| ![]() If a new BS6 ready/compliant petrol is available in market (we have a few examples now already), will it be registered as a BS6 before 1/4/2020 ? |

So if I understand correctly - to have a BS6 vehicle registered as BS6 one in all legit/transparent way, it has to be after 1st April 2020 - if a so called "BS6 Ready/Compliant" vehicle is registered before 1st April 2020, it would still be as BS4. I guess that'd have an impact on resale years down the line. | |

However, till the time that BS-VI fuel is available pan-India, it makes no sense to buy a 'BS-VI compliant' vehicle, register it as a BS-IV, and then use BS-IV fuel in it. Even as Delhi gets BS-VI fuels now, what about when the owner travels out of town? | |

| ![]() I feel that once BS6 comes into force carmakers should have a petrol variant and then for the 1lakh or so premium that currently exists for diesels they can have a hybrid petrol which will take care of some of the benefits of additional torque and mileage to some extent and then maybe have a diesel which I guess will be a 2 lakh premium in BS6 guise |

| ![]() As I stated earlier it will be only BS-IV. I had to delay my Civic by over a month since the 'official' BSIV came only them. I had a big discussion with Honda and the local sales guys, and it was tough to convince them that BS-IV compliance is not BS-IV. Finally I asked them, can you get me an RS which says BS-IV which they finally said No to. Earlier you had a three month overlap where the old car could be sold. Now the overlap is NIL. So naturally a lot of BS-VI hardware will be sold and registered as BS-IV. |

| ![]() https://www.autocarindia.com/car-new...ost-bs6-413133 Both the Grand i10 and next-gen Xcent will be powered by the same 1.2-litre BS6 diesel motor and the cost increase, according to a company source, “will be around Rs 30,000 – 40,000.” This figure is significantly lower than Maruti Suzuki’s estimate of a Rs 2,00,000 cost escalation going from BS4 to BS6 The 1.2-litre U2 is the only (and possibly the last) three-cylinder diesel engine remaining in India. First Mahindra and now Hyundai, saying that BS6 cost increases are not going to be a jolt to the pocket. With the refined diesels, and the space vacated by Maruti DDIS, looks like Hyundai is going to have a free run in that segment |

| ![]() Looks like my next car will again be a Hyundai diesel. I love diesels for their torque and if Hyundai can offer a BS6 diesel at a slight premium of 30000rs over a BS4, definitely I will stick with diesels. |

Distinguished - BHPian ![]() ![]() | ![]() Will statements like these ( below) curtail the demand of diesel cars with uncertainty looming at large. Will it trigger other states / districts to ape this trend? Quote:

| ![]() This will be interesting to see. If Hyundai can, why can't others? More so none of the other players are ready with mass market electric (with reasonable range) or a hybrid per say. Now with this announcement, Hyundai will two strong offerings beyond 2020 - Mass market diesel as well as mid size diesel (1.5 litre) - Strong electric (Kona) which takes care of the range anxiety of buyers Is it possible that HMIL along with Kia motors can tilt the market in their favour with this differentiation? HMIL - Every hurdle is an opportunity !! |

| ![]() One doubt which I have been having is that, the BS6 ready cars, when customers are purchasing them, in 2019 and before April 2020, they will be registered as BSIV in the RC book. Is there any provision to get that updated to BS6 automatically post April 2020? Is there any concrete information in this regard? Many of my friends have been asking this, as in, is there any difference between buying a BS6 ready car now or after April 2020 ? |
