2022 Suzuki Baleno 1.5L Manual - Night POV - Lights, Features and Drive!

  • When it comes to value provided vs asking price ratio, the Suzuki Baleno (In top-spec GLX guise) surely ranks up there with China's recently introduced vehicles taking the world by storm. It has a host of features and offers a comfortable ride for a hatch in a budget segment. It does not deviate from what it's here for: a budget vehicle for everyday use.
    I used this almost every day when I had it on test and felt like I am using it for it's intended purpose. After over 680km of extra urban driving, I only averaged 5.3L/100 and it can go for more than 480km on one tank (Which is only 37L in capacity)
    When considering the price tag of R282 000, this is a hard-to-pass-by vehicle. It really ticks a lot of boxes for the tough economic conditions we are currently facing.
    It comes standard with a 4-year / 60 000 km Service Plan at 15 000 km intervals and a 5-year / 200 000 km warranty.

    Nice one Sebuwa.
    I reckon this vehicle is creating serious inroads👌🏽 i see a lot of them on the road and interesting all top spec GL so people do want some creature comforts.
    The Heads Up Display is a little of distraction though 😮
    The lights are great and the vehicle seems rather punchy🫠🙂
    The cameras around are good at night to watch your surroundings lol😅I mean anything can happen in gauteng/PTA😢🤞🏾😂
    I love the music I believe it sounds similar to “budah music” you get on UA-cam either way very nice tracks for cruising and relaxing 😌

      Ozem,🙂. Thank you so much for the valuable input as usual. Well they threw what you need and put on some of the nice-to-haves to balance against the competition. This is a great car for it's price bracket, not a big fan of it's performance especially from standstill but once its rolling I am okay with it. You need all the necessary assistance to see your surroudings in Gauteng🤣🤣🤣

    I have the Baleno GL for over 3 months now and guys, it’s a good car, especially if you consider the price. Would be nice if the car was not so noisy at 100 km/h but since I usually drive in the city it’s not a massive issue.

    • @sebuwam

      The engine does tend to scream shame and my biggest "quarrel" with it is the short first gear ratio and makes pick ups in town a little hard to pull if you want to go quicker, otherwise, can't complain much about it👌🏾
