Baleno 2015-2022 1.2 CVT Delta Review

Maruti Suzuki offers the Baleno hatchback with a CVT (continuously variable transmission) only with the petrol engine. It is available in two trim levels - Delta and Zeta. In both trim levels, the CVT unit comes paired to a 1.2-litre, four-cylinder petrol engine that produces 84PS of power and 115Nm of torque. The setup returns an impressive fuel-efficiency figure of 21.4kmpl, which is exactly the same as its manual-transmission counterparts. The CVT unit has five modes in its configuration - park, reverse, neutral, drive and low. Find out what other variants of Maruti Baleno offer in terms of comfort and safety features.

The premium hatchback comes with 37 litres of fuel tank capacity, 339 litres of boot space, 170mm of ground clearance and 4.9 metres of minimum turning radius.
