Chevrolet Beat diesel is most efficient now officialy

GM’s Beat diesel has laid claim to the title of India’s most fuel-efficient car after it was re-tested at the International Centre for Automotive Testing (ICAT) and officially certified with a fuel consumption figure of 25.4kpl. This is a five percent improvement over the Beat diesel’s original 24kpl.

Crucially, the improved figures take the Beat diesel past the 25kpl figures achieved by Indica eV2 and Indigo eCS, which until now were fuel-efficiency champs. GM says the improvements came after minor tweaks to the engine calibration and reduction of frictional losses in other parts of the drivetrain.
