The Maruti Suzuki Baleno 2025 continues to lead the premium hatchback space with its sharp styling and aerodynamic design that reflects both sportiness and elegance. The front fascia features a wide grille with chrome accents, flanked by LED projector headlamps and striking DRLs that now follow a signature three-dot pattern.
Premium Interiors With SmartPlay Pro+ Touchscreen, Head-Up Display, and Spacious Comfort
Inside, the Baleno 2025 has received thoughtful upgrades that blend comfort, technology, and user-friendly ergonomics. The cabin features a dual-tone black and navy blue theme with silver accents, soft-touch dashboard material, and a leather-wrapped flat-bottom steering wheel that feels both sporty and upmarket. The center of attraction is the 9-inch SmartPlay Pro+ touchscreen infotainment system powered by Arkamys sound tuning, offering wireless Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and voice-enabled controls. A standout feature is the Head-Up Display (HUD), which shows speed, turn indicators, and more right in the driver’s line of sight. Other top features include cruise control, auto climate control, push-button start, rear AC vents, and a 360-degree view camera that adds practicality and safety to city driving. The boot space of 318 liters and improved rear-seat legroom make it ideal for both daily use and weekend getaways.
Efficient 1.2L DualJet Petrol Engine With AMT and Outstanding Mileage
The Maruti Baleno 2025 is powered by the refined 1.2-litre DualJet, Dual VVT petrol engine that produces 89PS power and 113Nm of torque. It is paired with either a 5-speed manual or a smooth-shifting AMT (automated manual transmission), giving users the flexibility to choose based on their driving style. The engine is BS6 Phase 2 and E20 fuel compliant, contributing to lower emissions. Thanks to Suzuki’s lightweight HEARTECT platform and fuel-efficient tuning, the Baleno delivers excellent mileage—up to 22.35 kmpl for the manual and around 22.94 kmpl for the AMT variant—making it one of the most fuel-efficient petrol hatchbacks in the country. The clutch and gear shifts feel light, ideal for city traffic, while its peppy acceleration makes highway drives enjoyable.
Enhanced Safety With 6 Airbags, ESP, Hill Hold, and Strong Build Quality
Maruti has strengthened the Baleno’s safety credentials in the 2025 model. It now comes with 6 airbags in the top trims, electronic stability program (ESP), hill hold assist, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors with a camera, seatbelt reminders, and ISOFIX mounts. The new Baleno also uses high-tensile steel for improved structural rigidity and crash protection. The HEARTECT platform further contributes to better energy absorption during impacts. The 360-degree camera system with dynamic guidelines and front view display makes urban parking and narrow lanes easier to navigate, especially for new drivers. This new emphasis on safety gives the Baleno a competitive edge over rivals in the premium hatchback segment.
Balanced Urban Hatchback With High Features, Strong Mileage, and Nexa Experience
The Maruti Suzuki Baleno 2025 delivers an all-around premium experience with stylish looks, advanced features, strong mileage, and the assurance of Maruti’s massive service network. Offered in Sigma, Delta, Zeta, and Alpha variants with multiple color options, it caters to a wide range of buyers from young professionals to small families. Prices start from around ₹6.90 lakh and go up to ₹9.90 lakh (ex-showroom), making it one of the best value-for-money offerings in the segment. Sold through the Nexa premium channel, customers also enjoy an elevated ownership experience. Whether you prioritize comfort, features, fuel efficiency, or a strong brand, the 2025 Baleno ticks all the right boxes for a modern Indian hatchback buyer.
