It is twenty years and more since Maruti Suzuki has captured and retained leading position in the Indian auto sector. Now the company is about to launch Ertiga which has been designed in Japan and will be launched specially for Indian customers keeping in mind Indian needs and desires.

The Ertiga comes following success seen by other models such as the M800, Alto, Swift and WagonR which have all been modified to cater to Indian tastes and road conditions. Ertiga will be marketed mainly in India and will not be sold in Japan though it will be seen in Indonesian and other ASEAN countries with appropriate modifications made for their local conditions.

Ertiga will have a 1.3 liter diesel and 1.4 liter K series petrol engines. Compact, maneuverable and highly fuel efficient the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga will be placed in between the MUV and family sedan segment. Company sources have not revealed any pricing details but say that it will be competitively priced thereby creating a new category in the Indian car market.
