I believe you are referring to old ertiga. New ertiga has bigger space in 3rd row.

It's not just the third row but middle row as well. I'm not sure if that changed in the new model.

100 mm increase in length , 40mm in width and 5mm in height. These are the dimensions of the New Ertiga over the old one. Boot space from 130 ltrs to 209 with reclining 3rd seats ( in 3 stages). There is no alternative to an urban runabout which can carry 7 people and luggage in reasonable comfort . The price being the icing on the cake. Marazzo might be a good car but its bulkier and more expensive. Final point of concern - People who need a fuel efficient petrol will go with the Ertiga . No 2 ways about it

What is even more amazing is that it lost to the 2nd placed Amaze by a mere 39 votes. Out of a total of approximately 1926 votes casted, 39 is a very small number. Volvo must take great pride in this and should work to convert this result into actual sales numbers.

I am not sure about the old ertiga. New ertiga I saw yesterday had movable and reclining 2nd row seats. Where as the 3rd row had only reclining seats. Salesguy was boasting the new ertiga is way better than older version.

Re: Team-BHP Car of the Year, 2018. EDIT: It's the Mahindra Marazzo

I saw the Marazzo's ad on The hindu and TOI today. They've showcased the various entities that have chosen Marazzo as the car of the year and it includes our Team BHP logo as well. However, TeamBHP's logo wasn't clear in the print. This must be a shortcoming in the print but, I feel, a logo with a white background can be prepared and this can be included in our media kit to be used in various print publications. Just a thought...

A high resolution logo must be made available for print media use.

Marazzo Ad in today's Malayala Manorama newspaper (Kerala). Mahindra has highlighted Team-BHP's selection of Marazzo as Car of the year. As pointed out in previous posts logo is a bit hard to read.

Re: Team-BHP Car of the Year, 2018. EDIT: It's the Mahindra Marazzo

Shouldn’t there also be a PreOwned car of the year as on date? which calls out how a certain pre owned model/variant wins :
1. while being in its 2nd to 4th year and the VFM/features vs new

2. Competing vs new launches but still leads in the options one has while buying a suv, sedan, hatch or MPv

Like say one is up to spend 5 to 15 lacs, in 2018 what are the top options in new and PreOwned vehicles
