Maruti Suzuki has launched the Baleno facelift in India at ₹6.10 lakh, featuring a new 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine, revised styling, upgraded features and Level 2 ADAS on the top-spec Alpha (O) variant.
Maruti Suzuki has launched the updated Baleno facelift in India, bringing revised styling, a new petrol engine, additional features and upgraded safety technology.
The refreshed premium hatchback now gets the company's 1.2-litre Z-Series three-cylinder petrol engine, along with features such as ventilated front seats and Level 2 ADAS on the top-spec variant.
The new Baleno is available in five variants - Sigma, Delta, Zeta, Alpha and Alpha (O). Prices start at ₹6.10 lakh (ex-showroom).
The biggest mechanical change is the introduction of Maruti Suzuki's 1.2-litre Z-Series three-cylinder petrol engine, borrowed from the Swift and Dzire.
The engine is available with a five-speed manual transmission or AMT gearbox. Buyers can also opt for a factory-fitted CNG version, which is offered with a manual transmission.
The facelift brings subtle changes to the Baleno's exterior rather than a complete redesign. It gets a larger front grille with black horizontal slats, while the headlamps and tail lamps remain largely unchanged.
The bumpers have been redesigned with revised fog-lamp housings. The 16-inch alloy wheels feature a new design, while a shark-fin antenna has also been added.
The overall dimensions remain unchanged, with the Baleno measuring 3,990mm in length and featuring a 2,520mm wheelbase.
Maruti Suzuki has also introduced a new Enigmatic Teal colour option.
The updated Baleno offers a wider range of comfort, convenience, and safety features, with equipment varying by variant.
