Thanks for the pics

Are those cooling vents placed in the cubby holes? A very nice way of getting your drinks cold instead of placing the bottle/can on those retractable holders.

What is with Maruti using faux wooden trims on most of their cars interiors. Hired lot of carpenters in design department? Oh may be they think that the (fake) wooden touches increase the premium of the not so premium (quality) interiors. I am happy to see them taking the legacy forward by using those power window switches (pun very much intended). Will I ever be fortunate enough to see a different power window switch design in their cars in this life time.

Thanks for sharing the pics. In this photo, the right hand empty space on the steering looks sad. Cruise control should have been there.

Yes, these Cooling vents are a Smart little adaptation.
You can see it in this Autocar Review at 5.50"

+1 . Very Aptly said.
The Former shade of Deep Rich Brown looked much better. This new Light shade gives a Cheap, Dull and Faded look to a Decent Interior.
Black Glossy or Soft Touch finishing would have given a more Premium look instead.

It's all in the name of the Great "VFM" Tag MS so proudly brags about. Actually MS is doing a favor not changing them and adding the Development Cost to the Indian Customer's Bill.

Am I the only one to feel that those interiors look like they are from the 90s? They look so outdated even with the floating touchscreen on the top trim. I have a feeling it will look worse in the lower variants. And, those fake continuous air con vents on the co passenger side look like a gawdy copy of the new generation Audi cars. Enough of mixed opinions have been expressed here about the exteriors as well. So not even going to touch that topic again. I feel the Marazzo is still a better value proposition even if it is a tad costly.

The completely redesigned back looks plain ugly in the pictures. It lost the flow and polish looks like an extra attachment now! Interior space looks much better, and more boot space seems to be available. New grills, resembles XUV, but are looking better than the old one.

It would be great to have a team-bhp review for the new ertiga. Lot of prospective owners including myself would appreciate it .Sooner the better

Even though I am eagerly waiting for the official reviews from team-bhp, I don't have much enthusiasm now regarding the latest Maruti offerings. More than the review, I would like to know the crash test rating of the new Ertiga. The sooner the better.

[Torquedo]

Looking at the substantial jump in the features on the Lxi, I safely assume that the jump on the ex-showroom price on the Lxi alone should be in the 50K ballpark.

For once MSIL has realised that the tachometer is a must have on all the variants.

Edit: 110000 increase, whoa, they are getting greedier and greedier selling these tin cans.
