Maruti Celerio: Automatic Manual Transmission

Maruti Suzuki Celerio, the car that will replace the Alto (A-Star in India) globally will be launched at the Auto Expo 2014 which starts on Feb 5th. Ahead of its launch Maruti has made live the Celerio website which reveals a load of information about the upcoming small car.
The one key information for which we'll have to wait till the official launch is the price. The A-Star had a starting price of INR 3.9 lakhs (ex-showroom) that went up to INR 4.78 lakhs (ex-showroom). Maruti Suzuki can be expected to keep pricing in the same vicinity to make the car appealing.
First and foremost, EZ Drive, which is the commercial name used by Maruti for the automatic manual transmission, is a manual 5 speed gearbox that's fitted with a hydraulic mechanism that engages the clutch and shifts the gears for you.
How Maruti Celerio’s Clutchless Manual Gearbox Works
Celerio Is Based On The A-Wind Concept
The brains behind the hydraulic 'arm' are an electronic control unit and transmission control unit. These electronic units make the mechanism select the proper gear based on the acceleration and the engine rpm.
Considering EZ Drive is a regular manual gearbox connected to an addition electro-mechanical fitment it costs less than a conventional torque converter automatic gearbox or continuously variable transmission to manufacturer.
Another advantage the automatic manual transmission has over a conventional four speed automatic such as those found in most Indian hatchbacks and compact sedans is that the mileage remains the same as the manual variant. Maruti Celerio (automatic and manual) has an ARAI certified mileage of 23.1 km/l.
Maruti Celerio sounds like the perfect affordable automatic car, at least on paper. The only remaining factor that could play spoil sport is pricing. But we believe Maruti, being the cost sensitive brand it has always been, will price the Celerio between INR 3-5 lakh range, which should seal the deal.
