Maruti Suzuki will stop manufacturing diesel cars from April 2020

Maruti Suzuki is an automobile manufacturer in India, will stop selling and manufacturing diesel cars from April 2020.
The reason for stop making diesel-powered vehicles, because the cost to meet new emission rules will widen their price difference with petrol-run vehicles, especially in the segments where the company operates in.
The country’s largest car maker sold 4 lakh diesel cars in 2018-19 fiscal year. But demand for diesel vehicles in India has been declining since the country lifted control on diesel price in 2014, narrowing the fuel’s price difference with petrol.
