subject: Maruti Cervo Coming This June [print this page] If the Maruti officials are listening then it is for them to know that their low-cost car Maruti Cervo is being eagerly awaited in the Indian market. Maruti Cervo is targeted at the young generation and therefore emphasis has been laid on the designing of the car. The looks of Maruti Cervo are stylish and include an arching roof-line, sporty headlamps and fog lamps. The high mounted tail lamps also lend it a peppy look. The car does have some disadvantages like the rear seat of Cervo is sufficient only for two passengers and the luggage box has space to carry daily shopping bags only. Braking system in Maruti Cervo will be conventional type that will follow front disc and rear drum brake. We can't expect ABS system in this price range. The car will also house newer shock absorbers. The suspensions are responsible for smooth driving which not only increase riding pleasure but safety also.
But the Maruti Cervo has created lots of curiosity among buyers and other car makers are very keen on entering this segment. The Maruti Cervo has been conceptualised to fill the gap left after the phasing out of Maruti 800 and it would be the closest competition to Tata Nano till the time Bajaj-Renault-Nissan launch their Rs1 lakh car. The Maruti brand name promises better mileage by optimising fuel consumption. As per estimation, the car would give around 20-24 kmpl of mileage.
Maruti Cervo is all set to compete with higher models of Nano and the Maruti Cervo would be priced between Rs 1.5 Rs 2 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). The car is expected to roll out sometime in the month of June 2010 and industry observers are claiming that it might repeat the success of Maruti 800 and Maruti Alto. Maruti might reduce some features from the original Cervo model available in Japan. Maruti Cervo is a five door hatchback model and has a spacious passenger cabin. It would come with a 0.7L, 660cc petrol engine. Also brand Maruti is known to deliver good performance and fuel efficiency and thus the car is being awaited eagerly by the lower end customers.
