Maruti Ertiga Launched in India bestselling family MPV, has received a meaningful mid-cycle refresh for 2025, and the first units have already begun reaching dealerships across India.
The update focuses on making the Ertiga roomier and safer while keeping the proven powertrains and the value-for-money positioning that made it a hit.
What’s Changed at a Glance
- Longer body (+40 mm): Overall length now 4,435 mm, improving third-row comfort. Width, height, and wheelbase are unchanged.
- Exterior tweaks: Extended roof-mounted rear spoiler and refreshed tail-lamps/tailgate for a cleaner, more contemporary rear design.
- Safety step-up: Six airbags are now standard across all variants, joined by all-seat 3-point seatbelts; a TPMS is added on higher trims.
- Cabin & convenience: Reworked AC layout for better 2nd/3rd-row cooling, additional USB-C charging ports (front and 3rd row in higher trims), new headrest for the 2nd-row middle seat, and a PM2.5 filter on top variants.
- Variants retained: LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi+.
- Engines unchanged: 1.5-litre K15C petrol with manual/automatic options; CNG continues with a 5-speed manual.
Styling & Dimensions: Subtle Updates, Meaningful Space Gains
Visually, you’ll spot the extended rear spoiler and fresh tail-lamp graphics, while the front fascia remains familiar. The important change is dimensional: at 4,435 mm, the Ertiga is 40 mm longer than before. That extra length is targeted at improving third-row legroom, addressing the most common family-MPV pain point without altering the 2,740-mm wheelbase.
Maruti’s own published specs for the Ertiga Tour M—the commercial/fleet sibling that shares the body—also list 4,435 mm length, 1,735 mm width, and 1,690 mm height, which corroborates the new size.
Safety & Features: Big Leap Where it Matters
For 2025, six airbags are standard on every Ertiga, not just the top trims. This follows Maruti Suzuki’s broader rollout of six airbags across its lineup and was accompanied by a small price adjustment industry-wide.
Cabin usability gets a boost via a revised AC setup that improves airflow to the 2nd and 3rd rows. You also get USB-C ports at the front, and on ZXi/ZXi+ trims, two USB-C ports for the 3rd row; a PM2.5 filter debuts for cleaner air in top variants. The popular kit remains—a 7-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, Arkamys-tuned audio, and Suzuki Connect on higher trims.
Maruti’s official Ertiga page continues to underline the HEARTECT platform and the six-airbag rollout, reinforcing the safety emphasis of this refresh. It also reiterates seven-seater practicality and 209-litre boot space (expandable to 803 L with the third row folded).
Powertrains & Mileage: Same Reliable Setup
Mechanically, the Ertiga stays with the familiar 1.5-litre K15C smart-hybrid petrol (103 PS/139 Nm), paired with a 5-speed manual or 6-speed torque-converter AT. The factory CNG option remains (87 PS/121.5 Nm) with a 5-speed manual. ARAI efficiency figures carry over (indicatively ~20.5 km/l for MT, ~20.3 km/l for AT, and ~26.11 km/kg for CNG), which is why Ertiga remains a cost-of-ownership favourite for large families and fleet buyers.
Price & Variants In 2025
With safety upgrades made standard in mid-2025, Maruti revised Ertiga pricing; the current ex-showroom range sits roughly between ₹9.11 lakh and ₹13.40 lakh (variant and city dependent). LXi, VXi, ZXi, and ZXi+ continue as the four trims, available in petrol (MT/AT) and petrol-CNG (MT). As always, check your local dealer for on-road offers.
Should you buy it?
If you already liked the Ertiga’s balance of price, space, and running costs, the 2025 update strengthens the case. The third-row comfort is better thanks to the extra length, and standard six airbags raise the safety baseline for every family. Those expecting headline-grabbing tech (e.g., ADAS) won’t find it here, but in a segment where practicality and cost rule, the refreshed Ertiga looks squarely on target.
