Much awaited MPV of the year, Maruti Eritiga finally launched at price of 5.89 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The car is available in six variants, price starts from 5.89 lakh for base models Lxi petrol verion all the way up to 8.45 lakh for fully equipped Diesel model. Maruti Ertiga is probably the most searched passenger vehicle on Google in the country at the moment. Ertiga will offer you a choice of both petrol and diesel models. A brand-new 1.4-litre VVT petrol, capable of making 95PS @ 6000rpm and a rather decent 130Nm of torque @ 4000rpm. The diesel on the other hand, is the tried-and-tested, state-of-the-art 1.3 DDiS diesel unit fitted with a turbocharger and churns out 90PS @ 4000 rpm and a solid 200Nm of torque @ 1750 rpm. Both models are mated to a five-speed gearbox, and from what we experienced makes for a great drive both in the city and along the highways. The high-end variants of this 5+2 seater from Maruti Suzuki get best in class comfort features like electronic power steering, power windows, steering-mounted audio controls, a high-end stereo system with AUX/USB in, electronically adjustable ORVMs, air conditioning and heating with blowers for the second row of seats as well and safety features such as ABS, EBD and two front airbags being offered as standard on this vehicle. One of the stand out features in this MPV has to be its adjustable second and third row of seats which can easily be retracted or turned upright as and when required. The third row, which can comfortably seat two full sized adults is essentially your boot and when made flat provides sufficient room for basic luggage and storage equipment.
