Carmakers may get more design freedom with easing of technical requirements
The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) is thinking about easing technical rules for four passenger-car parts. Officials discussed the plan with industry groups a few months ago. This is still only a proposal. If approved, carmakers would get more design freedom and lower testing and homologation (approval) costs. Watch for the formal notification before you plan any design or model changes.
