Which Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is the base model, and what does it cost?

The LXi, from ₹8.90L ex-showroom, is where the Ertiga range starts. Features you get even here: 6 airbags and ESC. What you give up against the top ZXi+: no rear parking camera, no touchscreen and no wireless CarPlay / Android Auto, and 8 more.

Which Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is the top model, and what does it cost?

The ZXi+ tops the range at ₹11.64L to ₹13.04L ex-showroom. Over the base LXi it adds rear parking camera, 7" touchscreen and wireless CarPlay / Android Auto, and 8 more.

What do the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga trim names mean?

A trim is a level of equipment, and Maruti Suzuki uses 4 names for them on the Ertiga: in its own order they run LXi, VXi, ZXi and ZXi+. The name is not the car, though: VXi alone covers 3 variants, differing in fuel and gearbox rather than in equipment, so the trim you settle on still leaves you a choice. Between them the 9 variants cost ₹8.90L to ₹13.04L, ex-showroom.

Is there a petrol Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, and what does it cost?

Yes. The cheapest is the LXi Petrol Mild Hybrid MT at ₹8.90L ex-showroom, and 7 of the 9 variants are petrol. You can have it either way: the cheapest petrol automatic is the VXi Petrol Mild Hybrid AT at ₹11.25L. For the gearbox on its own, look at the VXi, which sells both: ₹1.35L more as an automatic than as a manual.

Is there a CNG Maruti Suzuki Ertiga, and what does it cost?

Yes. The cheapest is the VXi CNG MT at ₹10.86L ex-showroom, and 2 of the 9 variants are CNG. It is manual only. If you want two pedals, the CNG is not the way in.

What is the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga mileage?

The mileage the maker prints is 20.5 km/l.

Which cars does the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga compete with?

The Ertiga runs ₹8.90L to ₹13.04L ex-showroom, and 2 other MPVs sell in the same money: the Toyota Rumion from ₹9.79L and the Kia Carens from ₹11.02L.

Is there a cheaper alternative to the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga?

Not among the cars it goes up against. The Ertiga is the cheapest of them at ₹8.90L ex-showroom, so a saving would have to come from a smaller car rather than a rival MPV.

Sorted by price.

₹9,31,040 to ₹15,78,445 on the road

Where that range comes from

Every price in the table is ex-showroom, the figure before road tax, registration and the rest of it. Road tax is set by the state you register in rather than by the maker, so what you actually hand over moves with where you live.

The two ends of that range differ in two ways at once: the bottom is the cheapest variant in the state that taxes it least, and the top is the dearest variant in the state that taxes it most.

Hold the variant still and only the geography moves: the LXi Petrol Mild Hybrid MT comes to ₹9,31,040 in Itanagar and ₹10,43,646 in Bengaluru, a difference of ₹1,12,606 on the identical car. You register where you live, so read that as a reason to check the quote you were given, not as somewhere cheaper to buy.

Comprehensive own-damage cover sits on top of all of it. That has been market-priced since 2007 and moves with the insurer and your no-claim bonus, so budget for it from real quotes rather than from any number here.

What owners and testers say

Independent evidence only. Never the maker’s own marketing.

+ Three genuine rows with a roomy, adjustable middle bench and big, airy windows+ The CNG returns 22.32 km/kg in Autocar India's real-world test against 26.11 claimed, which is remarkable for a seven-seater+ Composed on the highway even fully loaded, per Autocar India− Only a three-star Global NCAP result from 2019, under a protocol Bharat NCAP has replaced, and no Bharat NCAP rating since− Global NCAP rated the body structure borderline unstable and the footwell unstable, with pedal movement risking the driver's lower legs− A seatbelt pre-tensioner failed to work properly in that test

6 more things owners and testers say

+ Owners report very long lives: 2.32 lakh km on one car with only engine mounts and a steering rack replaced+ Modest running costs for the space on offer− Global NCAP's 2024 test of the Africa-spec car scored one star for adults and two for children, a different specification but the same nameplate and the same factory− The third row suits children or shorter adults, not three grown-ups on a long trip− Ride is a little firm at low speed when the car is empty− The petrol automatic drinks hard in traffic: one owner reports 8 to 12kpl in city running against a certified 20.51, and Autocar India's own testing puts the CNG's real-world figure well ahead of the petrol's in town

Why there is no overall score

Scores are our reading of published, independent evidence, not the manufacturer's, and we deliberately publish no single overall rating: a car can be excellent on safety and weak on resale, and one number would hide that. How we score, and how makers can respond.
