Maruti Suzuki Celerio [2014-2017] User Reviews

Exterior

 Very Good. I liked the exterior and that was the one reason I brought this car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Good space, comfortable. Seats are not looking good

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 I am concerned with fuel efficiency. Last week I put petrol for Rs. 500 (7 litres) and run only 50km !! the beep sound is started to come now !! Now I hope that after 2-3 service fuel efficiency will improve. I doubt is there any problem in my driving or with the engine.

Ride Quality & Handling

Very good. However, not good for sudden pick up while runing in automatic mode.

 

Final Words

 A good car for easy driving............ but fuel efficiency is very less, eventhough company says 24pl i think below 10pl is the real ..  The VXI model priced at 5.46 lacs for such a small car/less powerfull.

Areas of improvement  

 Fuel efficiency, otherwise a nice car. Also I think the fibre exterior will create problem in long run.

 

Nice design, driving comfortslow shifting of gear, very bad mileage 7-10 pl

Exterior IS GOOD ,

headligths are very power full and getting good visility.

side corner post both obstruct the visibilty

The exterori fittment lights are not strong.

 Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox.

pickup is not good, while braking in 5th gear we need to down gear to 3rd for pickup

fuel economy is good above 18++in highways with AC.and 15++ in city with AC.

any expert can get 23++ in 4 line highways maintain the speed of 70 to 80 KM

 

Ride Quality & Handling

easy handling

 

Final Words

 good vehicle for a small family 4 persons

Areas of improvement  

 While driving in rainy time fully mist in and out side of windshield glass, we cant remove it fast. it will cause  accidents.

need more pickup in 4th and 5th gears .it will get more mileage.

Fuel empty signal coming time not showing the distance to drive.

wiring inside engine room is not good insulation.

stereio not good minor complaint are there.

Gear shifting is hard and some times struck while shifting to 3rd gear

trip meter A and B , both are running every time.

INTERIOR , SPACE BETWEEN SEAT,BOOT SPACE,CLUSTER UNIT,DASH BOARD,SEATING POSITIONS,SEAT BELTPOOR PICKUP IN 4TH AND 5TH GEAR WHILE AC APPLICATION, RAINY TIME NOT SUITABLE FOR RUN VEHICLE

Exterior Exterior is satisfactory. I like the indicators on the rear view mirrors and the body color handles. Note that only one remote operation enabled key is provided, the duplicate is a manual one. Moreover to open all doors one has to press the unlock button twice, pressing it once will open only the driver door.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very comfortable interiors. Stock music system is satisfactory.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Great pickup, very smooth automated clutch control. Satisfactory economy (13 kmpl at around 500 kms), I am sure it should increase after the first service.

Ride Quality & Handling Driving in heavy traffic is a piece of cake, all thanks to the AMT transmission. Though the torque is a bit too much in the lower gears, it could be tricky for mediocre drivers to take this car up a very steep slope, my advice is to use the parking brake extensively with the gear lever in the manual mode.

Handling is great when it comes to steering and braking. While overtaking one has to use the manual mode as is the case with every AMT.

Final Words Satisfied with this purchase. Would recommend it to people considering to buy auto transmission vehicles.

Areas of improvement NA.

Driving experience is very smooth. Auto transmission is great for heavy traffic conditions.Exterior styling could be better, the torque is a bit too much for lower gears.

Exterior

great exterior looks In the front. Back can be better. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Spacious and comfortable for rides within city. I touched 90 km/hr in Bangalore outer ring road and the auto transmission was just fine. Love the purchase

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Auto transmission rocks. Fuel economy is only concern right now before first service. Getting about 12pl

Ride Quality & Handling

 Good ride quality and excellent for city traffic. Easy to park. My wife started driving the car within a few days of learning driving on a manual transmission without any help whatsoever. 

Final Words

Good buy as a primary or second car. Great for city traffic. Manoeuvrability is great. Easily accommodates 5 passengers. Third passenger in the back may feel jammed during long trips. Good visibility for driver 

Areas of improvement  

 Mileage seems to be low. I was able to get only about 12 pl. before first service. Overall very happy with purchase. Bootspace is less. 

