JAMMU, June 9: Jamkash Vehicleads today launched the India’s most fuel efficient car `Calerio Diesel with a mileage of 27.61 KMPL.
The vehicle was unveiled by the General Manager Col (Retd) Rattan Singh, along with bankers of prominent banks in the presence of large number of customers and staff of the dealership.
On the launch, Col Rattan Singh said Celerio, powered by DDiS 125 engine, is India’s most fuel efficient car. “This is also the first diesel engine designed and developed by Suzuki Motor Corporation. It is designed to offer a smooth drive and strengthening Celerio’s reputation as a car that offers easy drive in cities as well as on highways. With the launch of Celerio Diesel, the three most fuel efficient cars in India are all Maruti Suzuki,” he added.
Sumit Malhotra, DGM Jamkash Vehicleades, said that DDiS 125 is compact and light weight. The cylinder block is all aluminium. DDiS 125 comes with a compact fuel distribution system and a turbocharger suited to a 2-cylinder engine. Further, by decreasing compression ratio and installing a large intercooler it has combined high torque in low RPM and fuel efficiency. Minimising friction, improving thermal efficiency, adopting low viscosity lubricants have also helped enhance the fuel efficiency in DDiS 125.
DDiS 125 derives its lineage from the DDiS family known for high quality driveability. By delivering peak torque at a low RPM the DDiS 125 engine on Celerio offers good ride in city conditions and on highways.
The compact turbocharger with intercooler delivers quick acceleration and smooth drive. Equipped with a hydraulic clutch system, Celerio Diesel offers effortless gear shift. Vehicle rigidity and powertrain integration has been optimised for lower vibrations and superior cabin isolation. This ensures comfortable passenger experience.
