Upcoming Update Brings Larger Boot Space To India’s Top-Selling Family MPV

India’s most popular family MPV is ready for a key upgrade in 2025. According to recent reports, the overall length of the Ertiga will increase from 4.39 meters to 4.43 meters. The longer body will make space for a larger boot, which has been one of the most requested changes by family buyers.

The wheelbase however will stay the same at 2.74 meters. This means the cabin design, legroom and seating comfort will remain unchanged. Buyers can expect the same three-row practicality, but with more space for luggage when all rows are occupied.

This development was largely anticipated as the Ertiga Tour M fleet version already features these extended dimensions. The manufacturer is now ready to roll out the change for regular buyers as well, making it standard across the lineup.

New Features On Offer

• Tyre Pressure Monitoring System : TPMS will now be standard on all trims. This system alerts the driver in case of low tire pressure improving road safety and reducing the chances of sudden tire related failures.
• Reworked AC Vents: The second-row AC vents will be repositioned for better cooling efficiency, ensuring rear passengers get improved airflow.
• Six Airbags Standard: In line with growing safety standards, the Ertiga range already comes with six airbags as standard. This upgrade led to a minor price hike earlier in 2025.

At present the MPV is available in 9- trims with prices ranging from ₹ 9.11 lakh to ₹ 13.40 lakh. With the addition of TPMS and other small changes prices may see a slight revision when the updated version arrives in showrooms

Engine And Gearbox Options

The 2025 Ertiga is not expected to make any changes under the hood. The MPV will continue with the tried and tested 1.5L K-Series petrol engine and a CNG option for cost-conscious buyers.

• Petrol Version:
  • Power: 102 bhp
  • Torque: 136 Nm
  • Gearbox: 5-speed manual and 6-speed automatic
  • Mileage: 20.51 kmpl (MT) / 20.3 kmpl (AT)
• CNG Version:
  • Power: 87 bhp
  • Torque: 121.5 Nm
  • Gearbox: 5-speed manual
  • Mileage: 26.11 km/kg

The petrol versions have a smooth performance both on city and highway, whereas the CNG version is aimed at low running costs. The Ertiga is a flexible car because it has both manual and automatic transmission, which makes it suitable to various buyers.

Why A Bigger Boot Is Important

One of the few complaints from buyers of the current Ertiga is the limited boot space when all three rows are in use. With just about 209 liters available, families often have to fold the third row to carry more luggage.

The upcoming update will fix this issue by offering more luggage room. For buyers, this means:

• Easier airport trips, with space for multiple suitcases without folding seats.
• Family holidays, where passengers can travel comfortably with all bags inside.
• Daily practicality, with groceries, school bags, or sports kits fitting more easily.

This simple but effective change strengthens the Ertiga’s position as a true family MPV.

What’s Coming Next

Alongside the Ertiga update, the company is also preparing to launch an all-new midsize SUV on 3rd September 2025. This SUV will be sold exclusively through the Arena channel and will sit between the Brezza and the Grand Vitara in the product portfolio.

The new SUV will challenge the market leaders such as Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. Its official name is yet to be confirmed but it is reported that it could be called either Escudo or Victoris.
