Fully geared up to support ICE, hybrid and electric vehicles
In order to reduce emission and to be committed to the environmental goals, the Government has prescribed norms such as Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFÉ), Faster Adoption & Manufacturing go Hybrid and Electric Vehicles (FAME) scheme and Bharat Stage VI (BS VI) to bring India at par with the rest of the world. Establishing such emission standards and norms will bring transformative changes in the Indian automobile industry. While there is no doubt that electric vehicles and hybrids will continue to grow, there is ample room for improving the efficiency of ICEs.
Schaeffler, a leading global automotive and industrial component supplier, provides a range of solutions that not only improves the powertrain performance and efficiency but also increases the reliability and safety. The company believes that globally 30 per cent of cars produced in 2030 would be using all-electric drive systems and 70 per cent will still have some form of ICE, either as the sole power source or in combination with an electric motor as in a hybrid.
