Maruti has commenced the official bookings for the new-gen Celerio hatchback. You can either book it online or through dealerships for a token amount of Rs 11,000. It has already reached dealerships ahead of its expected launch on November 10.

Further, Maruti has also confirmed that it will be getting the Swift and Baleno’s 90PS/113Nm 1.2-litre DualJet Dual VVT petrol engine with the segment-first idle start-stop technology. Maruti is further claiming that the Celerio will be the most fuel-efficient petrol car.

We are also expecting the Celerio to be offered with the Wagon R’s 68PS 1-litre petrol engine. Transmission options for both the powertrains should include both a 5-speed manual and an AMT. The smaller engine could further be offered with an optional CNG as well.

The new Celerio will feature a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, the WagonR’s semi-digital instrument cluster, push-button engine start-stop, passive keyless entry, steering wheel-mounted audio controls, electric ORVMs with turn indicators and droplet-shaped headlights.

The new-gen Celerio is expected to demand a premium over the outgoing model, which ranges from Rs 4.65 lakh to Rs 6 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). It will continue to rival the Hyundai Santro, Tata Tiago, Datsun GO, and the Maruti Wagon R.
