NEW DELHI -- India will bring lower-emissions auto fuels to New Delhi two years ahead of schedule as the capital region's air pollution steadily worsens.
Gasoline and diesel fuel across the country currently conform to vehicle emissions standards known as Bharat Stage 4. Fuels meeting tougher BS-6 standards -- the government is skipping over BS-5 entirely -- were slated for nationwide introduction in April 2020. BS-6 is equivalent to the latest set of European emissions restrictions and held to be the global standard.
