Innova Crysta vs Ertiga for Kerala Taxi Trips: Which to Choose

Both the Innova Crysta and Maruti Ertiga are common picks for Kerala taxi trips, but they suit slightly different needs.

The Innova Crysta seats six to seven comfortably and handles hill roads well, with a smoother ride and more boot space - it's the default choice for most families doing a Munnar or Wayanad trip.

The Ertiga is a lighter, more compact seven-seater. It works well for flatter routes and shorter city trips, and tends to be a bit more budget-friendly than the Crysta.

For longer trips with more luggage - say a 5-6 day Kerala tour with hill stations - the Crysta's extra boot space and stability on curves usually make it worth the difference.

For a same-day airport pickup and city drop, or a shorter backwater trip, the Ertiga does the job just as well at a lower cost.

• Practical tip - If your group is exactly 6-7 people with moderate luggage, ask to see both vehicles' boot space before deciding - it varies more than the seating capacity suggests.
