Maruti Suzuki Baleno Quick Review
The smartly turned-out Baleno scores well for practicality with its cabin, which offers more space than many pricier sedans. The boot is generously-sized, too. 2019's update has added colour to the cabin but material quality is mediocre by class standards.
The Maruti Suzuki Baleno’s 84hp, 1.2-litre petrol engine is peppy, refined and efficient; and the five-speed manual gearbox is also nice to use. City dwellers will find a good combination of efficiency and convenience in the CVT auto variant. The car’s 75hp, 1.3-litre diesel engine is superb on fuel economy but is also loud and simply feels outdated.
The Baleno’s ride and handling are fine and the controls are light but the steering’s lack of adequate self-centring takes getting used to.
