This is a very classic and

I have a baleno 2021 alpha model petrol version.As far as the comfort and the luxury is concerned the seats are so comfortable and the drive is so smooth.Air conditioning, The interiors, And the service of nexa always remains top notch.But like the coin has both sides the negative part of this is the safety and fragile body.Even a small crash can cause a huge damage.Has to be driven with utmost care or else we end up spending our bucks getting the body repaired.The mileage seems to be good.

1. Most unsafe of all cars

2.3

Most unsafe of all cars i have driven so far.I bought it without much review, Just by seeing the artistic and aerodynamic shape and repenting every moment now for the lastly driven car.I planned to write this review after driving the car for two years.This review is for all the future customers of maruti-suzuki.Don't make a mistake like me.Some of issues are listed below.A) overall low roof.B) low entry space for the driver.You will have have to bend like an acrobat to enter the car to sit for the steering.Else you will have to move the whole seat back and forth every time to set your driving position.C) there is no suitable place for fitting the rear view mirror.It is arbitrarily fixed just in front and at eye-level of the driver.The driver will look into it for observing the moving objects in the back and not for shaving.There should be a finite angle of elevation from the eye-level as it is there in all other maruti cars.This randomly positioned mirror dangerously blocks the front left view of the driver while taking a left turn.It may cause fatal accident any time.D) there is flat space for smaller objects like mobile or key in front of steering wheel.The whole plastic is oval.There is only a very small box in front of the front passenger to keep your important documents like blue book, Insurance copy, Pollution card etc.It's tiny compared to the size of the car.E) there is no pocket at the back of the factory-fitted linen-covers, Of the front passenger.It is there only at the back of the driver's seat.These pockets are used by the passengers at the back seat and they find it inconvenient.F) the seat at the back is too thin.It's nonstandard and your knee will always be there without a support at the bottom.The width is less than 18".I think it's 14-16".As a result family members traveling together cannot sit comfortably lifting their legs which you can easily do in arena-promoted swift model.G) the handles for use by the rear passengers are not in the right place.There's a tiny hook in the same frame of the handle which proved almost fatal for the rear passenger sitting next to the door.In two occasions, Two different passengers sitting in the back seat jumped up to hit the hook by their forehead and ear-side while the car was moving on a bumpy road.The injury were severe and we had to go to doctor who recommended for a scan.I complained on the net and received a call from a local service center.I visited the service center to get my car inspected.The hopeless comment was "it is there in all baleno model in garage now." there is no system of advising the owner, Any solution for the genuine safety issue.So i am suffering from the punishment of my own s****d decision and will do so for 2 more years when i will change my car.After driving 5 different models of maruti-suzuki, In the past, I am going to try the cars from the competition.And do not forget my suggestion, Never use maruti-suzuki baleno model, If not the whole brand.
