Suzuki Celerio
The Suzuki Celerio was introduced in late 2014 as a replacement to the Suzuki Alto. The Suzuki Celerio is a city car produced by the Japanese automaker Suzuki. Designed as an affordable and compact vehicle, the Celerio primarily targets emerging markets, though it’s available in various global markets, including parts of Europe.
Suzuki Celerio Overview
The Celerio was introduced in 2014 as a replacement for the Suzuki Alto and A-Star (or Suzuki Celerio in some markets). It aimed to provide better interior space and modern features while retaining the compact dimensions suitable for city driving. While the Celerio maintains a compact footprint, its design maximizes interior space. As a result, it offers more legroom and cargo space compared to some of its predecessors and competitors in the segment. Its interior, though basic, is functional and geared towards usability. The higher trims do offer infotainment options like a touchscreen system.
The current-generation Celerio was introduced in 2021 and is available in India, Europe, and Southeast Asia. The Celerio is powered by a 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine that produces 68 horsepower and 67 lb-ft of torque. It is available with a choice of manual or automatic transmissions. The Celerio is available in two trim levels: SZ and GL. The SZ trim comes standard with features like a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Bluetooth, and a rearview camera. The GL trim adds features like an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a JBL sound system, and automatic climate control.
The Celerio is a good choice for those looking for a fuel-efficient and affordable hatchback. It is also a good choice for those who need a car with a relatively spacious interior.
