Some might think it a little odd that Suzuki seems to be competing with themselves by releasing a second car in the B-segment supermini class. The truth of the matter is that the Swift and Baleno are different enough to ensure they are unlikely to steal sales from each other. While the Swift is a funky little city car, the Baleno is that little bit bigger and more mature. Think of it another way. Volkswagen compete with themselves all the time: it's just they change more than the model badge. A Polo and Fabia may well be in the same class but the latter offers more room while the former has more kerb appeal. With the Baleno's 1.2-litre mild hybrid engine appealing to cost-conscious motorists and the Boosterjet 1.0-litre variant calling out to those that need a more responsive feel, Suzuki may be perfectly placed to appeal to those looking to downsize.
