NEW DELHI: The country's largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki India (MSI) on Friday said it has reduced the price of its performance hatchback Baleno RS by Rs 1 lakh.

Earlier this week, the company had reduced prices of select models by Rs 5,000 (on ex-showroom prices).

These included all variants of Alto 800, Alto K10, Swift Diesel, Celerio, Baleno Diesel, Ignis, Dzire Diesel, Tour S Diesel, Vitara Brezza and S-Cross, MSI said in a statement.

These models are priced in the range of Rs 2.93 lakh and Rs 11.49 lakh. In a regulatory filing, MSI said that along with the above reduction, it has also reduced the ex-showroom price of Baleno RS by Rs 1 lakh.

The model now starts at a price of Rs 7,88,913 (ex-showroom Delhi). MSI had positioned the Baleno RS as a 'high-performance' hatchback powered by a 1.0-litre booster jet petrol engine, which delivers 20 per cent more power than a naturally aspirated 1.2-litre petrol engine.
