Members of Parliament raised a question in the house about why the government did not inform owners of non‑E20 vehicles about the mileage loss that has been reported in several models.
During a parliamentary session, several MPs asked the Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises why owners of non‑E20 vehicles were not notified about the reported mileage loss in certain models.
The question was raised after a series of consumer complaints surfaced, alleging that vehicles not equipped with the E20 fuel blend were experiencing a noticeable drop in mileage.
The government spokesperson was invited to explain the steps taken to investigate the issue and to clarify whether any consumer advisories had been issued.
MPs urged the ministry to expedite a comprehensive review and to ensure transparent communication with affected vehicle owners.
The debate highlighted the importance of timely consumer information in the automotive sector.
