The new-generation Suzuki Celerio has touched down in South Africa. Here’s what you can expect to pay for the compact city hatchback.
The new Celerio is built on Suzuki’s HEARTECT platform, the same which underpins the Swift and S-Presso and features a rounder, more bulbous design than the outgoing Celerio.
With a length of 3 695mm and width of 1 655mm, the Celerio is both longer (+95mm) and wider (+55mm) than the current Celerio.
From what we can see, there two levels of trim: GA and GL. The Suzuki Celerio is offered with a choice of either a 5-speed manual gearbox or an automated manual transmission (AMT).
The engine of choice is a 1.0-litre 3-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol motor which delivers 49 kW and 89 Nm.
Initial details suggest the GL model comes with a number of convenience options such as 15-inch alloy wheels, body-coloured door handles and mirrors, front fog lights, electric mirrors, electric windows all-round, Bluetooth connectivity with steering wheel controls, remote central locking, 7-inch infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, USB port.
We’ll be driving the all-new Suzuki Celerio in Gauteng this week, look out for more info and our impressions soon.
