Pros Cons of Maruti Suzuki Baleno

Pros

  • Refined and efficient 1.2-litre petrol engine
  • Comfortable ride quality when running over broken roads
  • Spacious fitted cabin with good space at the rear 
  • Segment-first features like HUD and 360-degree camera
  • Good resale value and extensive service network

Cons

  • AMT is not as smooth as its CVT or DCT counterparts.
  • No turbo-petrol option
  • No sunroof
  • Steering lacks feedback at high speeds
  • Boot space is compromised in the CNG variant

Verdict

The Maruti Suzuki Baleno is still one of the most sensible premium hatchbacks in India. It does not attempt to be the sportiest, nor does it pursue every trend in the segment. Instead, it is about refinement, practicality, efficiency, and usable technology. 
As noted by Shams Raza Naqvi during his review,

“The Baleno is likely to have lost some of the smoothness of the old CVT, but it has gained wider appeal through improved affordability and additional features.”

If you are looking for a turbocharged thrill machine, then the i20 N Line is the better option. If there's no question whatsoever about crash test reputation, then the Altroz may have an edge. But if you are seeking a reliable, comfortable, and fuel-efficient premium hatchback that can suit everyday Indian driving conditions, then the Baleno continues to justify its popularity.
