Maruti Suzuki Baleno RS - First Drive Review

The Baleno was the winner of Overdrive's affordable hot hatchback test and now there is a new variant - the Baleno RS - that promises to the push the envelop further. We spent a day with the car at the Buddh International Circuit to find out if the promise holds true.

Can that 1liter engine handle the stress of long trips(5000 kms) with 5 passengers and completely filled boot.

Volkswagen Polo GT TSI is much better and much cheaper than this Baleno RS😬 Baleno has chep plastics in cabin and aslo chep metal quality from Maruti Suzuki. I would definitely go with Polo GT TSI.
