Get The Finest Craftsmanship in Diesel and Gas Engines from Weichai India

Engine is the heart of any heavy duty equipment as efficient engines often leads to more productivity, fuel efficiency, accuracy, reliability, lesser maintenance cost and saves time and boosts monetary savings in the long run.

Based on the fuel type, the engine market can be segmented into diesel, petrol and gas. Among these, diesel engine segment followed by the gas engine segment garners the largest market share and is expected to maintain dominance owing to their low operational cost, high demand from commercial and industrial segments coupled with the easy availability of diesel in India. In fact, according to 6Wresearch, Indian diesel engine market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 4.9 percent during 2018-2023. The key industries that use diesel engines are on-road (automotive), power generation, marine, off-road (agriculture, construction), mining and industrial application. In addition to the above, the presence of reputed power generation engine manufacturers in India like Weichai India is further expected to give a boost to the growth of both the gas and diesel engine industry in the country.
