Here is an accident involving Maruti Baleno where you can see the hatchback crashed on the roof of a house. How did that happen?
Driving on mountain roads are very dangerous and require a certain amount of driving experience. You cannot just learn today and leave for the mountains in a week. There are downwards and upward slopes, then blind turns and wide turns which require a lot of skills as a driver. Despite being highly experienced, you see many accidents reported often.
Here is one such accident that has happened by an in experienced driver. As you can see, the Maruti Baleno has crashed onto a roof of an house. Leaving all things aside, how did it get there? Actually, the car is of a resident of Himachal Pradesh who had a learner’s driving license and had just started off with his driving experience.

So turns out, the driver, who is a retired army man, was driving at a high speed on the mountain roads. While taking a turn, he suddenly lost his control and crashed onto a barrier. The impact was such that the car broke the barrier and then flew across to a house just surrounding the road.
The distance between the road and the house was approximately 20 feet which seems easy for a lightweight car. The damage to the car was not that high and three passengers inside the Maruti Baleno walked safely without any injuries. As you can see, the house has also not been damaged much otherwise, the roof could have collapsed.
To bring the car back on the road, the locals used girders and tiles as a bridge between the road and the roof. Then they rolled the car back slowly succesfully. This bridge scenario would have been very difficult because the car could have literally plunged into the valley. From there, the car would be completely damaged beyond repair.

The latter produces 90 PS, which is around 7 PS more than the non-hybrid engine. Baleno is one of the most popular cars in India and the best selling hatchback in its class.
