0

In what could be a big development for automobile companies such as Tata Motors, M&M, and Ashok Leyland, the Ministry of Road Transport has issued a draft notification, asking the firms to start the production of hydrogen-powered vehicles.

The ministry has proposed that the companies produce Hydrogen IC engines for the M and N categories of vehicles.

To know automobile companies’ views on the same, the government has asked for suggestions and objections from them in 30 days.

In its notification, the ministry said that all engines will use compressed hydrogen in gas form.

Passenger trains are considered M-category vehicles, while goods trains fall under the N category.
