Is the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga available both in petrol and diesel engine varieties?

The Ertiga by Maruti Suzuki is the only car in this segment that is available in not only petrol and diesel but also with S-CNG Technology. Along with CNG this car also uses the Smart Hybrid Technology for its petrol engine.
The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga has three engine options, namely

1. DDiS 225 engine
2. K15 Smart Hybrid Petrol engine
3. S-CNG powered engine

Oh! I wasn't aware of this. Which of the variants have this CNG engine? Is the option for petrol and diesel available for all the variants? How many variants in all are available for the Maruti Suzuki Ertiga?

This is not a very well known fact, so it is okay that you did not know. However, it is the only car in this segment with factory fitted S-CNG technology. The Maruti Suzuki Ertiga 2020 is available with these three engine options.
Totally, this car is available in 10 variants. I will list them out for you along with the available engine options for each.

1. LXI-K15B SMART HYBRID
2. VXI-K15B SMART HYBRID
3. VXI AT-K15B SMART HYBRID
4. VXI CNG- K15B
5. VDI (1.5L)- DDiS 225
6. ZXI-K15B SMART HYBRID
7. ZXI AT-K15B SMART HYBRID
8. ZXI+-K15B SMART HYBRID
9. ZDI (1.5L)-DDiS 225
10. ZDI+ - K15B SMART HYBRID

As you can see, only one of these variants is available with the S-CNG technology. The car still uses the K15B petrol engine but utilizes CNG technology.

I wasn't aware of this either. Well, I am not very familiar with the concept of CNG technology in cars. It would be great if you could tell me how it affects performance over Petrol and diesel variants as well as the emission levels.

Thanks.
