The Ertiga BS6 is powered by the same 1.5-litre petrol engine coupled to mild-hybrid tech as before. It produces 105PS of power and 138Nm of torque, and can be had with a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 4-speed torque converter automatic transmission.

The carmaker has already announced that it would be discontinuing its diesel models once BS6 norms come into place in April 2020. This could be the reason the Eritga diesel hasn’t received the BS6 update yet. But rest assured, the diesel model will continue to be on sale until the new norms kick in.
