Remember Suzuki’s A-Wind Concept revealed last year at the Thailand International Motor Expo? It has morphed into the Suzuki Celerio production car that just made its debut at the Delhi Auto Expo as the Maruti Suzuki Celerio. 
A follow-up to the Suzuki Alto, the Celerio is a global A-segment mini that will make its European premiere at the 2014 Geneva International Motor Show (March 4-16).
Suzuki says the Celerio features “an exceptionally roomy interior for an A-segment car” and has low CO2 emissions that comply with European environmental requirements. No other details were given about the Euro-spec version.
The Maruti Suzuki Celerio unveiled in India is 3,600mm (141.7in) long, 1,600mm (63in) wide and 1,560mm (61.4in) tall and weighs between 810 and 830 kg (1,786-1,830 lbs). Boot volume is 235 liters (8.3 cubic-feet).
Just like the concept car and the current Suzuki Alto, the production version is powered by a three-cylinder 1.0-liter engine that produces 67 hp and 90 Nm (66 lb-ft) of torque. Mated to an automated manual transmission, the Celerio returns 23.1 km/l (4.3 l/100 km) in the ARAI (Automotive Research Association of India) mileage test. In India, the Celerio is offered with an optional five-speed manual gearbox.
The Celerio will be built in Thailand starting this year and will be sold worldwide.
