New Maruti Baleno Facelift To Get Extensive Changes 

After the new Brezza, Maruti Suzuki will launch its next car which is the facelift for its Baleno premium hatchback. 

Baleno has been one of the best selling Maruti Suzuki cars and the only hugely popular premium hatchback. 

Now with a facelift, the Baleno will gain extensive changes to its looks, interiors and features. 

Baleno Facelift New Features

Going by the teaser image, the new Baleno will be a facelift and will get changes to its front end styling as well as new alloy wheels plus tweaked rear styling. 

The interior will also get a larger touchscreen, new features and refreshed upholstery. 

The new Baleno will not be expected to get any mechanical upgrades which means it will continue with its 1.2l petrol with AMT and manual options. 

However, if like the Brezza, the new Baleno gets a new 6 speed manual gearbox then it will further help in its fuel efficiency and driving performance.

What Will Make This An Exciting Option?

The new Brezza recently had a turbo petrol engine with a 6 speed manual and if offered in the Baleno it will make it an enticing option although that seems unlikely but a hybrid powertrain could also be an interesting option. 

Launch Date

More details would be known closer to the launch which is September 6th. 

The Baleno has been a consistent seller and one of the few premium hatchbacks that have done well despite a growing appetite for SUVs. 

We expect prices to remain competitive despite the changes for the facelifted version. 

The Baleno CNG could also be getting the underbody treatment like on the Brezza and Victoris which will further help with the demand. 

The Maruti Suzuki Baleno will sold via the Nexa sales channel alongside the Fronx and others.
