When it comes to 7-seater MPVs in India, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga has always been the go-to choice for middle-class families. Since its launch in 2012, the Ertiga has become synonymous with practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability. Now in 2025, Maruti Suzuki has introduced the all-new Ertiga 2025 with a refreshed design, modern technology, improved safety, and engines upgraded to meet the latest BS6 Stage 2 norms. Even with the new GST 2.0 tax structure, the Ertiga continues to remain one of the most affordable and value-packed MPVs in its segment.
Exterior Design
The 2025 Ertiga sports a more stylish and premium design than ever before. At the front, a bold chrome grille gives the MPV a commanding presence on the road. Sleek LED projector headlamps with DRLs add a modern touch, while sharp body lines and new diamond-cut alloy wheels enhance its overall appeal. At the rear, redesigned tail lamps and a refreshed bumper provide a dynamic look, making the Ertiga a perfect blend of elegance and practicality.
Interior and Comfort
Step inside the new Ertiga, and you are welcomed by a cabin that feels more premium and family-friendly. The dual-tone dashboard, leather-wrapped steering wheel, and soft-touch materials give it a luxurious feel. The 7-seater layout remains spacious, with sliding and reclining second- and third-row seats for added flexibility. Rear AC vents, multiple charging ports, and generous storage spaces ensure a comfortable experience for every passenger, even on long road trips.
Features and Technology
Maruti has packed the Ertiga 2025 with several advanced features. The highlight is the new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Connected car tech, cruise control, wireless charging, and automatic climate control further elevate the experience. Keyless entry with push-button start and a premium sound system make it more appealing. On the safety front, the Ertiga now offers up to 6 airbags, ABS with EBD, hill-hold assist, ESP, and a rear parking camera, ensuring a secure drive.
Engine and Performance
Under the hood, the Ertiga 2025 is powered by a 1.5L K-Series petrol engine compliant with BS6 Stage 2 norms, paired with either a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission. Maruti has also retained the CNG variant, making the Ertiga one of the most economical MPVs in its class. Thanks to the brand’s smart hybrid technology, fuel efficiency has improved significantly, reducing emissions and enhancing overall driving performance.
Mileage
Mileage remains one of the strongest selling points of the Ertiga. The petrol variant is expected to deliver 21-22 km/l, while the CNG variant offers an impressive 30-32 km/kg, making it one of the most fuel-efficient MPVs available in India. Hybrid assistance helps save fuel in both city and highway driving conditions.
Variants and Pricing (After GST 2.0)
The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga 2025 will be offered in four trims LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi+. Prices are expected as follows (ex-showroom):
- LXi: ₹9.20 Lakh
- VXi: ₹10.40 Lakh
- ZXi: ₹11.60 Lakh
- ZXi+: ₹12.80 Lakh
Even with the GST 2.0 price revisions, the Ertiga remains one of the most budget-friendly MPVs for Indian buyers.
Competitors
In the Indian market, the Ertiga 2025 competes with the Toyota Rumion, Kia Carens, and Mahindra Marazzo. At a lower price point, it also rivals the Renault Triber. However, its excellent mileage, affordable pricing, Maruti Suzuki’s extensive service network, and strong resale value give it a competitive edge.
