· Automobile · RushLane, Hindustan Times
Maruti Suzuki has launched the refreshed Baleno in India with a starting price of Rs 6.10 lakh ex-showroom, marking a significant upgrade in safety and fuel efficiency. The new model introduces a 24.77 kmpl mileage claim with the Z12E petrol engine and Level 2 ADAS, including features like Advanced Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control. Key additions include ventilated front seats, a 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless charging, and a premium Clarion audio system. The exterior redesign features a new NEXWave grille, shark-fin antenna, and seven colour options, including Enigmatic Teal. Bookings have opened for a token amount of Rs 11,000.
Why it matters
This launch directly impacts Indian car buyers seeking fuel-efficient, safer, and feature-rich hatchbacks, with the Baleno now competing more strongly against rivals like the Hyundai Grand i10 and Tata Tiago. Maruti’s focus on ADAS and premium interiors could also influence broader industry trends toward advanced safety and tech integration in affordable vehicles.
