YouTube user Ujjwal Saxena has shared live images of the 2018 Maruti Ertiga LXi with IAB, to show how the MPV's most basic equipment line looks like in person. Below is the image gallery of this entry-level offering.

Last week, the same YouTube user had posted a walkaround video of the VDi grade.

The uploader refers to the V trim level of the 2018 Maruti Ertiga as the 'Value for Money' variant. This is due to the fact that the mid-tier trim offers a number of convenience and comfort enhancing features available on the Z-trim while retailing at a significantly lower price point. The VXi and the VDi models of the new-gen MPV are on sale for INR 8.16 lakh and INR 9.56 lakh, respectively. In comparison, the Z-level variants cost INR 8.99 lakh and INR 10.39 lakh for the petrol and diesel models.

The exterior highlights of the V variant of the 2018 Maruti Ertiga include halogen projector headlamps, chrome garnish on the front grille, 15-inch steel rims with wheel covers, body-coloured door-handles, turn indicators on ORVMs, and L-shaped LED taillamps. Other highlights of the equipment list include:

Electric-folding ORVMs
Multi-function steering wheel
Manual AC controls
