Until now, top of the line Baleno Delta was only trim to come with automatic transmission

Maruti Suzuki Baleno has garnered quite an interest among customers since it has been launched in October, last year. Now to add on the appeal Maruti Suzuki has introduced an automatic gearbox to the Baleno Zeta trim at a price of Rs. 747701 (ex showroom, Delhi). Until now, Baleno automatic was offered only in the Delta trim with petrol engine. But in that case customers had to compromise with the features, as the automatic variant use to come with lesser features. Now with the inclusion of the automatic gearbox to the upper end Zeta trim customers won’t have to compromise on the features. Moreover the Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) will also save the customers from the hassle of constantly pressing clutch pedal and gear changing in congested city traffic.

Made in India only, this car is being exported to more than 100 countries across the world.