Spacious interior, auto gearMileage, boot space

Exterior : I love its front chrome grills and unique design that is very much stylish and unique than the others.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Interior is good, my hight is 6 ft but i never faced any problem of space while driving, good leg room for both rear and back seats, very good boot space.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox :

Engine performance is pretty good, you wouldn't find sound of engine while driving, but yes little bit you may recognise wheel movement sound.

Fule Economy: Fule Economy is the best in class, i am getting 18 to 20 Kmpl within the city in normal trafic, 15 to 16 in very much bumper to bumber trafic start and stop. and 22 to 25 on highway.
 

Ride Quality & Handling : very smooth and flexible, really its an easy drive.

 

Final Words : Value for money, best in hatchback.

 

Areas of improvement: Need to decrease the sound of wheels movement that i don't like, need to provide air bag safety with this version,

 

 

Very smooth & comfortable drive, good fuel economy 18 to 20 in city in normal traficlack of airbag in this version, Suzuki should provide it, at end of the result will be incresed sale

Exterior : it looks similar to other Hatch back cars, but the purpose of a car for a budget oriented family is not this. but however its not odd. its good enough

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) : Seating comfort is good, but the quality of plastic used in dashboard etc.., looks a bit cheap.

good boot space more than swift

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox : engine performance is good K10 engine, fuel economy is superb, earlier i use to get 18.8 Kmpl with A.C but now with suggestions of Petroleum conservation its giving 22.2 kmpl on the same road and on high way it crossed the claimed value of 23.1 kmpl it has given an avg of 24.7 kmpl with A.C + 2 persons and some luggage. i have got pics of mileages as well.

 

Ride Quality & Handling : easy and good

 

Final Words : worth going to celerio instead of going to higher end cars. Its my first car and felt really happy for having it. it gave the value to hard earn money which i used to buy this car

 

Areas of improvement : Gear box transmissions, interiors. some time (Rarely) gears swift is not soo smooth

 

 

Good Mileage, Boot Space, foot spaceInterior plastic quality

Exterior :  It has a nice body material and looks great from all the sides except from the back side. Back side is Average but not bad.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) : Quality of the interior is very nice. space is good, three persons can sit on back seats very comfortably.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox : Engine is not noisy even at high speeds like 110 -120 kmph. Average is around 18 kmpl in the city with Medium AC.  

 

Ride Quality & Handling : Ride Quality is Amazing, easily drove it around 800 kms in a day. And Handling is very nice. 

 

Final Words :  Overall in this class, having a Celerio is Great. One should buy Celerio if looking for good looks, Quality material and Less Expensive Hatchback. 

 

Areas of improvement : Try to bring good colors in Celerio if possible. Colors are not good. If LXi had inbuilt front power windows, or Centra locking that would be great.

 

Looks, Engine power, Great car for long distance travelling.Antenna only. Its too long, and is placed on the front side of the roof.

Exterior

 Proportions are good. Few Sharp Curves loose the appeal. Rear is bit ugly than front.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 driving position is good. Space is good. If you have already owned a maruti, wont find much difference but still appealing. Bluetooth telephony is good but you cant dial a number directly using steering controls. you have to use dials on dashboard which is bit tricky while driving

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine lack low end performance. Even WagonR was good as low end. Even in Reverse pull is bit weak. Ca't pull at IDLE easily. For fuel effciency, Shift between 2500-300 rpm ride at 50-60 you can easily get 22kmpl in city with AC. I am getting 18+KMPL with my driving style

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride quality is not much different than Alto or WagonR. Although NVH is imporved. Engine sound pases thorough only after 5000RPM. handling is good due to its wider stance.

Final Words

 Value for Money. For economy oriented people. Definately not for performance lovers.

Areas of improvement  

 Engine low end delivery. Reverse gear ratio should be little higher.

 

Space, Interiar AppealLow End Engine Delivery, A-Pillar is Very Thick.
