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 somewhat feels like a bigger version of the Baleno specially from sides The turbo petrol engine choices is only available for the higher variants. This makes them slightly more expensive. The quality of interior plastics doesn't quite match up to that of its competitors It provides the smallest boot space in its segment, measuring at 308 liters The rear seat may not be overly comfortable for taller passengers It lacks certain features such as TPMS, rear armrest, auto wipers, and more The 1.0-litre turbo engine is quick.
