Maruti Suzuki has released the complete variant-wise price list for the 2026 Baleno following its recent market launch. The facelifted premium hatchback is priced between Rs. 5.99 lakh and Rs. 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The range comprises five trim levels – Sigma, Delta, Zeta, Alpha and Alpha (O) and three powertrain combinations have been offered.
They are a 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol with a manual gearbox, the same petrol engine with an AMT and a 1.2-litre three-cylinder CNG version with a manual transmission. The new Baleno gets a new grille section with triple horizontal slats, repositioned Suzuki logo, revised front and rear bumpers, new fog lamps and a new shark fin antenna.
However, its dimensions, alloy wheels, side bodywork, etc have been retained. The interior, on the other hand, gets more substantial updates including the segment-first Level 2 ADAS tech enabling adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, emergency braking and more. Alongside, Maruti Suzuki has also added ventilated seats, wireless charger with active cooling and TPMS.

The new Z12E three-pot engine makes 82 hp and 112 Nm and is more fuel-efficient than the outgoing K-series unit. The petrol manual version has been made available in an expansive range starting with the Sigma at Rs. 5.99 lakh (ex-showroom). The Delta costs Rs. 7 lakh resulting in a Rs. 1.01 lakh jump over the entry trim. The Zeta sits another Rs. 1 lakh above at Rs. 8 lakh and the Alpha costs Rs. 9.10 lakh. The new Alpha (O) tops the manual range at Rs. 9.50 lakh.
Maruti Suzuki offers the AMT from the Delta trim onwards. The Delta AMT costs Rs. 7.50 lakh (ex-showroom) – exactly Rs. 50,000 more than its manual counterpart. The same Rs. 50,000 difference applies to the Zeta which costs Rs. 8 lakh with the manual gearbox and Rs. 8.50 lakh with the AMT. The Alpha AMT carries a price of Rs. 9.60 lakh.
The Alpha (O) AMT occupies the top of the entire Baleno range at Rs. 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom). Its Rs. 49,000 premium over the Alpha (O) manual is almost identical to the difference seen across the other automatic variants. The automatic range has been restricted to Delta, Zeta, Alpha and Alpha (O). The factory CNG range is considerably smaller and consists only of the Delta and Zeta variants.
The Delta CNG costs Rs. 7.92 lakh (ex-showroom) placing it Rs. 92,000 above the corresponding petrol manual. The Zeta CNG is priced at Rs. 8.92 lakh which carries the same Rs. 92,000 difference over the Zeta petrol manual. Maruti Suzuki has instead concentrated the CNG option around the middle of the Baleno lineup with the two CNG variants separated by Rs. 1 lakh.
The petrol range offers significantly more choice stretching across all five trims with manual transmissions and four trims with AMT. The Delta becomes the first trim to offer all three powertrain combinations, and the Zeta mirrors the same petrol manual, AMT and CNG selection one step above it. The Alpha and Alpha (O) sit at the upper end with petrol manual and AMT options only.
