COLOUR AND UPHOLSTERY
Suzuki Baleno
Suzuki’s Baleno is pitched as the grown-up hatch for buyers who feel the Swift is a bit too junior but can’t justify Polo or Starlet money. You get a single 1.5-litre petrol engine, which keeps things refreshingly straightforward—no turbo, no fuss, just honest, everyday motoring. You can have it with a manual, auto, or that awkward semi-auto if you must. Scroll through classifieds and you’ll find 69 active listings, from R167,900 to R341,900, and the median sits at R289,900. Here’s the reveal: 43 of those cars are brand new, so Suzuki dealers aren’t just clearing out old stock—they’re betting the Baleno will tempt buyers in a market obsessed with Polo badges. You get nearly Polo-sized space for a chunk less cash, on paper at least. The GLX AT hogs the spotlight, with 22 listings and prices ranging from R299,950 to R341,900. That’s the one most buyers gravitate toward: proper automatic, top-of-the-line trim, all the kit included. A GLX manual drops you into the R239,900 to R319,900 bracket, while the entry-level GL MT kicks off at R219,950. Used Balenos average a paltry 18,297 km—even as far back as 2017—which means pre-owned examples are hardly broken in. South Africans latch onto the Baleno for its unexpectedly generous boot (no more Swift boot-Tetris), and the lower running costs compared to the Polo. Fuel bills and service intervals can’t be ignored when margins are tight, and that’s the point.
