Maruti Ertiga Engine Capacity & Performance of New Maruti Ertiga

As we have already mentioned, the Maruti Ertiga model will be rolled-out in both diesel and petrol variants. The petrol variant of the car will be powered by a 1.4 liter power train of Maruti’s latest K Series with VVT. The K14 engine is the largest K series engine so far. With a displacement of 1372 cc, the engine of Maruti Ertiga petrol with variable valve timing is expected to be capable of delivering a peak power of 95 bhp along with a peak torque of 130 Nm.


Both petrol and diesel version of the car will come coupled with a five speed manual transmission gearbox as standard. The automatic transmission version of Maruti Ertiga is expected to be launched in the country after a few months of the launch of Manual transmission version. All variants of the car will be compatible with the new generation BS-IV emission norms, thanks to the Maruti’s new age K series engine, which is not only better in fuel efficiency, but also emits lower Co2  in the environment.




The variable valve timing (VVT) technology in the mill of the Maruti Ertiga will assist in changing the timing of fuel intake so that continuous power generation takes place ensuring maximum use of engine power. In other words, the new technology guarantees maximum fuel consumption, engine performance and lesser emissions thereby increasing acceleration.


On the other hand, the Maruti Ertiga diesel will come powered by a 1.3L multijet turbo diesel engine with DDiS (Direct Diesel Injection System). The Maruti Ertiga diesel engine will come coupled with Variable Geometry Turbo (VGT) for better efficiency. The maximum power and maximum torque figures of the Maruti Ertiga diesel are expected to be 89 bhp and 200 Nm, respectively. This is the same engine that Maruti is sourcing from Fiat for its Swift, Ritz and Swift Dzire models.
