Hard to get so much space, comfort, control and style in this segment

Exterior I just loved the car when i first looked at it. while purchsing this car i had 3 other cars shortlisted, namely grand i10, brio, swift. all these cars are excellent but what really made me to go for this car was its looks, that is before i took its test drive.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It is extreamly comfortable, to just give a perspective i feel more comfortable sitting in baleno than sitting in my 2014 honda city. it has excellent leg space, seats are broad and comfortable. has a powerful AC.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox It is probably the best car in this segment. i have taken this car to speeds of over 140kmph and the car remained stable and was in full control. i didnt feel even for a moment that i need to slow down (i.e. before a cattle came on the road). even when i put the brakes on in high speed the vehicle was in complete control. gear shift is very smooth.  I am getting a fuel economy of around 16 kmpl in city and get around 20 kmpl on highways. in the pas 8 months that i have owned this car i have driven it for over 10000 KMs and find it to be worth every penny i have put on it.

Ride Quality & Handling It is an excellent ride. even at high speeds. has great control even while breaking at high speeds. high ground clearance lets me to take this to my farm house which is on a road full of big pot holes.

Final Words I would suggest everyone to atleast test drive it once before buying any other car. in this price range I don't think we can get a better car. 

Areas of improvement The only thing I feel they can improve on is that the suspension is a bit hard which is excellent when i go for long drives and on roads full of pot holes but is not so comfortable for speed brakers in city.

excellent leg space, very comfortable, excellent boot space, good control, nice fuel efficiencynone
