Maruti Increases Celerio Production; Ciaz Undergoes Final Testing
Sources at Cogencis have said that Indian car manufacturer Maruti Suzuki is gearing up to increase the production of the Celerio from 6000 units per month to 7500 units from July this year.
To fix the demand, Maruti Suzuki will need to increase production, but since the Indian car manufacturer imports the Automatic manual transmission, an option available in the Celerio, from the Italian company Magneti Marelli, the process will take some time. Currently the waiting period for the Celerio is 4 to 5 months.

Maruti knows that the increase in production will take off gradually and hence have doubled the order to Magneti Marelli. The Italian systems manufacturer currently provides 1000 units on a monthly basis and the tally will increase to 3000 units per month from October 2014.

Clearly, Maruti Suzuki has understood that AMT will play a larger role not only in the Celerio but also in the other cars that will be introduced to the Indian market soon. With the Ciaz on the way, it looks like Maruti Suzuki is gearing up for a rise in the demand of their cars.
