2.48 -> If you think Maruti Suzuki and toyota a making
a play a game a spot the differences with
7.62 -> the Glanza that you may be right or you may,
not We bring you five things you need to know
14 -> About the Toyota Glanza.
16.91 -> So for a lot of viewers there, that's a very
familiar shape but how did tell you Glanza
21.57 -> from a Baleno well apart from the obvious
Toyota logo on the front this grill is new
26.749 -> with these two large croom slats and on the
bottled.
29.89 -> There's a Glanza that badge A Toyota badge
and a V or G. badge for the variants apart
34.75 -> from that the car looks identical to the Baleno
right down to the alloy design as well.
41.82 -> So on the inside, there's a nice big Toyota
badge on the steering wheel and when you switch
45.93 -> the car on you get it Toyota welcome screen
as well on the infotainment system so the
50.78 -> Glanza that comes in two variants the V and
G the V correspond to with the alphabet variants.
56.19 -> Of the Maruti Banelo and it matches that feature
to feature and we have with us today in the
60.89 -> G variants to the Glanza and that corresponds
with the Zeta variants of the Maruti Baleno
65.5 -> feature to feature and the reason we have
G variants is because it's only the G variants
69.47 -> with a manual transmission that gets the new
smart hybrid equipped 1.2 liters dual jet
75.39 -> VVT engine.
77.86 -> So when it comes to the fit and finish of
all the materials the plastics the gaps in
82.22 -> the panels the buttons the feels everything
is exactly the same as what will get in the
87.22 -> Maruti Suzuki Baleno.
89.99 -> So When it comes to the Toyota is lineup it's
a case step up and luxury over cars like the
93.77 -> liva and the Etios but not quite up to the
levels that you'd expect from say and altos
99.31 -> or even the yaris for that matter.
101.97 -> Stepping into the rear we come to what is
always be one of the Baleno and now the Glanza
105.71 -> strong points and that is and legroom in the
Rear and I'm five ten and I can laterly stretch
110.42 -> my legs out and I still have room here headroom
will fairly adequate as well and there's just
115.49 -> now room here just recently in a pinch but
there are some features we'd like to have
119.74 -> seen added to the Glanza up like a drop down
armrest and AC wents right and these are features
125.61 -> that are missing in the Baleno as well.
128.34 -> So what do you get that?
130.14 -> The list of features identical to the list
on the Baleno Zeta variant includes touch
134.909 -> screen infotainment with android auto and
Apple CarPlay smartphone-based navigation.
140.42 -> Six speaker sound set up.
142.86 -> Climate controlled auto folding ORVM push-button
start keyless entry and sixteen-inch alloys
150.3 -> when compared to the V. variant the G. misses
out on a few features so there's no leather-wrapped
155.069 -> steering no vanity mirror and the lamp on
the driver's side no reverse parking camera
161.14 -> no auto headlamps no UV protect courting on
the windows.
165.84 -> And you don't get the DRLs but you do get
similar position laps and there's also no
170.44 -> follow me home headlamps.
174.54 -> And two that's a new engine it's a variant
into the K series engine and a ninety horsepower
180.109 -> and its make seven more horsepower then the
variants they came before it also makes the
184.12 -> same torque a hundred and thirty Newton meters
but two hundred RPM higher than before this
190.29 -> is pad
191.02 -> with an integrated starter generator with
a lithium-ion battery or what Maruti called
195.319 -> the smart hybrid system it's the same mild
hybrid system we have experiences in other
199.849 -> Maruti cars like the S Cross and the Ciaz
and in the Glanza this is G. Variants in the
204.98 -> manual transmission is the only car that gets it,
what's more, it's priced very attractively
211.4 -> but we will get into that later before that
let's take a spin in it.
218.28 -> So we're on the move now and that's BS six
tune engines it is nice and a fine so it's
223.359 -> quiet in the cabin and there's no vibration
creeping in as well power delivering is also
227.959 -> nice and linear and there's a nice infographic
on the driver's information display that tells
233.159 -> you when the electric motors kicking in.
