Suzuki Celerio (2015 - 2019) 1.0 SZ2 5d Owner Review

Bought my 2018 Celerio from a Suzuki main dealer. I wanted an A 2 B car, mainly City driving. My budget was up to £7.5K. Went to look at the Suzuki Celerio with just 13,600 miles covered, and almost like brand new. I was impressed with the room, inside for a small car, ease of access, both front, back, and boot. The rear seats fold 60/40 making a very sizeable area. Loved the colour, metallic blue. The dealer gave me an excellent px price on my 12yo Mazda 3, put a 12 month warranty, and new mot, so we decided to buy. Having owned the vehicle now for over 3 weeks, I just love this car. Its nippy in town, the gear changes are so very smooth, the brakes stop the car instantly. The 3 cylinder engine has to be revved, but by listening to the engine, and keeping the car moving without labouring, the driving style of this smaller 1.0L engine is easily learnt, and infact enjoyable, as it simply nips in and out of city traffic. The fuel consumption is absolutely amazing, over 57mpg in traffic and well over 60mpg on the motorway. 70mph does take a little longer to reach on a motorway, than say a 1.6L car, but give it ample revs and change gear around 4000rpm and it gets there sooner than you would think. The ride is comfortable, and noise level at speed is very acceptable for a small car. This vehicle is so easy to park too, a very tight turning circle, with excellent all round vision. No fancy gadgets though, they are minimal, mine is a basic SZ2, but it does have electric front windows, driver seat height adjustment, adjustable mirrors, a very good heater, courtesy light, good sound radio/CD, heated rear screen, phone charger, blue tooth connector. Yes it's basic, but who cares, it gets me from A to B comfortably, reliably, and very cheaply fuel wise. Buy one of these, and you will make a lot fewer trips to the petrol station. I can reccomend throughly if you want a reliable, easy to park, cheap to run city car, with occasional motorway use, and ample boot space. A very querky looking car, but highly practical and extremely cheap to run.
