Maruti Suzuki is India’s largest carmaker. They have a variety of models spread across various segment. One of their offerings in the MPV segment is Ertiga. It has been a popular choice in both personal and commercial vehicle segment. The new generation Ertiga got launched in the market few years ago and since then we have seen several videos and images of modified Ertiga MPVs from India and around the world. Here we have a video that shows an extensively modified current generation Ertiga that looks neat and comes with an aftermarket electric tailgate.

The video has been uploaded by VIG AUTO ACCESSORIES on their YouTube channel. Several modifications have been made to this Ertiga and in this video vlogger talks about all of them. He starts with the front, where this Ertiga gets the same headlamps as stock but, they now come with crystal LED DRLs integrated in them. The colour of the DRL can be controlled using a mobile application. The headlights are now HID and LED. Coming down, the bumper gets boomerang shaped LED DRLs next to the fog lamps. Lower part of the bumper also gets a gloss black lower lip which gives it an aggressive look.

Coming to the side profile, the car remains stock. The only modification that we see here are the roof mounted carriers and door visors. Coming to the rear, the Ertiga gets an aftermarket diffuser with fake quad exhaust tips. Other than this, it also comes with reflector lamps and an LED light bar that run between the tail lamps. The main attraction on this Ertiga is the electric tailgate opener. It can be opened and closed using the key fob, physical button on the boot and also inside the cabin. this is a feature that is normally available with premium or luxury cars. The work done on this car looks extremely good.
