The Renault Nissan alliance is keen on manufacturing diesel engines in India. It is well known that the alliance’s manufacturing facility in Oragadam near Chennai manufactures vehicles and engines not just for the Indian market but for other markets as well, since the facility is a designated hub for international markets. It is therefore not surprising that Nissan and Renault are not worried about just the Indian market like Hyundai is, a concern that led to its placing the diesel engine manufacturing on the back burner.
