3.0 Exterior | 3.0 Comfort | 1.0 Performance |
4.0 Fuel Economy | 2.0 Value for Money |
Exterior Maruti has shown that they are follower , copied the design from i20 and brought up the Projector Head Lamp and DRL from I20 Active, once again they showed they cannot match the exterior design , it cannot be compared with I20 Elite
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Navigation System is Good , which is used across S Cross,Ciaz.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Power is very less compared to I20 , JAZZ produces 100 PS and I20 produces 90 PS, Torque is very low for Baleno,once again Swift is different version,nothing much, I20 Diesel is 1.4 Litre Engine produces 90 PS, 220 NM Torque at 4000 RPM, but Baleno is still coming with 1.2xx engine producing 74 PS.
Ride Quality & Handling Simlar to Swift, it cannot provide a stable drive after 100 KMPH, Driven I20 Active, do not feel vehicle is touching 140 KMPH, very stable, do not expect from such low powered baleno.
Final Word It is not worth to buy such low powered vehicle in current era, I20 Elite/Active is worth for its power design and stability at high speed
Areas of improvement Power, apperance is no where they can sell at European Market. Only Navigation system is not an deciding factor to buy this, there are other parameters consumers will look at, not worth at buying Maruti anything more than 6 lakhs.
