New Suzuki Cultus or Celerio Pakistan Specifications – All you want to know about the new Cultus 2017
New Suzuki Cultus also was known as Celerio has just been launched in Pakistan by Pak Suzuki. Suzuki Celerio has been rebranded as Cultus in Pakistan which is equipped with a 1000CC engine and two airbags. Although some features of Celerio have not been introduced in Pakistani markets such as CVT technology, and controls on the steering.
Moreover, the car is overpriced as compared to the global market where you can get the high variant of Celerio between $8000 – $9000 with a lot of up to date features. The price range introduced in Pakistan is 1.391 million for the high variant without auto CVT transmission.
After the recent change in Automobile policy, the Government has however focused on forcing the current Automobile companies to produce new variants but they have been completely silent about the over pricing and quality of the cars produced in Pakistan especially by Pak Suzuki.
