Maruti Suzuki Ertiga [2012-2015] User Reviews

Exterior Look and feel is very good but the outside body is very delicate.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) All the feature are good, good space, good music system and comfortable.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is bit smooth but some times problem with gearbox while changing from 3 to 4 or 2 to 3, need press the cluch fully. And cmg to millage, I am getting 14 to 16 even in city traffic or highway driving. I drove till 1400KM with 40 to 70 KMPH avg speed. Till now not crossed 85KMPH in highways, still can't see more than 16 KMPL.

Final Words Better go for VDI insted of ZDI

Areas of improvement Automatic Side mirrors : Folding, Rear Viper for VDI

Music player with Bluetooth, Seats frabric should be more quality. Pls suggest me to improve the Fuel economy for my Diesel Ertiga VDI ?

Good Space, Pick up and styleMillage, Dent pron

Looks like an extended hatchback and not a van. Reverse parking camera is a must for this vehicle. There is very little space in the boot, but you can free up a lot of space by folding the third row seat.

Can seat 7 average sized adults in comfort (5 foot 8 inches height). Dashboard plastics look good but rattle especially when driving on concrete roads. AC is very good even in the third row. Music system is good.

The petrol engine is very smooth but a little sluggish at low RPM. I am getting a Fuel Economy of 11 KM / L. Gearshift is smooth and effortless.

Ride Quality is exceptionally good. There is good feedback from the tyres and steering is precise. Cabin insulation should have been better to keep out engine and external noise.

Dont expect innova level comforts and engine performance since you are paying a lot less. The innova is a foot longer with better space in the third row. It is however a lot heavier with a lower mileage.

The dashboard rattling can become irritating at times. Maruti should pay serious attention to this problem since it is occuring in a new car.

Exterior looks good, Good colours, beige interiors, SpaciousSome rattling of the dashboard plastics, Absence of reversing sensors and camera and bluetooth

Exterior Great style. Though I do not like innova. I liked this style.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very spacious. Become a great networker after this car. lot of cousins visit home and lot of colleauges come with me! I have many more friends at work place. It almosts costs nothing to give a extra ride.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Zero maintainence cost. Excellent milage.. Filled diesel for Rs1000, we reached coimbatore from chennai without a re-fuel. After a switch from the petrol vehicle. This is amazing. my office is about 40 kms from home. After getting a reserve light I can make a return trip from office without filling in between. It always brings you home.

Ride Quality & Handling No body roll like innova. Family really feels at ease with the drive in  this car ratther than my old petrol I10.

Final Words I bought this instead of skoda rapid.. I do not regret it. The choice of automobile in India is no more based on advertisements.. its the best what the company could offer me. I have never visited my service station. my vehicle gets picked up at office and delivered back at office - Hey I feel like a king!! If I am able to take more money home.. who cares about the Germans anyway.

Areas of improvement Maruthi can thinik of giving a tank ful instead of 5 liters (I know I am greedy - who isn't btw)!!

Milage, manoeuvrability in the city, no maintenance costNo good competitor

I purchsed Ertiga VDI model  in October 2014 and till now clocked 3000 Km. I thouroughly enjoyed the driving. It has good suspension aswell. I find the  Exterior design is attractive and I find the interiort also good posh look. Driving is very smooth and give about 17to18 Km/litre of deisel . Still I find the driver seat should have more height as the view is quite disturbing. Its quite comfortable for 5 person and for carrying 7 person rear seat coud bave been little more spacious, but managable stll extra length in the Boot could have been better as now it is unable to keep travelling basket or travelling luggage. I keep a small cardboard box to keep my things.But . Engine performance is very good . No noise in the cabin and the Aircondition is very good. Interior look is also good.surely its a value for money. Need to improve on driver seat height and boot space.

Final Words

 good to have and nice to drive. I am enjoying the vehicle already driven 11000km with in one year

Areas of improvement  

 luggage, if luggage problem solve then this is the best vehcile compare to any other vehcile. power for this vehcile specialy it face problem in ghat sections.

 

i used to sit last row by watching road nicely with speed between 80 to 100space for luggage is very low. if we carry on top it likes taxi of olden days. Ghat sections problem

Exterior the styling is better than inova. in the new anniversary edition the front grills come with silver and makes the vehicle very unique. :)

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)interiors are very comfortable particularly the second row of the car feels like god! because the second row also has the pushback options with front and back side hence makes a great ride than any other car.... considering the music system in zdi the looks are great, but the controls in it is not fair. we cant select a song on the play of another song like i20 and etc.. cars. a song can be heared after selecting directly or changing one by one.... but the rest is very good. the third row is also very good. two members can be seated perfectly.and the back two rows are fully foldable. and the roof ac vents are great.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox:the car fells very good for driving. it is very smooth to drive.regarding mileage it is very economical.gearbox is like butter changable.

