The BS-6 Compliant Ertiga: Now Even More Practical to Own

The second-generation Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is a surprisingly capable 7-seater MPV that offers a lot for its price in terms of space and practicality. One of India’s most popular and most trusted MPVs, the Ertiga has always been a great choice for large families and fleet owners alike who are looking for more than average space in a car in a budget.

Power at its Core

The Ertiga’s dimensions and controls make it a pleasure to drive. It can reach high speeds and offers great performance for a car of its size. In 2020, Maruti Suzuki discontinued the diesel variants of the Ertiga in India in-line with the company’s commitments towards manufacturing BS-6 compliant cars.

The K15 1.5L petrol engine, that complies with BS-6 emissions norms, is engineered to deliver a remarkable performance while ensuring a pleasurable driving experience. With 77 kW max power, it is a pleasantly refined and efficient car and gets the job done. The all-new engine is offered in both the manual and automatic transmission cars. The Ertiga automatic car delivers an excellent fuel efficiency of 17.99 Km/l while the manual variant delivers 19.01 Km/l. The 5-spped manual gearbox is quite functional, while the automatic transmission of the car adds increased convenience to the whole experience. All the variants of the Ertiga are offered with the Smart Hybrid technology that further increases its fuel efficiency.

Sculpted to Stand Out

The new Ertiga dons an elegant, premium look with noticeable body lines and an aerodynamic nose. The chrome studded front grille and the multi spoke alloy wheels look stunning on the Ertiga, and the front projector headlamps along with LED tail lamps steal the show. To the typical buyer, however, the interior of the Ertiga sparks more interest. The Ertiga offers functional and flexible space for up to 7 adults, with the third row being habitable by someone other than kids as well.

The sculpted dual-tone dashboard looks really premium with wooden trims, so does the flat-bottom steering wheel; the car offers all the features you need for a comfortable and convenient drive with your family. For increased comfort, the Ertiga also offers AC vents for the second row, headrests for all the three rows, power charging sockets, and ample storage space throughout the car. For entertainment on the go, Ertiga comes with the SmartPlay infotainment system with multi-source connectivity.

Safety is also taken care of in the all-inclusive Ertiga. Based on the HEARTECT platform, new generation Ertiga gets improved safety, rigidity, and NVH performance. It gets dual airbags and ABS with EBD as a standard apart from rear parking sensors, child seat anchors and high speed-alert.
