"The launch of new BS VI Step 2 compliant petrol engines across the range will ensure a substantial reduction in emissions, thus contributing to a safer and cleaner environment," Renault India Operations Country CEO and Managing Director Venkatram Mamillapalle noted. He added that the company has also added extra safety features in the product lineup.

"Safety is of paramount importance to us, and the introduction of new class-leading safety features in our new 2023 range further reiterates our commitment towards offering products that can deliver the highest global standards of safety, accessible to Indian customers," Mamillapalle said.

The entire Renault range now comes equipped with an electronic stability programme (ESP), hill start assist (HSA), traction control system (TCS), and tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) as standard features.

Vehicles will need an on-board self-diagnostic device to monitor the real-time driving emission levels from April 1 this year. The device will constantly monitor essential parts for meeting emission standards, such as the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors, to keep a close watch on emissions.
