The Suzuki Baleno for New Zealand will arrive later in the year.

While Nepal will get the Suzuki Baleno by April end, the Baleno for New Zealand will arrive later in the year. Given that India is the only production hub of the Suzuki Baleno, it will be manufactured and exported from Maruti Suzuki's Manesar facility.

In total, the Baleno will be exported to over 100 countries which includes European markets such as France, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark and Spain. In Italy, Suzuki launched a limited edition Suzuki Baleno Web S (online pre-order only) which is priced from 15,900 Euros (INR 11.55 lakhs). The India-made Baleno also went on sale in Japan, with prices ranging from 1.414 million Yen.
