The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga has long been a favourite among Indian families, fleet owners, and anyone seeking a comfortable and efficient 7-seater. With its practicality, mileage, and affordability, the Ertiga carved a space that very few MPVs could match.
Now, stepping into 2025, Maruti Suzuki brings an updated Ertiga that’s more stylish, feature-rich, and—surprisingly—priced more affordably. The new model is designed to appeal to the modern Indian family that values comfort, technology, safety, and cost efficiency.
This detailed guide explores everything the 2025 Ertiga brings to the table—from design upgrades and cabin improvements to powertrain details and expected pricing.
1. A Fresh and Modern Exterior Design
Maruti Suzuki hasn’t changed the Ertiga dramatically, but the 2025 model carries enough updates to look more premium and contemporary.
Key Exterior Updates
- A redesigned front grille with a bold chrome finish
- New headlamp detailing with improved illumination
- Updated fog lamp housing
- Subtle improvements to the bumper for a more athletic look
- New dual-tone alloy wheels
- Fresh colour options, including premium metallic shades
These design enhancements give the MPV a fresh identity, making it look more appealing on the road without losing its familiar and family-friendly appearance.
The new Ertiga continues to maintain its tall stance, wide cabin structure, and generous ground clearance, ensuring smooth performance even on uneven rural or semi-urban roads.
2. A More Comfortable and Feature-Rich Cabin
The Ertiga’s biggest strength has always been its spacious cabin. The 2025 version builds on this by adding more comfort and tech features while maintaining the practicality Indian families love.
Interior Upgrades and Comfort Features
- A new dual-tone dashboard with premium wooden inserts
- Revised seat upholstery with improved cushioning
- Adjustable headrests for all three rows
- Enhanced cooling performance from the AC vents
- Updated steering-mounted controls
- A larger and clearer touchscreen infotainment system
Space remains one of the biggest highlights. Even with all three rows in use, the Ertiga continues to offer decent boot space, and the flexible seating arrangement allows families to create extra room when needed.
New Technology Features
The 2025 Ertiga adopts more advanced tech, bridging the gap between compact MPVs and modern mid-size SUVs.
Expected tech updates include:
- A larger 9-inch touchscreen system
- Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Connected car tech with vehicle status, location tracking & alerts
- Engine start/stop button
- Cruise control
- Paddle shifters (for automatic variants)
- USB Type-C fast charging ports
- Rear camera with dynamic guidelines
These features improve the daily driving experience while keeping passengers entertained and connected.
3. Enhanced Safety for All Passengers
With increasing focus on safety in India, the 2025 Ertiga arrives with improved safety systems.
Safety Features in the 2025 Model
- Six airbags (in higher variants)
- ESP (Electronic Stability Program)
- Hill-hold assist
- ABS with EBD
- Rear parking sensors
- Speed alert system
- Improved chassis rigidity
- ISOFIX child seat mounts
These features are essential for families who prioritise safety during long drives, road trips, and daily city commuting. Maruti has also worked on improving overall stability and braking response.
4. Updated Powertrain: Smooth, Efficient, and Reliable
The Ertiga 2025 continues with Maruti’s trusted 1.5-litre petrol engine. What’s new is smoother driveability, better refinement, and improved fuel efficiency thanks to software updates and minor mechanical refinements.
Engine Options
- 1.5L naturally aspirated petrol engine
- CNG variant for economical running costs
Both engines are known for their long-term reliability, low maintenance costs, and fuel savings—key reasons why the Ertiga remains so popular across India.
Gearbox Options
- 5-speed manual
- 6-speed torque converter automatic
The automatic gearbox has been tuned to offer smoother shifts, while the manual remains light and city-friendly.
Mileage Improvements
The 2025 Ertiga is expected to deliver:
- Petrol: 18–20 kmpl
- CNG: 25–27 km/kg
This makes the Ertiga one of the most fuel-efficient 7-seaters in the country.
5. Lower Prices: More Value for Money
One of the biggest surprises is that Maruti Suzuki has revised the Ertiga’s pricing strategy. Instead of hiking prices, the company aims to make the new Ertiga even more accessible.
Expected Price Range (2025 Model)
- ₹8.80 lakh to ₹13.60 lakh (ex-showroom)
This pricing puts the Ertiga ahead of competitors like the Kia Carens, Renault Triber, and Honda’s upcoming MPV.
With better features and a lower starting price, the Ertiga positions itself as one of the most value-packed MPVs in 2025.
6. Variants and Who Should Buy Which
The Ertiga is offered in multiple variants, making it easier to choose based on budget and needs.
LXi Variant – Best for Budget-Focused Buyers
Ideal for small families and first-time car buyers wanting a spacious MPV at an affordable price.
VXi Variant – Balanced Choice

ZXi Variant – Premium Experience

CNG Variants – Best for High Usage

7. Why the Ertiga Still Rules the MPV Segment
After a decade of dominance, the Ertiga’s popularity remains unmatched. The 2025 update strengthens its position due to:
- Practical 7-seater layout
- Reliable petrol and CNG engines
- Low maintenance cost
- Strong resale value
- Maruti’s nationwide service network

Families love it. Fleet owners trust it. And with the 2025 refresh, new buyers have even more reasons to choose it.
