For many current consumers, buying a car does not only stop at the issue of design, functionality, and comfort, but also must meet the suitability in terms of cost, such as initial costs, fuel costs, maintenance costs,...

Launched in the Vietnamese market from 2022, after India, the Philippines and Indonesia, this 7-seater Suzuki model is gradually proving its ability to comprehensively meet the practical needs of customers thanks to its ability to save fuel as well as save costs.

Superior

Fuel EfficiencyThe Hybrid Ertiga is equipped with Smart Hybrid Vehicle by Suzuki (SHVS) technology using energy from a gasoline engine, combined with an Integrated Starter Generator (ISG) and a Lithium-Ion battery that provides significant performance in improving fuel consumption (5.05l/100km) and reducing CO2 emissions. In particular, The model is equipped with a self-charging mechanism. When the driver applies the brakes or releases the accelerator, the ISG will actively convert the vehicle's kinetic energy into electricity and charge it into the battery or battery for storage and vice versa, use the stored energy from the battery to transmit it to the motor and assist the combustion engine during the vehicle's start or acceleration. With the Idle Stop feature, the car temporarily stops using the gasoline engine when parked, switching to using energy from the generator and battery to operate, thereby helping to limit the need for fuel consumption. In addition, the equipment and features on the car such as the lighting system, entertainment screen system or air conditioning... will not use the energy generated directly from the motor. Instead, these devices will draw power from lithium-ion batteries. This helps to improve fuel efficiency and vehicle operating efficiency. According to the registry, the fuel consumption data of the Hybrid Ertiga model is currently saving about 33% compared to cars with normal internal combustion engines in the same segment.

Optimize the cost of use

The price of the Suzuki Hybrid Ertiga is considered reasonable. From only 500 million VND, customers can own a spacious, sophisticated, and comfortable family MPV model. For many customers, the decision to buy the Suzuki Hybrid Ertiga helps them save hundreds of millions of VND compared to choosing to buy another model in the same segment. This difference can be used for other "car maintenance" expenses.

In addition, thanks to fuel efficiency, the cost of using the car is also significantly reduced. With the current price of gasoline about 24,000/l, the fuel cost for 100km of road is only about 120,000 VND, which is 1200 VND/l, an incredible number compared to a 7-seater car.

The cost of maintenance and battery replacement is also not too expensive. According to the specifications of the Suzuki Hybrid Ertiga, because the internal combustion engine structure of this model is similar to other normal gasoline cars, the maintenance of the car is not complicated or inflated. The cost of oil change and oil change is relatively cheap. Covered by a 5-year warranty, Lithium-Ion batteries have an estimated lifespan of up to 10 years if properly maintained. If the battery has to be replaced, the battery price will be about 30 million VND.

In conclusion, a 7-seater car that is both friendly and economical "enough road" like the Suzuki Hybrid Ertiga is the perfect choice for middle-income families, because they can comfortably "raise" the car without having to bear too much burden on cost.
