Driver Insights
Based on feedback from Sri Lankan owners, the Baleno is seen as a practical upgrade from entry-level hatchbacks. It offers better cabin space and daily comfort without significantly increasing running costs.
Despite a few drawbacks, the Proton Wira is a reasonably good car. Although an older generation vehicle, the entire family can travel without issue.
