Our Verdict

Expert opinion and recommendation

The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga VDi is a versatile and practical choice for those seeking a spacious, reliable, and economical multi-purpose vehicle (MPV). My experience with the Ertiga has been overwhelmingly positive, particularly in terms of its spacious interior, which can comfortably accommodate up to 7 people, and its flexible seating arrangements. The driving position is commendable, offering better comfort compared to some of its counterparts like the Dzire. The engine performance, although not exceptionally powerful, is more than adequate for its intended use, providing a smooth ride up to 3000 rpm. Additionally, the Ertigas fuel economy is impressive, making it a great value for money. However, there are some minor drawbacks, such as the smaller horn pad and the use of fabric in various places that can get dirty easily. Overall, the Ertiga VDi is an excellent all-rounder that balances space, power, and economy, making it an ideal choice for family use.

Latest Updates

Recent news and announcements

The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga VDi variant now comes with a 1.5-litre DDiS 225 diesel engine, producing 94 bhp and 225 Nm of torque. This variant is priced at Rs. 9.87 lakh (ex-showroom) and features amenities like passenger airbags, engine immobilizer, and ISOFIX child seat anchorages. I believe the updated features and engine make the VDi a compelling choice in its segment.
March 15, 2024
The new Maruti Suzuki Ertiga has dropped the 1.3-litre diesel engine option, replacing it with a 1.5-litre DDiS 225 diesel engine. This change is due to the BS6 emission norms, making it financially impractical to upgrade the older engine. The new diesel engine produces 94 bhp and 225 Nm of torque. I believe this move will enhance the Ertigas performance and efficiency.
November 14, 2023
Maruti Suzuki has introduced a new cab variant of the Ertiga, the Tour M diesel, targeted at fleet operators. This variant is powered by the same 1.5-litre four-cylinder DDiS motor, delivering 94 bhp and 225 Nm of torque, paired with a 6-speed manual gearbox. The Tour M diesel is priced at Rs. 9.81 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). I think this will be a great option for those looking for a reliable and fuel-efficient fleet vehicle.
November 14, 2023
The 2019 Maruti Suzuki Ertiga was launched with the new 1.5-litre DDiS 225 diesel engine, marking a significant upgrade from the previous 1.3-litre diesel engine. The new engine is part of Marutis in-house developed powertrain and is expected to offer better performance and fuel efficiency. I believe this upgrade will make the Ertiga more competitive in the market.
April 30, 2019
Maruti Suzuki has discontinued the base variants of the Ertiga, including the LXI and LDI trims. This move means that the petrol Ertiga will now be offered with an optional automatic transmission across all variants. The V and Z variants continue to be popular, with the Z and Z+ variants constituting almost half of the sales. I think this strategy will help streamline the product lineup and focus on more popular trims.

The mileage of the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga VDi is one of its strong points.

Great family car in this budget

Summary

I purchased the Ertiga last month
It is a great family car, with ample leg space, smooth driving, and ultimate seating comfort. The performance of the AC is excellent and the rear ac vents also come with controls, which is an added benefit. The seating is very comfortable and the hand rests further enhance the experience. The car is very good for long road trips, as the engine is powerful and the fuel average is also very impressive. I bought the diesel smart hybrid variant, which gives a fuel efficiency of around 23-24 Km/l. Overall, a good car in this price range!
