Automobile Research Association of India (ARAI) has certified that HM-Mitsubishi Motors’ ‘Outlander’ has surpassed the BS IV (Bharath Stage Four) emission. The certificate - “AAEN0339†was awarded to Mitsubishi Outlander on 30th May ’09.’Outlander’ becomes the SUV (Sports Utility Vehicle) in India to be awarded so by ARAI.Â
BS IV emission norms are stringent rules which the government of India is implementing to reduce the harmful effect of automobile emission on the environment.
BS IV will be effective on all new automobiles sold in India from April 2010 in the eleven cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad, Kanpur, Agra, Pune and Surat.
Mitsubishi Outlander’s MIVEC (Mitsubishi Innovative Valve lift and timing Electronic Control) technology limits the vehicular emissions well within BS IV standards even with BS III fuel, making Outlander the most environment friendly SUV in the country today.
