The Baleno scores well for space and practicality, and quality took a huge leap with the second generation. Higher variants have unique features like 360-degree cameras and a heads-up display (HUD), as well as six airbags. The new 90hp petrol engine is refined and satisfactory around town, but has a weak mid range, requiring to be revved out for overtaking. The light clutch and smooth manual make driving easy, though the AMT feels a step backwards from the old CVT. The ride and handling feels weighty and confidence inspiring, and all round it feels like a far more mature premium hatch. Wish it had more engine options though.
