Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Celerio
- Spacious and comfortable cabin: Can seat four adults in good comfort.
- Performance is peppy for the city and returns a good fuel efficiency too.
- Good features: Ticks all the functional equipment, along with some extra comfort features.
- Easy to drive: Light clutch, light steering and good low-end performance makes it new-driver friendly.
Maruti Suzuki Baleno
- Spacious interior: Seats four adults, including two 6-footers back-to-back with ease.
- Good adjustability: Gets tilt and telescopic steering adjustment and height adjustable driver seat.
- Dependable petrol engine: Refined, peppy and efficient for city usage.
- Comfortable ride quality: Maintains comfort even over bad roads.
- Good storage options: Practical cabin and 318-litres of boot space can accommodate multiple suitcases.

Maruti Suzuki Celerio
- Not so stable: Ride quality at higher speeds feels firm and causes some side-to-side cabin movement.
- Limited cabin practicality: Could be better with more storage space in front of and behind the handbrake.
- Base LXi and VXi variants are not value for money: Pack only the absolute basics.
Maruti Suzuki Baleno
- AMT transmission: Not as smooth or quick as the CVT or DCT offered with its rivals.
- Soft seat cushioning may hamper comfort for long drives.
