Maruti cervo price features mileage – Maruti cervo launch in india

February 3rd, 2010

After 2-3 years maruti 800 will be a history in India.as very soon it will be replaced by a new Maruti Cervo model. It will be launched in month May-June 2010.The price of Maruti Cervo will be between Rs. 1.5 lakh to Rs 2.0 lakh (approx).

What Cervo stands for?

Cervo is all about affordability, efficient engine and an economical price tag. Its sleek looks are just an add-on to attract the right segment of the consumer

However, the Maruti Cervo price is little higher than Tata Nano but experts believe that it will give tough fight to Ratan Tata’s dream car in the market.Maruti is working very hard to tap the entry level segment and it might reduce some features from the original model available in Japan.

Maruti Cervo specifications: The new model has five-door hatchback and spacious.The Maruti Cervo is equipped with 0.7L, 660cc petrol engine, which will produce 60bhp power. The USP of this car is its fuel efficiency.

Maruti Udyog Limited (MUL) has announced to close the production of country’s first economy car Maruti 800 by the year 2012.

Arching roofline, sporty headlamps and fog lamps placed right next to the large grille makes the car look appealing.

The high mounted tail lamps also lend it a peppy look. However, the disadvantage is that the rear seat of Cervo is sufficient only for two passengers and the luggage box has space to carry daily shopping bags only.
