Maruti Suzuki Ertiga Review

The new Ertiga wears a relatively premium look. Of more interest to typical buyers, however, is the cabin which scores really well on space with fair seating even for the third row of passengers. Sliding middle-row seats and folding third-row seats also add flexibility to the cabin.
The Ertiga’s city-friendly dimensions and light controls make it easy to drive; and the MPV also feels planted at high speeds. Long-distance drivers will be drawn to the 90hp, 1.3-litre diesel motor but it is sluggish in town with a full load – and also louder than it should be. The 105hp, 1.5-litre petrol is not punchy either but it gets the job done well enough. The petrol’s 5-speed manual gearbox is fine while the 4-speed torque converter automatic adds more convenience to the mix. All versions get mild-hybrid tech that aids fuel economy.
