Launched in the year 2012, the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga created a new compact utility segment. The USP of the Ertiga, which made it an instant hit among buyers, is its car like handling and compact appearance, despite being a 7-seater. The Ertiga is available in three fuel options - petrol, diesel and CNG. The Maruti MPV is being offered in 10 variants, which include Lxi, Lxi (O), Vxi, Zxi, Zxi+, Ldi, Ldi (O), Vdi, Zdi and Zdi+. The Japanese carmaker is also offering the Ertiga in both manual as well as automatic options; however, the automatic is only available with the Vxi trim.

Christened as the Maruti Ertiga Vxi AT , the vehicle generates 92.5PS of power and 130Nm of peak torque from the 1373cc K-series petrol engine. It is linked to a four-speed automatic transmission.

Based on the Vxi trim, the Ertiga automatic gets the same features as seen on its manual counterpart. On the exterior, it gets chrome fog lamp bezel, a chrome grille, full wheel cap, turn indicators on ORVMs, electrically adjustable and foldable ORVMs and body coloured outside door handles and mirrors.
