Ford to make engines in India

Following Hyundai and GM, Ford has started building a new engine-making facility in India, which will make 300,000 petrol and diesel engines. However, the the ratio of diesel to petrol Ford going to produce here is not yet revealed. Ford will use these engines to cater to the needs of not just India but also to the entire Asia-Pacific region and the European market. Ford India currently sells Ikon, Fusion and Fiesta in India for which it buys its petrol engines from the Rs570-crore Avtec Ltd, a GP-CK Birla group company. Also, it assembles the Endeavour SUV for which it imports engine from Europe.
