Maruti Suzuki has once again raised the bar for practical family cars with the launch of the new Maruti Suzuki Ertiga 2025. This updated Ertiga brings a fresh look, more smart features, and a hybrid powertrain that promises an impressive mileage of over 40 km/kg for CNG and around 26 km/l for the petrol hybrid. If you have been planning to buy a family MPV that balances space, fuel savings, and modern comfort, the Ertiga 2025 might just be the answer.
Stylish Yet Practical Design
The Ertiga 2025 sticks to its trusted MPV shape which Indian families love but adds fresh styling elements that make it stand out. The front now has a new chrome-finished grille that looks more premium. The dual-tone bumpers and the new headlamps with LED projectors give it a smarter road presence.
The alloy wheels, which range between 15 and 16 inches, add a sporty touch. Buyers will also like the new dual-tone colour options which add more appeal. At the back, the wraparound LED tail lamps and a small spoiler keep the look neat and balanced. The overall design is simple but effective for daily family use.
Spacious Interior for Large Families
Step inside the Ertiga 2025 and you will see why it is one of the best family MPVs in India. The cabin has been made more premium with a new dual-tone dashboard, wood finish inserts, and soft-touch materials that feel good to touch. The seats are wide and supportive for long highway drives. The three rows make it easy for seven passengers to sit comfortably.
There are roof-mounted rear AC vents to keep the entire cabin cool during Indian summers. The 2nd and 3rd-row seats are foldable, so if you need more luggage space for vacations or shopping trips, it takes just seconds to make more room.
Hybrid Engine for Higher Savings
The biggest highlight of the new Ertiga is its smart-hybrid powertrain. The new 1.5L K15 engine works with Maruti’s advanced Smart Hybrid tech. It produces about 103 PS in petrol mode and 88 PS in CNG. This combination gives you decent power for both city driving and highway cruising.
The hybrid system comes with auto start-stop which switches off the engine at signals and restarts when you press the accelerator, saving fuel in traffic. Regenerative braking captures the energy that would otherwise be wasted when you brake and reuses it for better mileage.
Excellent Mileage for Daily Use
Fuel efficiency is a big reason why Ertiga is popular and this new version does not disappoint. The petrol hybrid variant gives up to 26.1 km/l according to Maruti. If you pick the CNG model, it goes even higher, offering over 40 km/kg which is brilliant for families who travel daily.
Add to that Maruti’s low running costs and wide service network, and you get a family car that is light on the pocket even years after you buy it.
Tech Features for Smart Families
Maruti has given the Ertiga 2025 the latest features to make sure passengers enjoy every trip. The MPV now comes with a 7-inch SmartPlay Pro touchscreen that supports wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. You can connect your phone easily for music, maps and calls.
There is Bluetooth, USB fast charging and even a voice assistant for hands-free use. Parking in tight city spots is easier now with a rear camera and parking sensors. Top variants also offer connected car tech for added peace of mind.
Smooth Drive with More Choice
To suit different driving needs, Maruti gives two gearbox options with the Ertiga 2025. You can pick a 5-speed manual for full control or a 6-speed automatic which comes with paddle shifters. The automatic is smooth and takes away the stress of daily traffic.
The Ertiga’s suspension is tuned for comfort, so city potholes or long highway trips feel smooth. The steering is light for tight turns and city parking but stable enough for high-speed cruising too.
Price and Availability
Maruti has kept the Ertiga affordable as always. The ex-showroom price starts from ₹8.9 lakh and goes up to ₹13.5 lakh for the top model. With the hybrid variant, you not only get better mileage but can also benefit from lower emissions and government incentives.
The official launch date is July 2025 and bookings have already started at Maruti showrooms across India.
Perfect for Indian Families
From big joint families to people who take long highway trips often, the new Ertiga checks all boxes. It looks good, drives well, and offers plenty of features for daily comfort. The hybrid version is especially a smart pick for those who care about fuel savings and lower running costs in the long run.
Final Thoughts
The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga 2025 shows why it continues to rule the MPV segment in India. A roomy cabin, family-friendly features, modern hybrid tech and Maruti’s trusted after-sales make it a winning package. If you are planning to buy a family MPV that keeps everyone happy without burning a hole in your pocket, the Ertiga 2025 is worth checking out.