 

Ride Quality & Handling: excellent riding and it is with abs with ebd. great to handle.

 

Final Words: ertiga is a very sutiable car for small and big families.it is a all time season luv.

everyone will defneatly like it. can buy with out any doubts of thinking. good product from suzuki. finally it is the innova for the middle class families.! :)

 

Areas of improvement  music system features. can give bluetooth compatibility and power outlets.automatic climate control will be effective if added.

 

 

space,styling,riding,driving ,mileage.. etc.music system features.

Exterior Are good look decent give the feel of Innova or we can say Mini Innova

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) they are really imprasive We can drive it very comfortable on lond run, recentelly drive from delhi to naintal total driven 700 km in trip but not any back pain or lazyness etc that very nice, space in front and middle row is just like king size, but for the last row people, I feel very poor, even at the speed of 100 to 110 there is no engine noise when glass are close, quite impracive

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox  even the engine is 1250 CC but you will not feel any lack on highways, Yes but lazyness is there in low speed till 25 K.M  In 1st and 2nd Gare. Thing i do not like is Mileage which is very Important as we All know that Swift And Dezire gives mileage of 18 to 22, and If at peak it also give 24 to, But Ertiga after running 5000 Km its mileage is only 15 to 15.5 with A.C , As i am expecting something 18 that is trually not. Other wise i am happy with its performance. Most Important Its Fuel Tank is not of 45 Liters As said it is only 35 Liters, It get full in 2000 RS Diesal In delhi where today Diesal cost is 56 per liter

 

Ride Quality & Handling For that i will say Excellent

 

Final Words THe vehicle is Value for Money,

 

Areas of improvement Rear Row Space, Mileage is Average, Pickup up at Bigning

 

 

Good Space, Handlind and Drive FeelLast Row Leg Space, Starting Pick Up Upto 20 to 25 Speed, Not Very Great Mileage

Exterior

Exterior is good, average to say. Exterior doesn't matter much when you consider the engine aspects. Its more what you feel inside rather than outside. Still, a good looking car I would say. Add some side protectors to that, and you get a beautiful design. However, the tail lamps can be redesigned to give a more stylish and elegant look.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Interiors are okay. On the ZXi variant, you get all the creature comforts you aspire for. Music system is good enough for driving (who wants to rock and roll on the road). AC is good and pretty effective, I ifnd the manual AC better than ACC as in the manual version, you control the cabin temperature, while in the ACC, the car's computer does that job for you (who's that to decide how cold I want to be)

I would've been happy if the reflector strips at the back could have been real lights and work in tandem with the rear fog lamp. The trip meter is okay, most of the dash console is pretty easy to use and understand. NVH levels are quite good. Steering mounted audio controls are lovely. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

The engine is pretty refined, many a times I don't even know whether the ignition is on or off as the engine noise is so low. It takes off smoothly in first gear, though would have loved the longer gear ratios. Gearbox is fantastic and gear knob has a soft feel to it (love it though).

FE, the most important aspect, depends upon how you drive, volume of traffic, weather conditions, road conditions, etc, etc. So mine comes to around 16 in city and 18 on highway (yes mine is petrol -- ZXi) with mixed AC usuage. 

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride quality is not that plush, probably the suspensions are on the stiffer side. However, handling is very good and the car corners with ease despite being 1.65 m tall. Ride quality is better in the first row and decreases thereafter. With ABS and airbag present, I guess the safety factor is also addressed here.

Final Words

Okay, so the final words, I bought this car for VFM. Looks don't matter to me as long as the inner core is perfect. I installed a rear parking sensor, a rear parking camera with GPS and bluetooth (yes both of them), from MGA (to maintain the car's warranty) as they are quite helpful in the city too, leave alone the highway. We are a family of three, so my purpose of a VFM car is satisfied, couldn't afford a luxury brand so had to compromise on Maruti 😟.

But nonetheless, as long as my car is not banged or dented from anywhere (God forbid), its a perfect vehicle for small to medium families like us. It is spacious, has a decent sized boot (yes with the third row down I'm talking about) and can carry 4 adults in comfort (not 5).

Areas of improvement  

Boot space can be improved, third row leg room can be increased, car length would be good at 5 metres or something, fuel tank capacity can be made 80 or 100 litres something, etc.
