Trending Questions on Maruti Suzuki Celerio - Answered by Autocar Experts

Asked by: Ahmed Saadon Dec 14, 2025

I have been driving a manual Celerio for the past 10 years. The biggest benefit has been its very low maintenance, and I have never faced any electrical or mechanical issues. I am now planning to buy a new car next year, but I am confused about the budget. Initially, I was considering up to Rs 10 lakh, but now I feel I can stretch it to Rs 12 lakh. My main requirements are good city mileage, decent performance, and very low maintenance. Around 90% of my driving will be in the city, with a daily running of 30 to 40 km, and I also plan to do mountain trips about three times a year.

With a Rs 12 lakh budget you can get multiple body styles, including hatchbacks, compact sedans, or even SUVs. Since you've had a pleasant ownership experience, you could consider sticking to the Maruti brand itself, and shortlist Maruti Brezza, Dzire and Fronx.
If you're open to the sedan body style, get the Dzire for its space, comfort, efficiency and overall premium feel. For your mountain trips, though, the Fronx turbo will feel the most effortless to drive. That said, all the listed cars will fall within your budget, are likely to be efficient and low maintenance, and will feel like a big upgrade over your Maruti Suzuki Celerio.

Asked by: Balagan Muruganon Dec 10, 2025

My budget is around Rs 3 lakh, and I am looking for a family hatchback primarily for city commuting, for a family of four. Most of the options I am finding have been driven over 1,00,000 km and are usually second or third owner cars. My preference is for a Hyundai Eon or i10, but I am not getting a good deal. What should I ideally check while buying? Also, the car should be registered in 2016 or later.

You can check out the pre-owned cars at Spinny. For your Rs 3 lakh budget, you should find models like a Renault Kwid and Maruti Suzuki Celerio that would meet your mileage and 'build year' criteria.
You could also consider looking at older cars, as these are all checked and tested and come with a warranty. Moreover, while they may be older in age, you should be able to find a Hyundai Eon or i10 with lower mileage and a single-owner driven.
Also, remember that when buying used, it all dependent on stock, which changes almost daily, so wait a while and keep checking for cars until you find the one that you are happy with.

Asked by: Suhas Jagdaleon Dec 9, 2025

I currently own an i20 (2012-2014) Sports petrol variant and want to upgrade because itโ€™s quite old. I use the car very infrequently, mostly weekends or occasional family outings for four, and donโ€™t want to spend much since I already have 2-3 bikes for daily use. My budget is around โ‚น5 lakh; I prefer an automatic petrol car. Should I buy a used or a new car? Please suggest suitable options.

For a budget of Rs 5 lakh, there aren't many automatic new car options available. 

You could opt for a Maruti Suzuki S Presso VXi AMT, which would serve your needs. But as you need to carry four family members during your occasional weekend use, we would recommend upgrading to a Maruti Suzuki Celerio 1.0 Petrol VXi AMT. It is a bit more spacious and upmarket. 

However, yes, given your limited usage and need for passenger room, we would recommend checking out a used car

Asked by: Sanketon Dec 4, 2025

My dad currently drives a 2009 Hyundai i10 that is still in good condition with only 38,000 km on it, but due to its age and limited usage, it now needs frequent maintenance. I want to upgrade to an automatic hatchback for him. His usage will be around 200 km a month, mostly highway driving with occasional city trips. Please suggest an easy-to-drive, low-maintenance automatic car within a โ‚น7 lakh budget. Should I choose a new car or a pre-owned one?

In your budget, you can consider the Maruti Suzuki Celerio VXi or ZXi AMT based on the features you want. It is easy to drive with good seat height for easy ingress and egress, and being a Maruti Suzuki car, it should be reliable and easy to maintain, even with low running. Ride quality is good and should keep him comfortable on highway commutes.

A more premium choice is the Maruti Suzuki Ignis. The Delta AMT should just about fit your budget, and its smoother and more powerful 1.2 litre four cylinder engine makes it nicer to drive than the Celerio.

If you are open to a used car, you can explore Spinny.com, where you may find more premium options like the Swift or the Glanza within your budget.

Asked by: RNS Murthyon Nov 24, 2025

For a city commuter with occasional highway drives, which one should I choose between the Celerio and Wagon R?

