India Mulls Relaxing Fuel Efficiency Rules for Small Cars

India Mulls Relaxing Fuel Efficiency Rules for Small Cars

Imagine cars have to be really fuel-efficient to help the planet.

Right now, all cars have to meet these rules, but small cars are struggling to keep up because not as many people are buying them.

Maruti Suzuki, a big car company, is asking the government to make the rules a little easier for small cars.

The government is thinking about it because they want to help the car industry.

If the rules change, it might mean small cars don't have to be as super-efficient as before.

Other car companies also make small cars, so they are watching to see if the rules will change.
