If that isn’t enough for your liking, the additional accessories include designer body graphics, side molding, rear parking sensors and a set of door visors. Inside the cabin, you get a set of two-tone seat covers, matching steering cover, a cylindrical tissue box and ambient lighting in the footwells. The 'limited edition' kit will cost you Rs 11,990.

The Celerio might be just another hatchback from the Maruti portfolio for many. However, for the Indo-Japanese auto giant, the hatch has been a potent tool to test uncharted territories. The Celerio was hand picked to feature two crucial firsts for Maruti. The Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) and Maruti’s first indigenously developed diesel motor, the DDiS 125; both first featured on the Celerio before making its way to other hatchbacks. What does the Celerio bring to the table? Let’s find out.
Things We Like in Celerio
Healthy in-cabin space despite the compact proportions.
Peppy petrol and frugal diesel engines.
Safety features such as ABS (Anti Lock Braking System) and Airbags available as an option across the range.
Optional AMT across variants. Easy to drive in the congested city.
Things We Don't Like in Celerio
Jerky shifts on the AMT. Not as smooth as a conventional automatic.
Both engine options best suited to the city; feels underpowered on the highway.
Build quality could have been better; doors shut with a clang - feel slightly flimsy.
Refinement and NVH levels. Tthe 2-cylinder diesel motor sounds coarse and a lot of noise filters inside the cabin.
Stand Out Features
Maruti’s widespread after sales network, there’s simply no beating them at assuring peace of mind.
AMT gearbox makes it super convenient to use inside the city.
CarDekho Verdict
The Celerio is a neutral car, that won’t offend you nor please. It will go about its work in a manner that will ensure peace of mind. Couple that with Maruti’s fantastic service support network, and you have a near perfect ownership experience.
"The Celerio is a neutral car, that won’t offend you nor please."
Yes, it does have few issues like the inconsistent quality, lethargic diesel engine and doesn’t have all the features that some of its competition boast of. But, as a city commuter, the Celerio - especially in its petrol powered avatar will not disappoint.
