M&M, the country’s biggest sport utility vehicle (SUV) maker, is working on smaller fuel-efficient petrol engines to power its future growth, likely to be driven by overseas markets. M&M wants to reduce its dependence on diesel-enabled engines and offer new engine options. It sells SUVs like Scorpio, Bolero and Xylo.
With the help of AVL of Austria, a consulting and powertrain systems development company, it is developing petrol engines. Smaller fuel-efficient petrol engines are much sought after in markets like the US, Europe, west Asia and Africa. Tighter global emission norms and high fuel costs have compelled many automotive companies to go for smaller engines and smaller vehicles.
Mahindra is developing new models, including a mini Xylo, which could require petrol engines for particular markets. It has also developed a diesel-driven, pick-up version of the Scorpio for the US market, but may explore a petrol engine for it, too.
