Maruti Suzuki Fronx: Raising the bar in a new category
The Maruti Suzuki Fronx is one of the most successful cars in the new ‘compact SUV’ segment. It took the SUV less than a year to garner 1 lakh sales. In July 2025, it crossed 1 lakh exports.
On the manufacturing side, Maruti has been keeping the production of the SUV on par with the market demand. The automaker crossed the 1 lakh production milestone in December 2023, less than a year after the launch of the SUV. It took Maruti just 6 more months to roll out the next 1 lakh units. The 3 lakh production mark was crossed in November 2024. By February 2025, Maruti had produced 4 lakh units of the Fronx.
One of the biggest drivers of sales for the Maruti Suzuki Fronx is its expansive feature list. The SUV is packed with features like a 9.0-inch Smart Pro Play+ infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a Head Up Display, wireless charging, and a 360-degree camera. Maruti recently upgraded the Fronx to offer 6 airbags as standard across all variants. Other safety features include Electronic Stability Program (ESC), ABS with EBD, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), a 360-degree camera and more.
The choice of 2 engine options is also one of the big reasons why the Maruti Suzuki Fronx is so popular in its segment. The 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine can produce a maximum power output of 100hp and 147Nm of torque. It can be mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 6-speed torque converter automatic. The 1.2-litre K Series naturally aspirated petrol engine can produce a maximum power output of 90hp and 113Nm peak torque. This engine can also be mated to a 5-speed manual or automatic gearbox.
