The noise the engine produces is also very low and the vibration and harshness also cannot be felt much in Ertiga.
Where Maruti is cherishing the moments of happiness aroused by Ertiga, there is one SUV coming that will match to Ertiga sales in India. The
Renault Duster SUV is expected to share the same fundamental as the Ertiga – keep the start price down and see the wonders. It was Ertiga that started low and so is the Duster SUV expected to start between Rs 7 lakh to Rs 8 lakh or less as well. If that happens Duster will be another star performer of the Indian car industry after Ertiga.
