1. Not really great, had some confusions regarding the payments and all, but it was sorted out. I bought car from thrissur, I think it took some time and effort by Nexa to find such a connected and limited space to setup their office. I didn't felt anything premium in terms of experience.
2. Riding is better than many cars. It has good low and high speed ride quality. Btw, this car can't match the high-speed ride of old punto or low speed ride of say - vista. It's a tasteful blend. I had long drives and came out without getting tired and joints free from aches. My old Zen has failed to do this everytime. You get a comfortable seating position, view,and ergonomics are to my preference. Which helps it further.
3. I don't like - " look at me" kind of exterior, rather understated looks are fine for me. And Baleno is just good at that. Only bad thing they did was putting RS tag to it, this brings unnecessary comparisons. Could've been boosterjet instead. Having said that, this car is tailor made for my preference. What I was looking for was a practical, spacious, reliable petrol car with a better performance compared to the mass segment cars. Cars that were shortlisted are - Polo GT, Jazz,i20, here Jazz- Didn't like the shape, feel of mini Innova still in my head. But that is a great thing if you want more space inside. Interiors were not to my liking, but deal breaker was the meek 1.2L engine. There was a good chance Iam buying jazz if that 116bhp free revving motor was on offer with 10 lakhs on road price. Polo GT Flip the jazz perspective, you get this car. plenty of power and an effortless DSG combo is great for driving. But really limited space, and exterior looks are within my taste. Deal breaker here was the notorious DQ200 transmission they carried forward, I know it's an expensive transmission to begin with, and I was not particularly looking for a Automatic at that moment. And I can't afford either the crazy repair charges or arrogance of VW people out there in show rooms. Here they lost the opportunity to launch a manual version with this engine. The on road price couldve been 1 lakh less! Certainly I wouldve thought about it and maybe I would trade the space inside for that. Maybe! i20 In short - everything was in favour of i20, even though it lacks the agility and handling of baleno, riding experience is very nice but 1.2 L engine is extremely smooth and silent at idle and Normal running, but it is such a dull car, I can't think of it, after switching from a Zen. That's how I landed on Baleno RS. Every requirements were met. Earlier priced at 10.20lakhs, and thanks to GST the car got a price cut of around 60k and I bought it! It's faster and very easy to drive also returns a respectable fuel efficiency too. Comes with all around disc, and braking is very good. Additionally the turbo charger gives the option of doing a remap, when I feel the power is not enough, in the near future.
4. Its maruti and it is not questionable like ever.
5. Cons are - lack of better tyres, light build quality. Iam not a auto designer to comment the structure of this car. But, sheet metal thickness is relatively less, and prone to dents, inn the future. #2,and #3 talks about pros, there are many more. But that's not a big deal for someone who reads this. Consider them as a bonus!

Truly this car is worth it's price. Look is awesome, performance is also better than it's rivals. Really I am quite happy with my choice. The apple infotainment system is awesome.
Pros: Look, features, space.
Cons: Suspension would be better but it's ok.

Exterior Exterior of this car is good and well designed. Looks are imressive.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interios and Features in Baleno is best in its class. After all comparisons Baleno does stands top in this department. This car is more of a Sedan when comes to space. Second row sitting has amazing leg space and 3 can sit with comforts.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is little noisy, Mileage is about 19 in heavy traffic (Still Good) and Gearbox is just ok. CVT is missing in Deisel variant.
Ride Quality & Handling Vehicle is too light, hence highway drive is not very good. Breaking is ok ok. Road grip on highways is on lower side. Max speed is 160, after that car looses its control.
Final Words Good Car for City Drive (everyday usage).
Areas of improvement Definately Body weight should be imrpoved. Rear Vent for AC is important.
A CVT variant in Diesel is demand of the day. These days all cars have Automatic and Triptonic transmission in Deisel variants, infact Swift has it. So, why not Baleno. These cars are meant for city drive and if Automatic isn't available then lot of market share is lost.

Hi, I m from Coimbatore, I bought this car on 13th June 18, delta CVT model, now I reached 1000km only, driving experince is good, comfort is nice, interior and exterior look is superb. But only bad is milage I got only 12km for petrol. I expect 18per lit. I may come on after 2nd service, then one more think need to write it's service is nice but cost is high, service engineers response is good. Keep it up.

Baleno RS is a hot hatch with good amount of practicality. It has a 1 L boosterjet engine with an output of 105 BHP and 145 nm of torque which are good figures. The car is good looking and an eye catcher. The sheet metal is a lil thin and prone to minor dents. The interior of the car is good with ample of space and legroom.
Feature list is top notch. Performance of the car is good with 0-100 in 10.5 seconds. Ride quality is superb on good roads. Potholes and bumps feel inside the car at low speeds, though not very bad. The car feels stable till 120 kph and you tend to lose confidence as you accelerate higher that that. The mileage is 13-14 kmpl in the city when driven properly. Enthusiastic driving returns around 12kmpl in the city. Mileage on the highway is around 18kmpl which is fine for a petrol hot hatch.
The tyres are Apollo Alnac 4G which provide fair amount of road grip and also supports occasional super fast speeds. Steering is light and good for the city but feels a lil lifeless on the highway runs. The interior plastic quality could’ve been little better as well as the low speed ride quality. Overall it’s a very good car with good reliability and extremely low maintenance.

Exterior Its a personal topic.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Leg Space is in plenty , Android Auto Plays Well, Speakers are really smmoth in ears,MID is informative, Highway Ride is steady, As its a hatch back backseats are not as comfortable as of a sedan(But Acceptable), Front seats are really good.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Its a low powered Engine but vehcile weight makes for it, Mileage is impressive because of low Power and lighter weight ( I got 23.5 kmpl on a trip to Kasauli with 5 seating, Luggage and AC on), Gear Box is not like a butter, Need to shift regularly at lower speeds to maintain torque.
Ride Quality & Handling Good on Highway , city ride is also composed but have to shift gears to maintain torque.
Final Words Go for Aplha-If projector and Android Auto Matters.
Go for Zeta- If Projector and Android Auto doesnt Matter.
Go for Delta-If basic features & basic interiors can do.
Go for Sigma- If want a car with good average & Space.
Areas of improvement NA.
