Images of the 2022 Suzuki Baleno have emerged online, showing the car’s updated design ahead of its expected unveiling next year.

While the original source of the leak is unknown, a number of Indian media outlets have published photos of the facelifted Baleno, which appear to have been taken at a Suzuki production facility.

The new model has dropped the upright headlights and adopted a sleeker look, with the front end somewhat reminiscent of the Japanese-market Toyota Mark X.

A set of LED daytime-running lights are built into the L-shaped headlights, while LED tail-lamps feature at the rear.

Recent spy photos show the interior will also get a refresh, with its steering wheel borrowed from the Swift, revised climate controls, and a larger floating tablet-style infotainment screen – with sources telling Autocar the new model will also offer wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

There’s no word yet on when Australian showrooms will start seeing the facelifted 2022 Suzuki Baleno, but with the car’s official reveal slated for early next year, it’s likely the model will arrive in the first half of 2022.
