These changes include updates to vehicle classification thresholds, fuel specifications, and emission testing provisions, alongside raising the weight limit for light petrol and diesel vehicles from 3,000 kg to 3,500 kg. Conventional petrol and E20 vehicles cannot use E85 or E100 fuels. The move supports reducing crude oil dependence and aligns with automakers' plans to launch flex-fuel models.]]></description>
