Maruti Ertiga Review - Best family car

Are you looking for a Multi Purpose Vehicle (MPV) that can seat 5+2 passengers comfortably, having adjustable second and third row seats, adequate boot space, great comfort features, good fuel efficiency, low maintenance, best service network and affordable pricing?

Then MARUTI ERTIGA is the one to choose and is presently the best MPV in the country for its price and features. Moreover this car is from MSIL , better known for their reliability and excellent service network (read as ‘peace of mind’).  This car is marketed as LUV (life utility vehicle). 

The new powerful & responsive 1.4-litre VVT petrol engine and the tried & tested 1.3 DDiS diesel engine gives it adequate power and good ride both in city as well as in highways.  The top end variant has all the comfort features that one expect in a MPV like this such as electronically adjustable ORVMs, power windows, steering-mounted audio controls, a high-end stereo system with AUX/USB in, electronic power steering, air conditioning and heating with blowers even for the second row of seats. In addition to this, it has safety features such as ABS, EBD and two front airbags. These airbags are offered as standard on this vehicle.

Another important attraction for this MPV other than the flexi seating is its smart pricing that pose a big threat for other players such as Toyota Innova, Mahindra XYlo, Mahindra Scorpio. 

When compared with Innova, this MPV is cheap, feature rich and gives better mileage. 

The ex showroom price (in Delhi) ranges from Rs 5.8 Lakhs (petrol base model) to Rs.8.5 Lakhs (top end diesel model). Both petrol and diesel has three variant each such as LXi, VXi, ZXi for petrol and  LDi, VDi, ZDi for diesel. The car is definitely the best family car available in the country for that price and features.

Finally, the question that surround everyone’s mind is the mileage and when we talk about Mileage, Maruti always bring some good news along with any new entrant. The average mileage for petrol models would be 16-17 Kmpl wheras the diesel model can give you a decent mileage of about 21 Kmpl. Is this the one that you are looking for?
