The 1.5-litre K15B petrol engine is the same engine which made its debut in India with the upgraded Ciaz in August. As standard, this engine comes with Suzuki’s mild-hybrid technology. This set-up uses a two battery layout. The diesel engine, just like before will also feature the SHVS technology. However, the later still comes with a single battery set-up only.
The next-generation Maruti Ertiga is based on the 5th generation HERTECT platform. This is the same underpinning on which the Baleno, Vitara Brezza, New Swift, New Dzire and the Ignis are based on. In addition to structural rigidity, the HEARTECT’s lightweight construction will also help in improving fuel-efficiency. Furthermore, it also helps in keeping the NVH level low.
