The new 2018 Maruti Suzuki Ertiga is all set to go on sale in India today and we'll be bringing you all the live updates from the launch here. The second-generation Maruti Suzuki Ertiga comes with a bolder design, all-new styling, along with a bunch of new and updated features and equipment. The new-gen Ertiga is also based on the company versatile HEARTECT platform, which also underpins the new Swift hatchback and Dzire subcompact sedan.

Bookings for the MPV were opened early this month.