235.68 -> It's a very mild assistance though and mostly
kicks in on in lower situations say like climbing
242.03 -> up a slight slope or climbing up a flyover
and it recharges when you get off the pattle.
249.98 -> That is Engine is quite responsive to but
it's not really exciting to drive and that's
255.079 -> down with this the gearbox it's got very widely
spaced toll ratios and that means there's
261.41 -> not that much driving you get on the gas pedal
so you need to stay in low gears say second
266.69 -> in the city and third and fourth of the highway
for overtakes.
272.7 -> But the flip side of that tall gearing.
275.18 -> Which combines with the mild hybrid system
and the BS six tuning is incredible mileage
280.94 -> and in our tests, we managed 24 kilometers
per liter on the highway and 17 kilometers
285.76 -> per liters in the city yes it's petrol but
she don't tell it I don't think it knows that
290.82 -> yet.
293.78 -> So the Galnza really in the city slicker the
steering is nice and light as is the clutch
298.42 -> and the gears slot in quite nicely if you
don't rush them too much but where it really
303.56 -> excels is in its right quality.
307.13 -> So it comes to handling bad roads both the
movement in the cabin and the noise from the
312.54 -> suspension is nicely controlled.
317.56 -> When you start to push the pace and the Glanza
it's not quite so exciting.
321.5 -> Body rolls start to creep into the equation
and when you're braking hard and if you're
325.591 -> not in a straight line the tail starts to
feels just a little like it's just a feeling
330.47 -> though but it doesn't quite inspire the enthusiast
drive within a sedate manner though And you
336.72 -> have no complaints at all.
342.56 -> So number four that's answer a few FAQ's Is
the quality any different well no both the
350.44 -> Toyota Glanza and the Maruti Suzuki Baleno
all are exactly the same.
356.5 -> Can I get my Toyota Glanza so its the Maruti
suzuki service center well unfortunately not
363.18 -> no your Toyota Glanza has to be serviced only
in a Toyota service and a Maruti Suzuki Baleno
369.21 -> can only be serviced in Maruti Suzuki service centers
375.04 -> And lastly will I get the same warranty I
would as with the Maruti Suzuki Baleno well
380.64 -> that one's a little different so that Toyota
Glanza here you get at three years one lakh
386.33 -> kilometer warranty out of the box whereas
the Maruti only cover you for two years and
391.21 -> forty thousand kilometers so that's quite
a big difference there.
395.11 -> both companies though will allow you to extend
that out to five years but Maruti will only
400.48 -> cover one lakh kilometers after that whereas
Toyota will still cover you for 2.2 lakh kilometers
407.13 -> on the clocks.
408.21 -> And so now on to the price and this G. Variants
manual is priced at rupees 7.22 Lakh and in
414.11 -> contrast to the rest of the varinats which
are priced on power with similar Maruti Suzuki
418.461 -> variants it's actually cheaper by a whole
sixty-five thousand rupees but this is an
423.53 -> introductory price and
424.82 -> so we expected revision fairly soon in addition
to competing with its strim the Toyota Glanza
430.61 -> competes with the Hyundai I20 honda jazz Volkswagens
polo and the upcoming Tata altroz
441.18 -> So the Glanza finally adds a premium hatched
to Toyota line up it's nicely loaded to features
446.87 -> and the space on offer makes it a proper family
car yes there are no diesel on offer but the
452.45 -> petrol I'm impressively efficient does all
this mean they're basically you're
456.83 -> buying the same car the badge on the boot
doesn't matter well not quite so Maruti badge
461.8 -> does have the strongest service network out
there and the Baleno comes under the nexa
465.84 -> banner and as we know from experience that's
a very good thing Toyota on the other hand
470.62 -> I'm no slouches when it comes to service either
there's also the benefit of that longer warranty
475.62 -> period.
476.75 -> So they both have strong value propositions
for either brand but if your budget lands
481.89 -> you on this the G variants and with a manual
transmission then the Toyota Glanza which
488 -> is cheaper by sixty-five thousand to the corresponding
Maruti baleno is clearly the smarter choice.
