Most Helpful Review

3 Cylinder Scrap

Old Baleno is a gem. This one is a 3-cylinder scrap. Suzuki doesn't consider people's interest in modifying the vehicle for mileage. What features does this new model have compared to the old Varies by new one? Better yet, go for a 4-cylinder Honda Amaze or Toyota Glanza; if Suzuki doesn't change its mind, people will think twice about Maruti Suzuki.

Eye catching vehicle

I think everything is fine except for the electronic parking brake and auto hold options. The ground clearance for the diesel automatic is missing, and there are issues with the after-sales service, interior quality, reverse camera quality, and horn.
