The K10B engine in the Celerio X is more fun to drive than the K10C new Celerio?

The car was lighter, so the X's engine felt peppier. If you put the K10C in the X's body it might actually be the best of both worlds!
Should Maruti have missed a trick by not offering the Celerio X with the 1.2L engine from the Swift?

Absolutely! With a 1.2L, a Celerio X would have been a pocket rocket. That was a big miss by Maruti.

Nah, the X would've been too expensive if it did. It was never meant to be a hot hatch, it was meant to be a stylish budget option.

If they had positioned it right, it could've worked. Maybe to fill the gap between Swift Juniors and some other segment.

The X's size was just peppy enough to make the 1.0L seem okay. It might have been overkill anything more powerful, and hurt its efficiency.

I'm torn. It would have been fun with the 1.2L, but that might have cannibalised Swift. It's possible that Maruti played it safe.

At the very least they should have had the option. Let buyers choose between efficiency and performance.

India could have had the X with 1.2L as the answer to the VW Up! GTI. Missed opportunity for sure.
Was the Celerio X a car ahead of its time by predicting the mini-SUV trend?
30 December 2024 07:36
Totally ahead of its time! Had Maruti stuck with it and evolved the concept, they would've probably beaten everyone to the mini SUV punch.

No, it was just the latest trend globally. It came before the Kwid which really kickstarted the rugged small car thing in India.

It wasn’t quite there, but it was a step in the right direction. Less a trendsetter and more of a test balloon.

The S-Presso could run, so the X walked. Even if they didn’t fully commit to it, Maruti was definitely onto something.

I think it was right on time, not ahead. Later models proved the market was ready for cars like this.

It sure predicted the styling trend. Now it missed the point with the added ground clearance people actually care about in these mini SUVs.

Maruti was dipping their toes in the water with the Celerio X. Perhaps they just used it to test the waters before going all in with the S-Presso.
Was Maruti missing a trick by discontinuing the Celerio X?
30 December 2024 07:36
Absolutely! The new gen Celerio X did lack the unique charm of the older gen. Perfect for young buyers who wanted something funky without paying through the nose.

No, I don’t think Maruti made a mistake. It probably didn't sell well enough to keep it around. You gotta kinda trim the fat sometimes.

I get why they axed it, it's a shame they did though. Its sales were probably cannibalized by the regular Celerio. But I want them to have at least kept some of the design elements of the old gen.

Missed opportunity for sure. They could have done the X concept for the new gen and made a proper mini crossover to take on the Tata Punch.

I'm torn. The X looked cool but Maruti knows better about their market. Perhaps they have something like that planned for the future.
