Maruti Suzuki Celerio X: What it’ll look like?

Maruti Suzuki has launched the new Celerio in the Indian market. This is the first time the hatchback has received a major update since it was first launched back in 2014. Maruti did introduce a Celerio X which was a more rugged-looking version of the regular Celerio. Here, we have a rendering of the new generation of  Celerio X.

The rendering has been done by SRK Designs and the video has been uploaded on YouTube. The artist has just rendered the front of the hatchback. The original Celerio X was also just a cosmetic upgrade over the regular Celerio. It was offered in more funky colours such as Orange, Blue, Brown, White and Grey.

The artist has rendered the new generation of Celerio X in a bright yellow colour. The front bumper is the same but the lower half is now finished in black and gets a faux skid plate. The chrome slat in the grille has been repainted to black. There is also black plastic cladding on the doors. The wheels are different and are finished in yellow colour to match the exterior. The rearview mirrors are finished in black colour. Overall, the rendered Celerio X looks more rugged than the regular Celerio.

This was the purpose of the Celerio X. It looked slightly more rugged and looked different from the regular Celerio. There were some minor tweaks to the interior too. It came with different seat upholstery and with coloured accents. This made the interior look different from other hatchbacks at that time. However, now many manufacturers are offering different accents and colour options of the interior.

There were no changes mechanical changes to the Celerio X. It is important to note that as of now, Maruti Suzuki has not announced the Celerio X officially. The rendering has been done based on the imagination of the artist.
