How Many Bucks for New Celerio! Find out Here

MANILA: First half of 2015 has passed away and we have already witnessed quite a few new car launches and facelift versions, but hold on and gear up for the next half too, as we have another set of cars coming in the remaining months of this year. One of them being the new Suzuki Celerio which is scheduled to land in Philippines in a couple of weeks’ time. The company would launch this upcoming hatchback in the Philippines market on August 5, 2015.

Prior to this, the Japanese car manufacturer Suzuki shed the covers off the mini hatchback in February last year in India, which has received a mind blowing response in the mileage savvy country. Now, it’s time to move to Philippines and conquer the hatchback segment.

A local distributor of Suzuki in Philippines revealed the pricing and features of the new Celerio today. Under the bonnet, this mini hatchback will be powered by a K10B power mill accompanied with 3 cylinders that can deliver a maximum power output of 67 hp and 90 Nm of torque at 3,500 rpm.

The dealer also revealed that the engine will be mated to a manual transmission as well as comes with a Continous Variable Transmission (CVT) that will hit showrooms with a price tag of P 507,000 and P 542,000 respectively.

An early reservation could help you avail a discount of P 20,000 for the new Celerio, which is already on display in showrooms across the country.

The new 2015 Celerio comes with an enlarged wheelbase, a longer exterior body and more headspace inside the cabin as compared to the previous version.

Hiroshi Suzuki, president of Suzuki Philippines mentioned in a statement, "We are very excited to introduce our A+ compact car to the Filipino market," he also added, "With its superior design, best-in-class luggage capacity, superb ease of driving, and outstanding fuel efficiency, we are confident that the all-new Celerio is set to be the new standard in its segment."
