The Maruti Suzuki Fronx, which debuted in April 2023, has quickly gained traction in the market. This popular compact SUV is offered in five trims – Sigma, Delta, Delta+, Zeta, and Alpha – ranging from Rs 7.51 lakh to Rs 13.03 lakh (ex-showroom).
Currently, the Fronx, which is made in India and also exported to Japan, comes equipped with ADAS technology. The upcoming facelift is expected to enhance the compact SUV with this advanced safety feature, further boosting its appeal.
The upcoming Maruti Suzuki Fronx facelift will feature a new strong hybrid powertrain designed to enhance fuel efficiency. This setup will include a 1.2-liter, 3-cylinder petrol engine from the Swift hatchback, paired with a battery pack ranging from 1.5 kWh to 2 kWh and an electric motor. The hybrid system will operate as a series hybrid, optimizing efficiency for both city driving and highways.
The Maruti Suzuki Fronx is set to receive several updates with its upcoming mid-life refresh. Alongside potential design tweaks, the compact SUV will see enhanced features. Currently, the Fronx offers two engine options: a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated petrol engine producing 90 bhp and a 1.0-liter Boosterjet turbo petrol engine delivering 100 bhp. Buyers can choose from a 5-speed manual, a 5-speed torque converter automatic, or a 5-speed AMT transmission. These updates are expected to further boost the Fronx’s appeal in the competitive compact SUV market.
