Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Nissan Magnite
- Premium feeling cabin: Use of soft touch leatherette padding on all touch points makes the cabin look and feel upmarket
- Good safety kit: 6 airbags are being offered from the base-spec variant
- Smooth drives: It has one of the best performing CVTs under Rs 10 lakh
- Spacious cabin: For its price and segment, it offers one of the most spacious rear seat experience
Maruti Suzuki Baleno
- Features: Useful additions like ventilated seats, wireless charger and Level-2 ADAS
- Ride comfort: Isolates really well from bad roads and feels stable on the highway
- Refinement: Despite the 3-cylinder engine, feels refined with controlled vibrations
- Space: Accommodates four adults, including tall ones at the rear
- City drivability: Feels smooth and has good usable performance for city speeds

Nissan Magnite
- Less refined turbo-petrol engine: Vibrations can be felt in the footwell, on the steering wheel, and on the seats
- In consistent cabin quality: While the leatherette padding makes the cabin feel more premium, the flimsy AC knobs, and panel gaps have a negative impact on the overall cabin experience
- Small feature list: Still misses out on features like a sunroof, seat ventilation, and a big touchscreen
- Sub-par 360-degree camera: It has a grainy feed which is very hard to see in low light conditions
Maruti Suzuki Baleno
- Looks: New grille looks too bold in what is an otherwise sober styling
- Silly misses: No rear central armrest, front type-C ports and LED indicators
- Highway performance: Slow and gradual acceleration beyond 60kmph takes time to build speed
