The carmaker says that Honda has applied its advanced exhaust gas after-treatment system with NSC (NOx Storage Catalyst) and DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter) to meet the challenging target of particulate matter (PM) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission in case of diesel engines. Honda's original Silver Thin Coated DPF (STC-DPF) enables reduction of  PM combustion time by 40% compared to the conventional DPF, the carmaker adds.

The petrol model will be equipped with BS-6 compliant 1.2L i-VTEC petrol engine in both manual and CVT.
