MSIL has expanded the Celerio range with the launch
of a new variant christened Maruti CelerioX. It is based on the facelifted
model that was launch in early October. The CelerioX is essentially a cross
version of the hatchback.
The Maruti CelerioX distinguishes itself from the
standard model through the application of what the company calls an ‘X-theme
based graphic’ around the grille in front. It also features black protective
cladding around the wheel arches and rear bumper.
The rear end gets a faux skid plate to complete the
crossover look. The grille, fog lamp area, roof rails, ORVMs, and the interior
get high gloss black accents. It rides on the same 6-spoke alloy wheels as the
regular variants, but in the CelerioX’s case, they are finished in black.
As opposed to the Celerio’s black and beige interior
treatment, the Maruti CelerioX boasts an all-black cabin. The seat upholstery
is black as well and features a geometric pattern and orange highlights.
The CelerioX is available only in the VXi, VXi(O),
ZXi, and ZXi(O) trims. It costs around INR 8,000 more than the regular Maruti
Celerio trims.
