Maruti Suzuki continues to strengthen its position in the multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) segment with the refreshed Maruti Ertiga 2025. Known for its spacious cabin, fuel efficiency, and value-packed offerings, the new Ertiga builds upon its success by introducing a more refined design, updated features, and improved performance to meet the evolving needs of Indian families.
Design Upgrades That Make a Statement
On the outside, the Ertiga 2025 carries a slightly more premium look. It now features a redesigned front grille with chrome accents, sharper headlamp styling, and sleeker alloy wheels that give the MPV a more modern road presence. The rear section also gets subtle tweaks with refreshed tail-lamps and a new bumper design, making it more appealing from every angle.
Spacious and Smarter Interiors
Step inside the 2025 Ertiga, and you’ll find a more polished cabin. The dual-tone dashboard is enhanced with soft-touch materials and new wood-finish elements. One of the highlights is the updated SmartPlay Pro infotainment system with a larger touchscreen, wireless Android Auto & Apple CarPlay, and connected car tech features. There’s also a new digital instrument cluster and cruise control for added convenience.
With seating for seven, the Ertiga remains a true family car, offering flexible seat folding options, generous legroom, and improved third-row comfort. Rear AC vents, USB charging ports, and a cooled glovebox enhance the passenger experience on long drives.
Powertrain and Mileage
Under the hood, the 2025 Ertiga retains its reliable 1.5L K-Series Dual Jet petrol engine, now fine-tuned for better fuel efficiency and lower emissions. The engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed automatic with paddle shifters for smoother driving.
Fuel economy continues to be one of the Ertiga’s biggest strengths, offering up to 20.3 km/l in the petrol variant. There’s also a CNG version available, which makes it even more attractive for cost-conscious buyers looking for lower running costs.
Safety and Features
In terms of safety, the new Ertiga is equipped with dual airbags (up to 4 in higher variants), ABS with EBD, electronic stability program (ESP), hill-hold assist, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and rear parking sensors with a camera. These features ensure peace of mind, especially for families with kids.
Affordability and Variants
Maruti has kept the pricing competitive, with the base model starting around ₹8.69 lakh (ex-showroom). With multiple trims to choose from — including petrol, CNG, and automatic options — buyers can pick what best suits their needs and budget.
Conclusion: Still India’s Favorite Family MPV
The Maruti Ertiga 2025 continues to be a solid, dependable choice for Indian families. It combines functionality, comfort, fuel efficiency, and affordability into a package that very few can match in the MPV segment. Whether it’s for daily commutes, weekend getaways, or road trips with the entire family, the Ertiga proves once again why it remains a favorite across generations.
