Review after 25000+ km

I own a Baleno Sigma 2024, and I’ve driven it for around 25,000 km so far. The buying and service experience has been smooth and satisfactory. It’s a good family car — the engine feels adequately powered, and I’ve never really felt it lacks performance. That said, there are a few drawbacks. The ground clearance is quite low, and the car scrapes easily on rough roads or big speed breakers. The build quality isn’t very solid either, and the rattling noises from the doors, windows, and dashboard can be irritating. Another major downside is the poor performance of the stock headlights and fog lamps — visibility at night is not confidence-inspiring and definitely needs an upgrade. On the positive side, the boot space is impressive, making it practical for family trips. However, the rear seat comfort could have been much better, especially for long drives. Overall, the Baleno Sigma is a reliable and efficient family hatchback, but it falls short in comfort, refinement, and lighting performance.
