All-New Maruti Suzuki Ertiga Bookings Officially Open

Maruti Suzuki India has officially opened bookings for its all-new upcoming MPV, the second generation Maruti Suzuki Ertiga. We had already told you that the company is all set to launch the new generation of the Ertiga on November 21, 2018. The company will make the new MPV available only through the Maruti Suzuki Arena dealership networks. Bookings have kick started from today at these dealerships and the new Maruti Suzuki Ertiga can be booked by paying a booking amount of Rs 11,000. Maruti Suzuki has already said that the MPV will be available in both the petrol and diesel versions. India is no stranger to the Ertiga nameplate as the company has so far sold almost 4.2 lakh units in India. With the new generation model of the Ertiga, Maruti Suzuki will bring in a feature rich MPV which will have grown in terms of proportions and hence we hope, this one has a better third row seating arrangement.
