The Ertiga is a 7-seater, but the Hycross is a 7-seater or 8-seater. Ertiga was launched in 2012 and has been in its second generation since 2022. It is built on the HEARTECT platform. The Hycross has an SUV-inspired style and is more spacious. It was launched in 2022 and is in its first generation. It is built on Toyota\u2019s monocoque platform. The Ertiga uses the 1.5L K15C smart hybrid engine and comes with manual and automatic transmissions. The Hycross uses a 2.0L petrol and 2.0L strong hybrid engine, paired with a CVT transmission.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maruti Ertiga real-world mileage ranges from 16.5 to 18 km\/l. The Toyota Innova Hycross real-world mileage is best at 15 km\/l for the strong hybrid. But the best MPV fuel efficiency between the Ertiga and Hycross is 24 km\/kg for the Ertiga CNG.

It has a larger-capacity engine, more power, and higher torque than any Ertiga engine option. The main similarity between these MPVs is that they both have a hybrid option. The petrol variant is available only with the Hycross, and CNG is available with the Ertiga. The Hycross hybrid is more powerful than the Ertiga\u2019s.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ertiga enjoys a 5-speed manual and 6-speed automatic transmission. The Hycross uses a direct-shift CVT and an e-CVT. Both MPVs have a front-wheel-drive layout, and the Ertiga also offers 2-wheel drive. The Hycross has a 52-litre fuel tank, while the Ertiga hybrid has 45 litres and 60 litres for CNG. The Hycross is also heavier than the Ertiga.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read:<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/maruti-suzuki-ertiga-price-specifications-images\/\"><strong> <\/strong>Maruti Suzuki Ertiga: Price, Specifications, Images<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maruti-ertiga-vs-toyota-innova-hycross-arai-mileage-figures\"><strong>Maruti Ertiga vs Toyota Innova Hycross: ARAI Mileage Figures<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) tests vehicles in controlled lab environments using a simulated cycle to determine maximum fuel efficiency.

Its smart hybrid can directly compete with the Ertiga hybrid and deliver mileage that is close to its ARAI claims.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you look at the Ertiga petrol mileage, you will see that the manual transmission delivers better mileage than the automatic variant. The Ertiga city mileage ranges from 16-18 km\/l for the manual and 14-16 km\/l for the automatic variant. On highways, it performs better and has a higher fuel efficiency of 17-20 km\/l, depending on the transmission. The Ertiga CNG mileage is excellent at 22-24 km\/kg in the city and 24-26 km\/kg on highways.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Innova Hycross hybrid mileage is sometimes lower than the Ertiga, but it returns around 15-20 km\/l in the city. The Hycross highway mileage ranges from 17-21 km\/l. The Hycross petrol mileage is the lowest among all the variants compared here. In the city, it delivers just 10-13 km\/l and around 12-16 km\/l on highways.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ertiga hybrid returns mileage close to its ARAI claims. The Ertiga CNG has lower mileage than ARAI claims. The Hycross hybrid has a lower mileage than the ARAI figures. The Hycross petrol can touch its ARAI mileage, but only on highways under stable conditions with steady and consistent driving.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/toyota-innova-hycross-real-world-mileage\/\">Toyota Innova Hycross Real World Mileage<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"maruti-ertiga-vs-toyota-innova-hycross-fuel-cost-comparison\"><strong>Maruti Ertiga vs Toyota Innova Hycross: Fuel Cost Comparison<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Maruti Ertiga real-world mileage and Toyota Innova Hycross real-world mileage make more sense when you convert them into fuel expenses.

It\u2019s cheaper than 70k a year, which is about 40k cheaper than the next best bet, the Hycross hybrid. The hybrids have similar monthly fuel costs, but the Hycross hybrid is extremely economical in terms of annual expenditure. The petrol version of the Hycross will be expensive for you, and the range will be around 1.50 lakhs annually, so in 5 years you will be spending more than 5 lakhs on fuel costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ertiga CNG is the best choice overall.

It also has a lower initial cost. The Hycross is larger and heavier, but its strong hybrid delivers a solid 18.25 km\/l on mixed use. The Ertiga hybrid is also a strong contender, with slightly lower mileage of 17.25 km\/l on mixed use. If you are focused on lower fuel costs, the Ertiga CNG mileage of 24 km\/kg will appeal to you. If you want a petrol option, the Hycross hybrid or the Ertiga hybrid is better. The Innova Hycross offers flexible seating capacity of up to 8, while the Ertiga can accommodate only 7.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Related Blogs:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/maruti-ertiga-vs-kia-carens-clavis-real-world-mileage-comparison\/\">Maruti Ertiga vs Kia Carens Clavis: Real World Mileage Comparison<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/maruti-ertiga-vs-maruti-xl6-real-world-mileage-comparison\/\">Maruti Ertiga vs Maruti XL6 Real World Mileage Comparison<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.spinny.com\/blog\/toyota-innova-hycross-vs-kia-carnival-real-world-mileage-comparison\/\">Toyota Innova Hycross vs Kia Carnival Real-World Mileage Comparison<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"fa-qs\"><strong>FAQs <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"saswp-faq-block-section\"><ol style=\"list-style-type:none\"><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\"><strong>Q. How is the mileage of the Ertiga in real-world conditions compared to the Innova Hycross?<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">The Maruti Ertiga real-world mileage averages 17.25 km\/l across its transmissions. The Toyota Innova Hycross real-world mileage delivers an average of 18 km\/l. The Hycross can perform better on city roads and highways. The Ertiga CNG delivers better mileage at 24 km\/kg.\u00a0<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\"><strong>Q. Does the Hycross hybrid perform better than the Ertiga in city traffic?<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Yes, the Hycross hybrid is better suited to city traffic. The hybrid is smooth and easy, helping to deliver power even at lower speeds. It\u2019s less tiring because it couples the noiseless EV with an automatic transmission. In addition, frequent braking regenerates energy to charge the battery, reducing fuel consumption. This helps maintain higher fuel efficiency. Though the lightweight Ertiga offers good mileage, it doesn&#8217;t deliver the seamless low punch the hybrid system does.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\"><strong>Q. How does the Hycross hybrid system behave during stop-and-go traffic?<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">The Innova Hycross gets electric power to deliver instant torque to cut through heavy traffic. It uses less petrol and more electric power at lower speeds. Its response is so fast, it\u2019s almost immediate, so you can easily take it through bumper-to-bumper traffic. The strong hybrid is a good option in city traffic, with the petrol engine shutting down at low speeds.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\"><strong>Q. Which engine of Ertiga will be more fuel efficient for everyday use?<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">For the best fuel economy, go for the Ertiga CNG manual. It can deliver 24 km\/kg on average in mixed use. If you drive mostly in the city, you can get 22-24 km\/kg. On highways, it delivers 24-26 km\/kg. It will cost you around 5.5k per month and around 66k per year.<\/p><li style=\"list-style-type: none\"><h3 class=\"\"><strong>Q. Does the Ertiga automatic use significantly more fuel in city conditions?<\/strong><\/h3><p class=\"saswp-faq-answer-text\">Ertiga automatic transmission is available only in its hybrid variant. In the city, it can return under 16 km\/l and on highways, 17-19 km\/l. Constant acceleration and idling consume more fuel and reduce its fuel efficiency. The automatic variant of Ertiga is suitable only if you want relief from the constant gear shifts in heavy city traffic.\u00a0<\/p><\/ul><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Maruti Ertiga and Toyota Innova Hycross are two of the higher-seating-capacity MPVs.
