The Baleno facelift and the Fronx now sit at overlapping price points, with the Baleno starting at Rs 5.99 lakh and the Fronx at Rs 6.85 lakh, both ex-showroom. That overlap matters for buyers cross-shopping Maruti’s own lineup, since the two share the same HEARTECT platform underneath but differ meaningfully in body style, engine options and top-end pricing — the Fronx tops out at Rs 11.98 lakh against the Baleno’s Rs 9.99 lakh (ex-showroom) ceiling. Anyone comparing these two needs to decide between hatchback practicality and crossover styling before pricing even enters the equation.
