Mahindra & Mahindra (M&M), one of India’s leading automobile manufacturers, has announced that it will fully honour all warranty commitments for customers who use E20 fuel in their vehicles. The company released an official advisory for customers and dealers, making it clear that its engines are fully compliant with existing fuel standards, including petrol blended with 20% ethanol.
In its statement, Mahindra reassured customers that there will be no impact on performance, reliability, or warranty benefits when using E20 fuel. The company also instructed dealers to guide customers properly, so they can confidently shift to ethanol-blended petrol without confusion or worry.

E20 fuel is part of the Government of India’s clean energy roadmap, which aims to reduce oil imports, lower carbon emissions, and support farmers through higher ethanol production. The fuel is a mix of 20% ethanol and 80% petrol, and it is being introduced in phases across the country. While some vehicle owners have raised concerns about the long-term impact of ethanol-blended fuel on engine life and efficiency, Mahindra’s clear statement is meant to build trust and remove doubts.
The move is significant because customer confidence plays a key role in the wider adoption of E20 fuel. By assuring warranty coverage, Mahindra has shown its commitment to sustainability and customer-first policies, while also supporting India’s national fuel goals. This proactive step reflects the company’s strategy of aligning with future mobility needs while continuing to safeguard its customers’ interests.
Industry experts believe that more automakers will follow this path, as India gradually moves toward higher levels of ethanol blending, such as E27 and E30 in the coming years. For now, Mahindra customers can be assured that their vehicles are safe, compliant, and fully supported under warranty, even with the use of E20 petrol.
With this announcement, Mahindra has positioned itself as a responsible automaker that not only supports government initiatives but also prioritises customer peace of mind as India transitions toward cleaner, greener fuels.
