Reportedly, the 2019 Maruti Celerio will be sold in
a price range of INR 4.39-5.56 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), which will make it up
to INR 18,000 costlier than before. With the introduction of the latest set of
updates, all the variants of the company's Tata Tiago and Hyundai Santro rival
will come equipped with ABS, dual front airbags, a speed warning system, front
seatbelt reminder (SBR) and reverse parking sensors.
In July 2018, Maruti
Suzuki announced that nine out of its fifteen models, including the Celerio,
already comply with the updated full-frontal impact, off-set-frontal impact and
side impact crash test norms that will come into play in October 2019.
The Maruti Celerio continues to be powered by the
K10B 1.0-litre three-cylinder petrol engine that produces 67 hp of
maximum power and 90 Nm of peak torque. The small car is available with a
petrol-CNG engine that offers 58 hp of power and 78 Nm of torque
as well. While both the fuel variants are available with a 5-speed manual
transmission, the former can be even bought with a 5-speed automated manual
transmission optionally.
As per a report that surfaced in January 2019, the
company will launch the second generation Maruti Celerio (codename: Maruti YNC)
in the second half of 2020. The new model is likely to be underpinned by the
fifth generation Heartect platform that will result in improvements in crash
safety and vehicle dynamics. The all-new model will even have a stronger
structure and will comply with the new pedestrian crash safety norms that come
into effect next year.
