That was a short and precise review Noida-Ertigan and being an ZDI owner for 4 months now I agree with each of your statement.
To anyone doubting about Ertiga's pulling power, let me give an example of mine. Recently I took on the ring road here in Hyderabad which is a 8 lane road with plantation divider between and which is yet to come into full commissioning, so almost no traffic on road. Hence it is a good test track for vehicles. With total 5 on board I thought of testing my vehicle on full throttle on a straight stretch. With swift change of gears and acceleration I could easily cruise at an incredible speed of 150 km/h with no sign of engine feeling out of breath and vehicle was stable with good road grip. The RPM was somewhere around 3500 at this speed. I kept at this speed for a minute or so and rest of the stretch was at steady pace of 120 km/h.
Basically I am not a acceleration happy driver and usually would prefer to cruise at speeds of 80 to 100 km/h on open roads. My Ertiga is perfectly complimenting me on this kind of driving style with little purring its engine.

Disclaimer: Please do not attempt this kind of speed on normal roads.
Hi Hari,

I recently got my ZDI and would like to know how is the noise inside cabin. I was earlier having i10 and feel the noise is on higher side cmparing with petrol enfines.

I Had booked the ertiga zdi serene blue on saturday 27th july and got a call today that its ready for delivery. On saturday the dealer said they don't have the colour in stock it might take a week for the delivery. Could there be something wrong.

Chevy Enjoy has roof-rails as an optional accessory. Check them in Vishwas's ownership thread. Those are of sticking type & not to be drilled. Can those be bought & installed on Ertiga? I doubt about the curve of the roof of Ertiga compared to Enjoy. Otherwise they would look good.
BTW, can you buy an accessory of some other brand from it's dealer just like that? [confused]

Knight, its Rouf rails, not simply stick on rails.
Not only for show off but also has load carrying capacity.

Overall, a better option than the normal taxi looking carriers.
Only issue, almost twice the amount for a taxi looking carrier.

Today I fixed chrome handles for my LUV. I like to put some more chrome touch on her guys your thoughts
nice looking, Kinky.
I have Chrome Doors and Tail light chrome inserts for a while now, not able to find time to install them. :(

I do not need it to carry luggage. Hence looking for the stick ones to add some sporty looks. The Enjoy ones look good. Not sure if those can be stuck on Ertiga's roof.

I got my zdi 1 week ago and completed 600 plus kms

few observations
1. there is hissing sound like some air noise coming from the right side ac and quarter glass area. the sound increases when driven above 70 km hr speed.
2. seat height adjust is like front and back movement of seat but not up and down

did any one observe sound in your ertiga and what is the resolution for it
gave the car for inspection to check the sound

Not yet, weekends are really tied up, I guess some lubrication will do. I feel sound only when I release the brake like krrrr.
hi friend did you get any solution to this sound

If you are driving in metro cities I would say yes for cabin filter. I see lot of dust in my filter within a week after cleaning
