BEE to monitor Bharat Vecto as truck fuel-efficiency standoff drags on

“Bharat Vecto is being designed as a simulation tool to test real-world fuel consumption in Indian driving conditions for various truck duty cycles and configurations. Having a tool which can simulate actual conditions, including drive and duty cycles, condition of roads, truck model designs, vehicle component level data, etc., can give a clearer view of the vehicle’s fuel economy that will be recorded after sale,” said Ashim Sharma, senior partner and business unit head at Nomura Research Institute (NRI) Consulting and Solutions, India.