Both the Celerio and the Wagon R come with the typical Maruti benefits of being fuel-efficient and cost-effective when it comes to service.
Between these two Maruti Suzuki cars, we would lean towards the Celerio. The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R has better headroom, but overall passenger space in the Celerio is more than enough, and the boot volume is also very good.
For your highway trips, the Maruti Suzuki Celerio will be a tad better with a more surefooted and composed feel at speed.

Asked by: Sohelon Nov 20, 2025

I own a 2012 Maruti Suzuki Ritz VDI. I enjoy the diesel performance and interior space, but I am facing issues with limited luggage capacity and a bumpy ride. I want to buy a used car under โ‚น6 lakh that offers similar space and punch, but with better boot space and ride quality. My usage is around 500 km per month, mostly city with occasional 500โ€“600 km highway trips. I live in a small town, so I need a reliable car that local mechanics can repair. Suggestions?

The Maruti Suzuki Celerio would be a good option, the boot is nice and large and well-shaped, such that it can easily carry a couple of large suitcases. The ride quality of this car is also good, especially so soaking up low speed bumps typical in city roads.
On highways, the ride is stable and being a Maruti Suzuki car, it can be repaired almost anywhere. The only bit you would really miss when compared to your Ritz is the diesel engine torque, but at your budget, you would not find a diesel today.

Asked by: Indranil Janaon Nov 17, 2025

I want to buy the Celerio LXi instead of the Alto K10 VXi. Is it a better option? Which car is more stable on the highway? How about body roll and NVH levels in both?

The Maruti Suzuki Celerio is a larger and heavier car, and correspondingly feels more confident on the highway than a Maruti Suzuki Alto K10. The Celerio will have a slight advantage in NVH, too, and will feel more stable during cornering. Both are city cars, though, and not ideal for highway drives. 

Within the same budget, you could also consider the Tata Tiago in XE trim, which feels tougher in its build and drives with more heft than the Maruti Suzuki options.

Asked by: Vibhor Sharmaon Nov 11, 2025

I want a small car with good fuel efficiency. My budget is โ‚น6 lakh. Iโ€™m considering the Alto K10 and S-Presso as I want reliability and hassle-free ownership. Which one is better, or should I consider another car?

Given your requirements and your budget of โ‚น6 lakh, you're right, the Maruti Suzuki Alto K10 and S-Presso are your best options. Both of these Maruti Suzuki cars use the same engine and gearboxes, and offer the same hassle-free driving experience.
Of the two, the Alto K10 has the advantage of offering six airbags as standard across the range, while the S-Presso only gets two. However, the Maruti Suzuki S-Presso offers more interior space, should you travel with passengers often.
You could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. You might only get a mid-range variant in your budget, but it offers more space and a more upmarket feel than the Alto and S-Presso.

Asked by: Abdul Rayaanon Nov 9, 2025

My parents, aged 55+, are looking to purchase a new car for city use. We specifically want an automatic. Our budget is โ‚น6-12 lakh (on-road). Our main priorities are easy drivability in the city, some must-have features, good looks, and resale value. Mileage is not a concern as they drive only 500 km a month. The Cars we shortlisted are Alto K10, Swift, Celerio, i10, and Fronx. Which is a better value for money?

Of the cars you have shortlisted, the Maruti Suzuki Celerio is probably the best value for money, as it is priced just above the Alto K10 and shares its engine, while offering up space, practicality, interior quality, and some features from larger, more expensive Maruti Suzuki cars. It is also among the most fuel-efficient petrol cars on sale, even though that is not really an issue for you.
You should also consider the Nissan Magnite 1.0 Turbo CVT, as it offers a much smoother automatic gearbox for the same amount of money; all the cars you have shortlisted feature the more basic AMT automatic gearbox.
V
Asked by: Violet Monteiroon Nov 9, 2025

This will be my first car, and Iโ€™m looking for an automatic version with a budget of about โ‚น7 lakh. Please suggest.

Since this is your first car, a hatchback makes sense due to its compact size and ease of use. In your budget, consider the Maruti Suzuki Celerio or the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R.
Both come with the same 1.0-litre petrol engine paired with an AMT gearbox, but the Wagon R offers a more practical cabin. Both of these Maruti Suzuki cars are easy to maintain and hassle-free to own.
