Celerio Automatic Rocks. Perfect Companion for city driving. Hassle Free

Exterior

 Like All Maruti Cars, Celerio also has decent looks. They always have simple and subtle designs. From the front one can mistake this to be a Etios. From the side the car has a smooth flowing designs. The back is also quite simple.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 The interiors surprisingly is very spacious. Unlike all other Maruti`s which are cramped.

The celerio has been blessed with good leg space, has a Tall boy design and also a decent shoulder room.

The seats though are not very comfortable for long drives. They are stiff and one can feel the bumps and bad roads. For my comfort I had to get the seats added with extra padded cushion after which the seats give a feeling of luxury car. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Engine is peppy and responsive.

For city driving in bumper to bumper traffic the automatic gear box is a blessing. After driving manual cars for so many years, I wonder why I never got myself an automatic all these years. Fuel economy comes to a decent 15 kmpl.

While overtaking there is a lag and one can feel the jerks during gear changes.

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride Quality is smooth. The guys at maruti have done a good job of insulating the cabin so that there are no vibrations or noise felt inside. The power steering is also very light and easy to manouvere. The front glass is aerodynamically placed which gives a rich look. Seating positions for passengers as well the driver is very well designed.  

Final Words

 Buy an Automatic car now that its affordable. It gives you the independence and freedom to drive in Bumper to Bumper Traffic and relax. There is no need even to take driving classes. You save on the cost of appointing a driver. No more stress and road rage as you can sing, eat, conversate with your Co-Passengers

Areas of improvement  

The Outer Looks could be improved to make it more appealing and upmarket.

Celerio could be stretched further to 3.99mtrs which would give it a longer length base.
