Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Celerio
- Spacious and comfortable cabin: Can seat four adults in good comfort.
- Performance is peppy for the city and returns a good fuel efficiency too.
- Good features: Ticks all the functional equipment, along with some extra comfort features.
- Easy to drive: Light clutch, light steering and good low-end performance makes it new-driver friendly.
Maruti Suzuki Dzire
- Looks distinctive: New design elements give it an identity different from the Swift.
- Excellent boot space. Can store an entire suitcase set along with two soft bags.
- Comfortable ride quality: Cushioned over regular imperfections, and limits movement on sharper potholes too.
- Ground clearance: 163mm is more than enough to drive easily over rough roads.
- Safety package: 5-star Global NCAP crash test rating and 6 airbags as standard.
- High mileage: Returns around 15-16 kmpl in the city in regular driving conditions.
- Offers feel-good features like sunroof, 360 degree camera and 9-inch touchscreen.

Maruti Suzuki Celerio
- Not so stable: Ride quality at higher speeds feels firm and causes some side-to-side cabin movement.
- Limited cabin practicality: Could be better with more storage space in front of and behind the handbrake.
- Base LXi and VXi variants are not value for money: Pack only the absolute basics.
Maruti Suzuki Dzire
- Low engine refinement and performance: Feels dull with a full load and overtakes require planning.
- AMT transmission: Slow and jerky on the highway, and upshifts quite early leaving less usable power.
- Limited headroom: Sloping roofline limits headroom for 6-footers.
