Maruti Suzuki has launched the BS6 complaint Ertiga in India for a price of Rs 8.95 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The CNG variant of the Ertiga was launched in July last year and now, it has been updated to the BS6 norms. With the BS6 update, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga CNG sees a hike in price by Rs. 7,000.
Other than the BS6 compliance, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga CNG otherwise remains completely unchanged. It is still only available in a single, mid-spec VXi variant, and comes with the same list of features and safety kit. With the BS6 update, Maruti Suzuki has however not compromised on the output from the engine. The K15B petrol unit continues to make 92hp and 122Nm of torque when run on CNG.
The fuel efficiency has however taken a hit with the BS6 update. The ARAI mileage has reduced marginally from 26.2km/kg in BS4 form to 26.08km/kg. The Japanese company also announced today that over 5.28 lakh units of the Ertiga have been sold since the MPV had first launched about nine years ago.
