Is the build quality of Baleno really as bad as people say?
The Baleno’s build quality has been a hotly debated topic, with some owners claiming the car is miles ahead of older Maruti cars in terms of quality, while others still complain of the flimsy feel. The talk frequently centers around door weight, panel gaps and how sturdy it is compared to the competition. Lightweight construction is intentional to improve fuel efficiency, argue some, while others see it as a way to save costs. They also bring up safety ratings and actual accident reports. The perception of build quality has a huge effect on resale value and brand loyalty, and that’s a hot topic amongst both potential buyers and current owners.
It's not as bad as some people make it out to be. The Baleno feels solid enough to me, and I’ve owned mine now for over a year. It’s not tank like but it’s a definite improvement over older Marutis.
