Most of the car manufacturing giants are in process to line up their petrol cars with the diesel variants in India. General Motors is not an exception as GM India is also lining up most of its petrol cars with a diesel engine variant. The diesel cars are in great demand in India these days as the petrol prices are increasing on regular intertvals in the country which leaves the Indian car buyers with no choice but to look for a diesel car. Keeping this in mind that General Motors India is looking to enhance its diesel car fleet in India and in this line the launch of Chevrolet Beat diesel this month is the first step. The company is likely to adapt the same strategy for other petrol car models too.
