FINAL REPORT

By CarWale Team27 Mar 2011

Long-Termer report of the Skoda Laura

Clean Conscience

Since the Bharat-Stage IV norms were implemented across thirteen major Indian cities earlier this year in April 2010, all the auto makers had to tweak their engines to comply with the new emission standards. Most did this simply by altering their engine manifold and timing or by adding another oxygen sensor.
