<p><br/></p><p>Auto major Maruti Suzuki India on Tuesday said its next-gen Ertiga multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), has crossed 5.5 lakh cumulative sales milestone since its launch in November 2018. Powered by a 1.5L K-series petrol engine, the next gen Ertiga is equipped with&nbsp;Smart Hybrid&nbsp;and automatic transmission technology. It also has a factory-fitted S-CNG option.<br/><br/>&quot;The remarkable milestone of 5.5 lakh sales is a testimony of its success,&quot; Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) Executive Director (Marketing &amp; Sales) Shashank Srivastava said in a statement.<br/><br/>MSI had introduced the Ertiga model for the first time in India in April 2012 and became the highest selling MPV with 20 per cent repeat customers.</p><p><br/></p><p>&quot;While making a purchase decision, customers often cross-consider MPVs with UVs. Despite being cross-considered with top selling UVs in the country, Ertiga has dominated the market and increased its market share in the segment,&quot; Srivastava added.</p>
