The Ertiga and Baleno join all the other cars in Maruti Suzuki’s stable to now come with six airbags as standard. The automaker previously updated the Alto K10, Celerio, Eeco, and WagonR with six airbags, while its more premium range, comprising the Swift, Dzire, Brezza, Grand Vitara, Jimny, and Invicto, all get the safety feature.

The standardisation of six airbags on passenger cars is in line with the mandate from the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) since October 2025. Most OEMs have updated their respective products with the additional safety equipment to comply with the norms.

In addition to six airbags, both the Maruti products also come equipped with Anti-Lock Braking (ABS), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), and ISOFIX anchor mounts as standard.
