Things which can improve the popularity of this sedan are:


1.Give two tone biege interiors with leather upholstery.


2.Give power antenna as standard fitment.


3.Introduce 15 inches radials alloys as standard fitment.


4.If a CNG version is introduced it definitely would kill the competition.


5.Change rear lamp assembly to a curvish/round one.


Maruti should not discontinue the production of this sedan because of its popularity and advantages(which is reflected in the monthly sales figures),rather company should try to make it a more attractive package(as suggested above 1-5).A mistake should not be committed to leave 5-5.5 lacs bracket vacant(more so,when Baleno is a steal at its present price)  after a new sedan(6-7 lacs)is introduced in near future.


In nut shell,Baleno should auger well for Maruti company if this seadan is managed well.

    I too own a Baleno, but the only glitch is its low ground clearance(seems the muffler assembly hits the ground everytime when I drive over a hump).Is anybody experiencing the same problem. Please let me know.

    I am using Baleno VXI since last 1.5 year and have driven 20,000 Kms I have not experienced problems with ground clearance it should be 172. Check air pressure in tyres and studs. Try using nitrogen gas in tubeless tyres you dont need to refill in 2 months.
