Baleno

Baleno

Before i start my review Let me tell you that Baleno is a revelation in the Indian auto industry. It has got impeccable styling, marvellous looks, very smooth ride and handling. Design - Exterior - The liquid like design flows from bumper to bumper and looks so classy. The lower part of bumper has some wonderful cuttings and edges that just dds to the charisma of the car. The front chrome grill is very eye catching and the black curly plastic just above it holds your attention. The best view to see Baleno is from sideways, full marks to the makers to make it look so appealing from the side on. The slanting line from front to back window from side is designed very well. The rear tale lamp however is very average and could have been better. Having said that the design from rear is also very attractive and gives you a wow feeling when you have its first sight. The long door handles are very well crafted and good looking too. The rear spoiler is a masterstroke and looks class apart. The wheel covers are nice and matches to the overall design of the car. However Maruti could have done better when it comes to the front of the car. It is still good but still there was scope of improvement. I have special mention of the premium silver colour that i have bought and it just looks completely fabulous. Its not the same old orthodox silver colour but very different and looks amazing. I might be over generous here but silver of Baleno is comparable to other silvers of Audis and the BMW's. Interior - The interior of car is as magnificent as the exterior. Forget about the boring baize colour dashboard and interiors, it has the full black design which looks quite elegant. The plastic used is of very good quality and the very thin chrome garnish on the borders looks extraordinary. The CD player is very good and matches to the interior dashboard. The AC vents and its electronic display, speedometer and digital gauge are simply outstanding and give a feel of sitting in premium car.
