Maruti likely to replace Baleno with a new car soon

Maruti is the India’s largest automaker. The company is working hard on overhauling their product range to feature some really exciting models.

First they launched Suzuki Swift to take on Hyundai Getz in the premium compact car segment. Then they replaced the aging Zen with a decent looking Zen Estilo model.

The company is now likely to replace the Baleno sedan with a brand new model expected to be based on the Suzuki SX4 model.

This new car is likely to be offered in both petrol and diesel variant. This would help the company take on both Ford Fiesta and Hyundai Verna in the Indian market.

Maruti has already launched the Suzuki Swift Diesel which is their only diesel offering at the moment and the first in a long time.

In other news, the company is also rumored to be considering updating the Grand Vitara car with Suzuki Escudo.

Also rumored is updating the Maruti 800 and Maruti Wagon R products with models based on Suzuki Cervo and Suzuki Splash respectively.
