The new Maruti Suzuki Celerio will be built on Suzuki's Heartect platform

The leaked images also give a closer look to the cabin which is fully draped under camouflaged concealing key details. However, a closer look at the picture suggests that the car will get a new interior design, new centre console, new upholstery, new features and SmartPlay infotainment unit with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It is expected to get features like multi-functional steering wheel, multi-information display, electrically adjustable ORVMs, keyless entry, dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, reverse parking sensors and more.

As seen in the spy images, the pre-production version of the Celerio looks slightly bigger with a longer wheelbase and higher ground clearance. The test vehicle reveals a redesigned front profile with a new grille with new headlamps. The prototype appears to be a base model featuring steel rims. It also gets a new pair of taillights with LED signature styling, redesigned rear bumper and well-designed tailgate. The car could employ Suzuki's new generation Heartect platform that also underpins Maruti S-Presso, Swift and the WagonR.

The upcoming next-gen Maruti Suzuki Celerio hatchback could be bigger than the outgoing model

The hatchback was first introduced in our market in 2014 followed by a mid-life facelift in 2017. The car has been in business for around six years, and it has witnessed a decent amount of success despite the rising competition in the space. The Indo-Japanese carmaker believes this is the right time to introduce the all-new Celerio. Interestingly, it was the first model to come with Automated Manual Transmission that brought the convenience of an AMT with an affordable price tag.
