Maruti Suzuki CelerioX Launched At Rs 4.57 Lakh

Maruti Suzuki rather non-descript hatchback, the Celerio has a new cousin. Called the CelerioX, the jacked up version is available in a total of eight variants. Prices start at Rs 4.57 lakh for the VXi variant, and go all the way up to Rs 5.43 lakh for the top-spec ZXi (O) variant with an AMT. Here바카라�s the full price list -

CelerioX VXi - Rs 4.57 lakh (MT) / Rs 5.00 lakh (AMT)

CelerioX VXi (O) - Rs 4.72 lakh (MT) / Rs 5.15 lakh (AMT)

CelerioX ZXi - Rs 4.82 lakh (MT) / Rs 5.25 lakh (AMT)

CelerioX ZXi (O) - Rs 5.31 lakh (MT) / Rs 5.43 lakh (AMT)

A few quick jabs at our calculator tells us it바카라�s dearer by approximately Rs 8000 compared to the equivalent variant of the Celerio.

What바카라�s Different?

Like most hatch-to-cross conversions, the CelerioX gets a bucketload of cladding on the side and the rear. The rear bumper gets a faux skid plate finished in silver. And, while it might seem like the X has a different bumper, it바카라�s just painted differently. The gloss black highlights on the grille and under the headlamps give it some distinction. And, what바카라�s a cross version without roof rails, right? Subtler elements include garnish around the foglamps, and a blacked-out B-pillar. Before we forget, the CelerioX gets this really tangy orange paint shade, which Maruti says 바카라�is reminiscent of the youthful energy and symbolizes sportiness바카라�. SUUURE! Other colour options include white, grey, brown and blue.

The interiors are an all-black affair, with white accents providing some contrast. The black seats get orange highlights which should go well with the exterior paint shade.

What바카라�s Not?

There바카라�s no addition to the feature list of the X compared to the Celerio. This means you continue to get a 2DIN audio system with steering-mounted controls, all four power windows, height-adjustable driver seat and manual air-conditioning on the top-spec ZXi (O) variant. The CelerioX gets a driver airbag as standard, whereas the passenger airbag and ABS is an optional extra across the range. This should바카라�ve been part of the standard kit in today바카라�s day and age, we think. The CelerioX is powered by the same 1.0-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine that powers the Celerio and in the same state of tune producing 68PS of max power and 90Nm of peak torque. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed automated manual transmission (AMT). It looks like the DDiS125 diesel engine has been shelved for good.

Should you consider one? 

If you like the way it looks, sure! As a package, it doesn바카라�t offer anything substantially different compared to the Celerio; not even a higher ground clearance.
