1. Buying Experience - Pretty straight forward no nonsense buying experience. Went to the dealership and enquired about exchange policy, car loan etc and finalized the Celerio AMT rather quickly and got it delivered. Experience on the D-Day was a bit let down having made to wait cause of some delay over loan processing and accessories installation
2. Riding Experience - Peppy little 1 litre K10 Engine. Gearbox and Engine combo is great. Power delivery is crispy as well. Refinement and NVH is not its strength being a 3 cylinder but Peppiness and Drivability is fairly great.
Suspension is a bit on the stiffer size to body roll is fairly less for the cars height but bumpy over rough roads.
Seating position is spot on for me.
3. Exterior and Interior Looks - I like the rather understated looks of the Celerio and the tall boyish appearance. I love understated design language.
Interior wise, I so wished Maruti offered a factory fitted Head Unit and atleast rear defogger. Plastic quality and fit and finish is nothing to talk about
4. Servicing and Maintenance - Regular servicing is being done and maintenance is fairly affordable.
5. Pros -
- Comfort of AMT
- Peppy K10 Engine
- Fuel effiency
- Brand backing and Maruti's after sales service
6. Cons -
- Lack of Factory fitted Head Unit at this price point is very unexpected
- Light built quality and plastic quality
- Poor NVH
