2023 Suzuki Ertiga Hybrid Full Review -A better family car than the Avanza?

[@LanceLumbanPHI]

I have a normal Ertiga and test drove one of the Hybrid models. You only save 2 liters per kms better than the already economical ertiga. Over time it is a lot of money saved, but if already have an Ertiga, it is not worth upgrading to the Hybrid.

[@foreverzero1]

im not sure about saving tons of money over time because the cost of maintaining hybrid system is huge specially the lithium battery that could cost more than 100k PHP so IMO mild hybrid is not really practical.. i would still go for a regular ertiga or xl7... IMO its either go for normal combustion engine car or full hybrid.. not mild hybrid

[@EmmanuelJrSia]

@@foreverzero1 if the hybrid system fails, you can still drive the car and go on with your day. In other terms, it becomes a regular ertiga. Note: Suzuki Hybrid is only a mild-hybrid mpv.

[@julambre]

I really love SUZUKI ❤❤

[@Jiggabyte_Alpha]

3:24 The Ertiga and the XL7 have always used LED taillights, not halogen.

It would be beneficial to viewers if you put engine specs & fuel economy in your info caption for quick reference

[@rolandfunk7032]

The battery of some "mild hybrid" cars are only 12 Volt, but even the 48V mild electrified hybrids are almost useless to save significant fuel consumption. "electrified" just sounds good for marketing and the main advantage is avoiding number coding in Manila ... until everyone is doing it and the special excemption privilege is revoked.

[@not4mike]

On that note (since the current EVIDA LAW is only up to 2030 for all approved EV or Hybrid vehicles anyway), most Ertiga Hybrid owners would probably sell and upgrade to a newer version of the Ertiga HYBRID by that time, with hopefully a better version other than this mild hybrid version (if there's any). And/or they'll be ready to upgrade towards a better HYBRID or a FULL EV vehicle that's more fuel efficient in the future. But for those who are satisfied and are still ok with their 1st gen Ertiga Hyrbrid, only time will tell if they're going to keep it for a longer period instead. NOTE: Even with the minimal fuel savings from this mild hybrid version of the Ertiga, this is the most affordable hybrid vehicle that's exempted from Metro Manila's coding restrictions. Moreover, Suzuki's target market (families who only own 1 vehicle) might seriously consider this as enough justification (since it's both economical and financially viable for them to possibly just sell their existing non-EVIDA LAW exempted vehicle), then simply use the proceeds as a downpayment to upgrade to this (rather than purchase another vehicle to avoid the hassle of the coding restrictions - at least until 2030).

One of my fav things in this car is the amount of info in the screen between the RPM-gauge and speedometer 😅

[@noryem]

@jaywalkyr Planning to get mild hybrid. Do you have documents or publications na it is really final na excempted na sa coding si mild hybrid?

[@jcatini8299]

Nice vehicle, dapat meron front arm rest.

[@romeovlog983]

What color is it? Grey?

[@vingasoline1]

In other words its a scam just like the geely okavango. Its not really a hybrid period. They just wanted to attach the hybrid name to fool customers ang kick up sales

[@AndrewJohnYoung]

💯agree

[@amersheene692]

Not really a scam but definitely MISLEADING. Both Geely and Suzuki always fail to emphasize that their car is MILD HYBRID.

[@mindfreeze0838]

Mild hybrids arent scams, they do provide all the benefits of a full hybrid except full ev driving. Plus unlike full hybrids you arent giving up trunk space to fit the battery. I would get a mild hybrid as what I really want to to save fuel in traffic or long periods of idling which is what kills a good fuel economy.

[@vingasoline1]

@@mindfreeze0838 except that these mild hybrids mentioned doesn't have a start stop system. The engine doest not shut off while stopped at traffic lol

[@mindfreeze0838]

​@@vingasoline1 the system does have start stop and torque fill.

[@TopHugo88]

. .. ... "y'all also get G motion tracker.. but I think the market for Ertiga, probably don't know what that is" The unintentional shade.. like it🤣🤭 👍

[@areudatingaricecooker]

can you ranked the hilux variants pls

[@keithandes7475]

This car in the long run the owner will disable the hybrid system cuz of the of lithium battery is pricey to replace

[@scalemodeltutor9841]

Yup, and just another reason to worry about its maintenance in the future

[@iamshadowbanned699]

25k to replace the battery after 5 years is not pricey when you think about the long-term savings you get from it.

[@dexterdeguia9381]

Hey, ertiga is not turbo charge engine, watch out 😢😢😢

[@hdk07]

This is the opportunity sana to change the look.. napakaluma tignan. The design is very dated compared to its competitors.

[@benf3996]

The Ertiga has a turbo now? Must be a mistake 😅

[@jaywalkur]

Never said that it has a turbo :)

[@benf3996]

I checked again. You said it at 4:03. Sorry just nitpicking. Love your reviews, man.

[@jaywalkur]

@@benf3996 Oh you are correct. Sorry about the mix up. I didn't even notice. It doesn't have a turbo. It's Naturally aspirated :)
