The car also has automatic climate control and a rear defogger. Fuel-efficient petrol and CNG engines on offer You can get the automatic transmission at an affordable price. Segment first features on offer such as 360 camera and head-up display The suspension is well-tuned to offer a comfortable ride Maruti’s widespread sales and service network	Loaded with a plethora of amenities such as dual-zone climate control, touchscreen infotainment, steering-mounted controls, automatic headlamps and wipers, and more The SUV comes with a range of engine options including petrol, diesel, and turbo-petrol variants. It offers comfortable seating and a spacious cabin with practical storage solutions The XUV300 delivers excellent handling and responsive steering for enhanced maneuverability Equipped with advanced safety features like six airbags, all-4 disc brakes, and more, earning a prestigious 5-Star GNCAP safety rating It boasts refined and economical engines, whether it's the diesel or petrol model It offers ample cabin space for up to five adults	Solid built quality - the safest premium hatchback in India. Only hatchback in the segment with a diesel engine Offers adequate boot space: 345 litres in petrol and diesel variants, and 210 litres in the CNG variant. Includes several segment first features. The 90-degree door opening allows easy ingress and egress. Offered with three powertrains, each tailored for different customer needs. Three gearboxes available with petrol engine. The extended thigh support provides good comfort for both front and rear seats
Cons	The Baleno lacks turbo petrol and diesel engine choices The automatic transmission exhibits a noticeable lag. It lacks the smoothness seen in rival offerings with CVT or DCT. It doesn't deliver an enjoyable driving experience, as the engine is tuned more for efficiency Several features are absent which can be seen in competitors. They include an air purifier, rear armrest, sunroof, and TPMS. The higher variants of the Baleno are pricey. The features provided do not seem to justify the cost.	It has one of the smallest boot spaces in its segment The fancier features are mostly found in the highest-spec models The turbo-petrol versions cost more and only come with a manual transmission Inside, the SUV has lots of features, but the design might seem a bit old-fashioned The petrol and turbo-petrol engines aren't as fuel-efficient as some other cars in the class It doesn't have rear AC vents, unlike some of its rivals The rear legroom is not as great as some of its rivals	No automatic gearbox with diesel engine. Diesel engine limited to three variants only. Touch-based controls for the air conditioner may take time to become second nature. Light colour interiors tend to get dirty more easily. The thick-A pillar takes up a lot of space. Tata's questionable after-sales support and service.
