It’s no secret that the Toyota Glanza is a rebadged version of the Maruti Suzuki Baleno with a minor nip and tuck. Similarly, the Toyota Urban Cruiser Hyryder and Maruti Suzuki Grand Vitara are also the same cars underneath. While that’s a topic for some other day, in this article, we share the top differences between the Toyota Glanza and Maruti Suzuki Baleno.

Toyota Glanza Vs Maruti Suzuki Baleno — Exterior Differences

Speaking about the exterior changes, the Glanza packs a completely different front fascia when compared to the Baleno, which was not the case in the previous generation models. The Glanza gets a smaller grille along with a sportier lower bumper inspired by the Camry sedan. While the Glanza’s LED headlights share the same shape as the Baleno’s, the Glanza gets a single J-shaped LED DRL while the Baleno features a 3-pot arrow-shaped LED DRL in each headlamp.

Around the side, both the hatchbacks look identical and the only change is the alloy wheel design. It is worth mentioning that the Glanza offers wheel covers even in the base E variant while the Baleno offers basic steel rims in the Sigma variant. Similarly, the Glanza G offers dual-tone alloy wheels over the Baleno Zeta’s single-tone alloy wheels. At the rear, the Glanza offers a slightly different design for the LED tail lights compared to the Baleno.

Toyota Glanza Vs Maruti Suzuki Baleno — Interior And Features

On the inside, the Glanza offers a dual-tone black and beige interior while the Baleno offers a unique black and indigo colour scheme. Similarly, the seat upholstery of the Glanza uses a black and beige colour scheme over the Baleno’s black and indigo colour palette. Thanks to the lighter colour shade, the interior of the Glanza feels more spacious than that of the Baleno. Apart from that, both hatchbacks carry the same feature set, including a 9.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, 360-degree parking camera, a head-up display and 6 airbags.
