The Auto Grid Review
Maruti Suzuki Celerio Review: Our Verdict
The Celerio is a quiet seller in Hyderabad and the ones that reach our Kondapur bay are mostly ZXi+ AGS cars in Caffeine Brown or Speedy Blue bought as a second city car. The rounded body hides panel gaps well, but the clear coat is thin: the bonnet nose and the lower front bumper show pepper chips after a monsoon of Hitec City commuting, and the rear bumper corners take the worst of tight apartment parking. Dealer-applied polish often leaves fine swirls on the darker metallics that only show under our lamps. It is an easy car to protect: the bonnet is one soft curve, the bumper has few creases, and the headlamps are small, so a full-front package goes down cleanly in a morning.
What we like
- +26 km/l AGS automatic and a 34.4 km/kg CNG
- +Six airbags and ESP listed across the range
- +Compact outside, roomier inside than the Alto K10
- +Rounded panels film cleanly
What we’d change
- –Thin clear coat chips and swirls easily
- –Touchscreen only on the top ZXi+ trims
- –No boot figure published by Maruti
Is the Celerio right for you? Seven driver personalities, scored
Find the row that sounds like your driving life — that is the verdict that matters for you.
City Commuter
10–30 km a day through traffic
The AGS, a small footprint and 26 km/l claimed economy make it the most sensible Maruti for a 20 km Madhapur round trip; visibility is excellent.
Highway Cruiser
ORR laps and expressway weekends
It will sit at 100 km/h on the ORR but the 998 cc engine is loud there and there is no cruise control; short hops only.
Family First
Four or five aboard, school runs to road trips
Six airbags, ISOFIX-free but 3-point belts for all rear seats, and a usable rear bench for two adults and a child.
Driving Enthusiast
Cares how it steers, not just how it looks
Light, soft and economy-tuned; the Celerio has no interest in corners and neither will an enthusiast in it.
First-Car Buyer
Budget-conscious and resale-aware
Cheap to run, easy to park, resale is strong and the AGS removes the clutch from a new driver’s worries.
Chauffeur-Driven Executive
Judged from the rear seat
Rear knee room is fine for a hatch but nothing about refinement or rear comfort suits a chauffeured owner.
Weekend Explorer
Ghats, dirt tracks and monsoon roads
Fine for a tarmac ghat run with two aboard; clearance and tyres are not for tracks.
Paint Protection
PPF for the Maruti Suzuki Celerio: What We Install and Why
Where it takes damage
Bonnet nose and lower front bumper pepper-chip first; rear bumper corners collect parking scuffs; darker metallics show dealer-polish swirls.
Our recommendation
AG1 full-front after a light correction of the delivery swirls; AG1 Square full body only on the dark metallic ZXi+ cars whose owners want the finish kept.
Coverage
Full front standard; add rear bumper corners for apartment parking.
