| Suzuki Philippines officially launches the new and improved Ertiga combining strength and elegance in a compact body |
Starting 2019 strong as promised,
pioneer compact car distributor Suzuki Philippines (SPH) launches the new and
improved version of its well-loved MPV, the all-new Suzuki Ertiga.
The new version of SPH’s
best-selling vehicle features a tougher yet more elegant and compact look. It
too is packed with the Japanese automaker’s latest technological innovations for a totally enhanced driving experience.
“With the increasingly
diversified demands of the local auto industry and needs of end-users, we cannot
be complacent when we’ve done well and stop innovating. We want to make sure
that our customers get more than they deserve, which is why we decided to
further improve the best-selling Ertiga. With its new features and enhanced
functions, the upgraded MPV will definitely enable more Filipinos to live the
Suzuki Way of Life and drive SPH forward,” said SPH Director and Automobile
Division General Manager Keiichi Suzuki.

Strong and elegant styling
Sporting a fiercer look and boasting
maximum functionality, the all-new Ertiga combines strength and elegance in a
compact body, allowing Filipino families to go on adventures and seize the day
in style.
The upgraded 7-seater MPV features a
taller nose and a wide and elegant front grille. The lower roof side extends
the head room while providing a more stylish side view. The integrated lower
grille and fog lamps add a sense of stability and make the car look edgy. Deeper
curves on the side and shoulder and character lines were added to reflect
robustness and a stronger presence.
The
interior of the all-new Ertiga is designed with sophistication and flexibility
in mind. The new steering wheel has a flat bottom for better leg clearance
while the gauges are painted with metallic chrome for a sleeker look. The seats
have a deep curb with the fabric showing a 3D effect.

Superior riding comfort
The all-new Ertiga offers new comfort
features to help make traversing Metro Manila traffic more bearable and pass
the time away more pleasantly. The improved MPV has larger passenger legroom
with the increased tandem distance of the 3rd row seats. For added
relaxation, the third row has more headspace while the seats are designed with
a reclining and tilt-down mechanism up to 16 degrees.
For
better ventilation and convenience, a rear AC was installed to keep the 2nd
and 3rd row passenger comfortable. Small storage spaces are also
added all around, including a coin holder, ventilated cup holder, improved
center console and door pockets, to accommodate more hand-carry items.
Top-tier performance and safety
The all-new Ertiga comes
in a light yet highly rigid body, thanks to Suzuki’s new generation platform,
the HEARTECT. The new frame effectively disperses impact energy to
improve safety while reducing noise and vibration.
Another
notable feature is the Total Effective Control Technology (TECT), which scatters
collision energy across the vehicle frame to mitigate damage to the car and
passengers.
“All the upgrades on the new Ertiga are designed to
give Filipino riders the confidence to enjoy every adventure knowing they and
their family are safe and comfortable. Beyond making technological improvements
on our vehicles, our goal is to always ensure that our customers have an
optimum driving experience,” added Suzuki.
Pricing and Colors
The
all-new Ertiga is priced starting with GA at 728,000 PHP, GL MT 848,000 , GL AT
888,000 and GLX at 978,000. It comes in 7 colors: Pearl Glorious Brown,
