The SUZUKI BALENO (2016-19) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.2 DUALJET 90 EU6 SZ3 is a practical, five-door small hatchback, sitting between a city car and a family supermini in the UK used-car market. Its uncomplicated shape prioritises interior space, making it a sensible alternative to familiar rivals such as the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Corsa. The 1.2-litre petrol engine is aimed at straightforward, economical everyday motoring, while the Baleno’s roomy cabin and rear doors make school runs, commuting and weekend trips easier. It suits first-time buyers, couples and small families who want useful space without moving up to a larger, costlier car. The SZ3 trim keeps the focus practical. mycarcheck.com has recorded 1,167 checks across 262 distinct VINs, a useful sample; the average recorded mileage is 30,000, with around 6,000 miles driven yearly and about 1.45 previous keepers.
