Maruti Suzuki Fronx launched – Why should you buy?

Introduction:

Maruti Suzuki expanded its SUV portfolio in the country with the launching of the all-new Fronx. The manufacturer showcased the compact SUV for the first time at the Auto Expo 2023 alongside the Maruti Jimny. The Fronx sits between the Baleno and Brezza in the Maruti Suzuki family and starts from Rs. 7.46 lakh (ex-showroom) in India. The sub-four-meter SUV can be had in five trim options including Sigma, Delta, Delta+, Zeta, and Alpha, along with two powertrain options.

Read below to know more about why you should be considering buying the recently launched Maruti Fronx.

What’s good about Maruti Suzuki Fronx?

Maruti Suzuki Fronx Dashboard

The car marque has primarily targeted young urban Indian buyers who are seeking the sub-four-meter SUV. Some of the clear strengths of the Fronx are the dominating looks, a ground clearance of 190mm, an SUV-like appearance, and a peppy turbo-petrol engine. Apart from this, it SUV also comes equipped with a wireless charger, fast-charging USB ports, a 360-degree camera, a six-speaker sound system, and a cruise control. Moreover, the cabin comes wrapped in a dual-tone black and wine interior theme with faux leather upholstery.

What’s not so good about the Maruti Suzuki Fronx?

With all the features listed above, the Fronx still misses out on some. Even after spending Rs. 13.13 lakh (ex-showroom) on the top-spec alpha variant, the SUV misses out on a sunroof, a rain-sensing wiper, a tyre pressure monitoring system, and a rear seat armrest in the middle row.

Best variant of the Fronx to buy?

Maruti Suzuki Fronx Infotainment System

The Delta variant is the most value-for-money variant in the Fronx lineup when compared to the other variants. Here, the buyers can opt for the 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine that is only restricted to a five-speed manual gearbox. Apart from that, it also gets features like automatic headlamps, LED DRLs, steering wheel mounted control, automatic climate control, and a touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

Engine and specifications of the Maruti Fronx:
