Suzuki's facelifted Baleno touches down in SA

The range: GL or GLX

Also mirroring the previous Baleno is the line-up, which offers a choice between GL and GLX specification grades.

GL packs all the comfort and safety basics like aircon, electric windows, audio system with Bluetooth connectivity, multi-function steering wheel, keyless entry, height-adjustable driver’s seat, dual front airbags and ABS brakes.

The GLX sweetens the deal with automatic climate control, cruise control, rear park distance control, push-button start, a front armrest as well as side and curtain airbags and rear disc brakes. The range-topper is also available with Suzuki’s new ‘SLDA’ 17.8cm touchscreen infotainment system with reverse camera as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity.

What they cost

Prices start at R209 900, which is the same as before, and it’s interesting to note that the Baleno’s prices have only increased by R10 000 since the model was originally launched nearly three years ago, in November 2016. In GL form it is currently the most affordable modern B-segment hatchback, bearing in mind that the older-generation VW Polo Vivo does undercut it.

All Balenos are sold with a four-year/60 000km service plan and five-year/200 000km promotional warranty.

Pricing! Facelifted Suzuki Baleno touches down in South Africa

The facelifted Suzuki Baleno has arrived in South Africa sporting a fresh exterior look and an upgraded interior.

Revealed in January 2019 in India, the updated Baleno gains an exterior redesign as well as new two-tone upholstery inside (and fresh door trim, too). A brushed aluminium finish on sections of the facia (as well as the air conditioning vents, steering wheel and instrument cluster) is also new.

Six exterior paint colours are offered, including a new “Magma Grey” metallic hue.

As before, the local range comprises three variants, all powered by Suzuki’s naturally aspirated 1,4-litre petrol engine. It sends 68 kW and 130 N.m to the front axle via a five-speed manual gearbox (or an optional four-speed automatic in the case of the GLX model).

Interestingly, pricing has now changed over the pre-facelift range, with the 1,4 GL coming in at R209 900, the 1,4 GLX at R244 900 and the 1,4 GLX automatic at R259 900.

Freshened up Suzuki Baleno now available in SA

The GLX models are priced at R244 900 (manual) and R259 900 (auto).

Venture inside and you'll notice the seats feature a new two-tone colour treatment, and door trim. There are smatterings of brushed aluminium inserts across the dashboard, air-conditioning vents, steering wheel and instrument cluster.

The lower-priced GL model, priced from R209 900, now adds keyless access, 12-volt sockets in the front and rear, a height-adjustable driver seat and a light in the boot. Nifty.

All models feature a five-year or 200 000km warranty and a four-year or 60 000km service plan.

Wondering when will the Toyota Glanza ( Suzuki Baleno ) be touching down on our shores , if ever ?
 
Road trip test: Suzuki's Baleno goes the distance

Our route included a drive to spend a night with friends who live in Underberg on the twisty and – surprise, surprise – well-potholed R617. Fully loaded, the Baleno felt planted throughout and the brakes did a sterling job slowing the vehicle down before having to swerve for said potholes.

Driving to Leisure Bay was through Kokstad in heavy rain and although not a deal breaker, a nice-to-have would have been rain sensing wipers.

The aircon demist only has an option to blow on the windscreen and the footwell for a reason that I fail to understand which, when you’re driving in shorts, can become a bit uncomfortable.

They’re minor things though and doesn’t distract at all from the overall driving experience and, having driven just over 2000km, the return of 5.5L/100km with the air conditioning mostly on quickly makes you forget that.

The dark privacy glass proved to be a hit, especially with the two boys, who commented that they didn’t have to angle the phone from the sun’s glare and you know how much that means to any millennial.

When we pulled into the driveway, it was mission accomplished.

The Suzuki Baleno had taken four people on holiday effortlessly, kept us cool, swallowed all our luggage and proved that, with a little planning, you don’t have to fork out a pile of money to have a good time.

An Alfa lover’s Baleno affair

But what I liked most about it is its bubble-like streamlined shape and the fact that it drives as if one is in a bubble, moving through an airless environment, with hardly any suspension knock. I loved this car - it is certainly a worthy choice for us more elderly types. The 5-speed gearbox is a mere flip to use and the gear changes are fluid.

When the car I presently have goes and, given any further years added to my driving lifespan, the Baleno will be top of my list as a car to buy.

Suzuki Baleno long-termer survives lockdown with grumpy journo

So that's basically how lockdown has been going for Suzuki Baleno, I've been doing three weeks to the litre compared to my usual just over 5L/100km and my steering wheel has never been cleaner what with hand sanitiser constantly being sprayed on the odd occasion I get to roll some rubber.

I do hope though that things change soon and I get a chance to be stuck in a traffic jam on the way to buying cigarettes, booze, car parts or whatever the heart desires. If not, I fear not only for all Suzuki owners but all people teetering on the brink of sanity.

Suzuki SA upgrades Baleno safety spec ahead of Toyota Starlet launch

Suzuki Auto South Africa has handed its Baleno additional safety features ahead of the local launch of the Toyota Starlet.

The Starlet, of course, will soon launch in South Africa, arriving as a rebadged Suzuki Baleno, imported from India where it’s built by Maruti Suzuki and known as the Glanza.

Now, Suzuki Auto SA says it has given its hatchback a “value-boost” by adding an electronic stability programme as standard across the range. This system, the firm says, combines stability control and traction control into “one seamless safety system that prevents the vehicle from losing traction”.

Other standard safety features include ABS (with BAS and EBD) and IsoFix child-seat anchors. The entry-level GL variant features two airbags while the GLX models upgrade to six.

Suzuki Baleno now fitted with missing part

The Suzuki Baleno is a value-packed vehicle offering big-car feel for less money than a Polo. However, it was always missing one thing - stability control.

The Baleno was recently facelifted towards the end of 2019, introducing a new infotainment system complete with Apple Carplay and Android Auto. The Baleno also acquired some new styling additions in the form of LED lights a new front bumper design and a revised grille.

For this latest update, ESP is added across the range as standard fitment. You get traction control and stability control included in this system which bolsters the Baleno’s safety equipment levels. Previously, not having ESP seemed to be a major downside to the Baleno’s high-value offering and often stopped it from being included in the Cars.co.za Consumer Awards - powered by WesBank. The awards system places a high value on safety especially in a segment where families are often transported.

The entry-level GL Baleno comes fitted with 2 airbags, ABS, EBD and brake assist as well as the new ESP suite. The GLX builds on this with a total of 6 airbags.
