Baleno CNG 2025 Review Real City Mileage, Highway Range & Honest Experience

Baleno CNG 2025 – Full Quick Summary Table

Category	Real Highlights & Honest Feel
Engine & Fuel	It runs on that same 1.2L DualJet engine, now sipping CNG too. Starts smooth, runs cleaner. No vibration drama. You hardly feel it switched fuel. Perfect for calm city folks.
Power & Torque	77.5 PS and 98.5 Nm in CNG mode. Feels lighter, yes, but not lazy. Baleno CNG moves steady, doesn’t rush, doesn’t protest either. It’s gentle power, just right for daily life.
Transmission	Only 5-speed manual. But honestly, you don’t miss anything. Gearbox is slick, clutch is soft like butter. You can drive it all day without that left leg crying for rest.
City Drive Feel	Easy. Effortless. Feels like it was built for crowded lanes. Up to 60 km/h, it’s just gliding. No jerks, no delay. Great pickup for a CNG car, and you’ll smile at the savings.
Highway Behaviour	Once on open roads, it feels settled. Around 90–100 km/h, it stays smooth and confident. But when you try to overtake in a hurry, it takes a breath before leaping. Balanced ride though, no wobble.
Mileage & Range	Roughly 30.6 km/kg. One tank runs around 180–200 km easily. You’ll refuel less and travel more. It’s one of those rare cars where the meter feels friendly.
Design & Exterior	Looks same as the petrol Baleno, and that’s actually nice. Chrome grille, LED lamps, that neat curve on the bonnet — it still looks sharp. No silly green CNG stickers, no attention-grabbing tags. Clean and classy.
Interior Quality	Step inside and it feels cozy, not cheap. Dual-tone dashboard gives that premium touch. You sit high, visibility’s good. Only the boot feels tighter now, thanks to the CNG cylinder sitting behind.
Infotainment & Features	7-inch touchscreen, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay. All work fine, no lag. Steering controls feel nice in hand. Auto climate control adds a hint of luxury in this calm, sensible cabin.
Ride & Comfort	Suspension tuned soft, eats potholes nicely. You glide over broken roads and don’t even frown. Seats are wide, supportive. Long drives? No problem, just keep the window down and let it breathe.
Safety	Dual airbags, ABS, EBD, ESP – all standard in top trim. Hill Hold helps on slopes. And because it’s factory CNG, you don’t worry about leaks or loose fittings. Feels safe enough for small family drives.
Technology	Voice assist, SmartPlay Pro infotainment, rear parking sensors – all there. Nothing flashy, but it works clean. It’s that kind of tech you use, not just show off.
Variants	Delta and Zeta only. Maruti kept it simple. You don’t have to flip brochures to decide – pick your comfort, pay and drive.
Price (Ex-showroom)	₹8.50 – ₹9.80 lakh. Not the cheapest, but the peace of mind feels worth it. Available in all NEXA showrooms, and the service network — you already know, unbeatable.
Rivals	Fights with Tata Tiago CNG and Hyundai Nios CNG. Tiago feels stronger, Nios smoother. But Baleno? It’s quieter, roomier, more polished. You sit inside and you just feel it.
Pros	Superb mileage. Refined city drive. Comfy cabin. Easy to own. It’s like having a reliable friend who never complains about traffic or bills.
Cons	No automatic yet, which hurts a bit. Boot space gone down, and power on highways could be better. But honestly, not deal breakers for its purpose.
Verdict	The Baleno CNG 2025 is for those who just want peace on roads. It doesn’t rush you, it relaxes you. Premium feel, calm engine, honest savings — it’s not a show-off car, it’s a smart one. And sometimes, that’s exactly what we need.

 

You don’t realize how easy the Baleno CNG makes driving until you get stuck in slow traffic. It just crawls ahead smoothly, like it knows the rhythm of the road. You don’t have to fight the clutch or guess the gear. It’s that calm, predictable behavior that makes city drives feel lighter, even on bad days.
