Maruti Cervo, a highly anticipated hatchback, is poised to make a significant impact in the Indian automotive market. Initially delayed due to the launch of Tata Nano, the world's cheapest car, Maruti Suzuki India Limited is now gearing up to introduce this model. Expected to launch in late 2011, the Cervo will compete with popular models like the Chevrolet Beat, Tata Nano, Hyundai i10, i20, and the upcoming Honda Brio. Already a success in Japan, Indian consumers are eagerly awaiting its arrival.
The Maruti Cervo boasts a striking exterior design that sets it apart from conventional hatchbacks. The front features sporty headlamps and fog lamps, while the A and C pillars add a unique touch. The car's aggressive grille, adorned with the company's signature logo, enhances its overall appeal. The rear of the Cervo is equally sporty, featuring 12-inch wheels. Expected exterior features include:
These elements collectively make the Cervo an attractive option for potential buyers.
The Maruti Cervo's interior is designed to offer a luxurious experience, albeit with some space constraints. While the front seats provide ample room, the rear seats may feel cramped for three adults. This makes the Cervo ideal for city driving but less suitable for long journeys. Expected interior features include:
These features aim to enhance the comfort and safety of the passengers.
Initially, Maruti Suzuki plans to launch the petrol variant of the Cervo in the Indian market. If well-received, a diesel variant may follow. The petrol variant will be equipped with a 660cc engine and a 4-speed automatic transmission, delivering a maximum power of 60 Bhp and a torque of 64 Nm. The engine will feature Variable Valve Timing (VVT) technology, which improves fuel efficiency and reduces emissions.

The Maruti Cervo is set to be a game-changer in the Indian hatchback market. With its stylish design, smart interiors, efficient engine, and comprehensive safety features, it promises to offer a compelling package for urban drivers. As the launch date approaches, the anticipation among Indian consumers continues to build, making the Cervo one of the most awaited cars of the year.
