Talking about features, the range of standard provisions includes rear combination lamps with LED, body-coloured door handles, ORVMs, and bumpers, etc. Inside, the carmaker has provided the bare minimum one the Maruti Suzuki Balenos base variant - Sigma; it misses any provisions for entertainment, and gets central locking, front power windows, tilt steering, accessory socket, etc. in the name of comfort and convenience.
With that being said, the remaining variants are amply loaded with comfort and convenience features. In addition to the features mentioned above, the remaining variants also get remote keyless entry, rear power windows, electrically foldable ORVMs, automatic AC, and reverse parking sensors. Nonetheless, the multi information speedometer display (with colour TFT) is available only on Zeta and Alpha.
However, there are some highlights reserved only for the top-end variant, Alpha, including DRLs with LED, alloy wheels, navigation system, voice command, Apple CarPlay, and reverse parking camera among others.
Moving on to safety provisions, Maruti Suzuki Baleno gets anti-theft security system, ABS with EBD, dual airbags, and front seat belt pre-tensioners and force limiters as standard safety features across the entire line-up. The list of safety-related equipment exclusive to only the top-end trims (Zeta and Alpha) is rather short and comprises front fog-lamps, auto head-lamps, and auto dimming IRVM.
