Maruti Suzuki India on Wednesday introduced the all-new Celerio, starting at ₹4.99 lakh. This is the first car in the company’s portfolio to be powered by the K-Series Engine, which Maruti Suzuki said helps the new Celerio to give a mileage of 26.68 km/litre.
“India is now the fifth-largest car market globally and Maruti Suzuki is proud to contribute nearly half of this...If we have to grow the Indian market further, we have to pay special attention to the volume segment,” the company’s MD and CEO Kenichi Ayukawa said.
He added that India is primarily a small car market, with hatchbacks contributing close to 46% of total passenger vehicle sales. “All-new Celerio with the K10 C engine is the most fuel-efficient petrol car in the Indian passenger car segment... Together with teams at Suzuki Motor Corporation, our engineers have achieved major fuel efficiency improvement ranging from 15% to 23% across variants over the outgoing Celerio,” he said.
February 2025 saw a 2% increase in passenger vehicle sales in India, with upcoming festivals expected to boost demand.
