Maruti Suzuki Fronx: The newly launched 2025 Maruti Suzuki Fronx has raised the bar in the compact crossover segment as it now comes with six airbags as standard across the range.
This approach places the refreshed Fronx as one of the safest models within its segment, without sacrificing the value equation — which allowed a rich competition for attention in its early days.
Maruti Suzuki Fronx: Safety-First Approach
Maruti Suzuki Fronx 2025 The 2025 Fronx range’s headline addition is the standardisation of six airbags across all variants – front, side and curtain (two types of each) Introduction of this feature rich safety package well before such regulatory requirements come into foray demonstrates Maruti Suzuki’s commitment towards occupant safety without bleeding customers pockets, which is usually the case with such features.
In addition to an increase in the number of airbags, the new Fronx also gets a new body structure using high-tensile steel in vital areas to offer better crash protection.
As always, all variants now come with electronic stability control, hill-hold assist, along with ABS that includes EBD, forming a safety net that stretches beyond what the competition offers, even at higher price points.
Refreshed Design Elements
Maruti Suzuki Fronx 2025 Very effective, if subtle, design changes differentiate the 2025 model from its predecessor and make it better looking.
The front fascia is updated with a new “grille” treatment that incorporates more pronounced chrome detailing that flows smoothly into the slim LED headlights.
The new fog lamp housings also get integrated LED daytime running lights that give the SUV a classier look.
The side profiles are pretty familiar with the crossover’s balanced proportions intact, although the new alloy wheel designs bring a touch of freshness.
A new LED tail lamp signature and redesigned bumper with silver skid plate elements make up the exterior revisions at the rear.
There are seven available exterior colors, two of which are new — Splendid Silver and Magma Grey — which match the vehicle’s urban crossover character.
Interior Enhancements
Step inside, and the Fronx sees a good number of thoughtful upgrades aimed at upgrading material quality and user experience.
The dashboard design will be familiar, albeit with better soft-touch materials applied to touch points.
A bigger 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless smartphone connectivity is standard in the center console.
The instrument cluster has also been refreshed with a more legible design featuring a larger multi-information display offering expanded trip computer functions and safety alerts.
Seat upholstery is more supportive given the level of trim along with higher trims boasting leatherette with contrast stitching options.
Practical enhancements comprise a wireless charging pad, type-C USB ports for front and rear passengers, and improved storage options around the cabin.
Powertrain Continuity
The 2025 Fronx retains its tested powertrain options by Maruti Suzuki. The base variants still use the proven 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol motor making 90 PS and 113 Nm of torque, available with either a 5-speed manual or AMT gearbox.
As before, the more performance-oriented is the 1.0-liter BoosterJet turbo-petrol unit, which is tuned to produce 100 PS and 148 Nm of peak torque paired to a 5-speed unit or a 6-speed auto.
The mill complies with the latest emission norms, while still producing good fuel efficiency figures.
The suspension setup has been lightly retuned to deliver slightly better balance between comfort and handling, responding to feedback from existing owners without fundamentally changing the character of the vehicle.
Technology Integration
The 2025 Fronx modules in connected car tech, with an enhanced set of features in the brand’s Suzuki Connect platform.
More variants now have access to remote engine start, climate control pre-conditioning, and vehicle status monitoring.
The advanced infotainment system comes with the ability for over-the-air updates to keep the technology fresh through ownership.
The voice command function has increased capabilities in relation to language processing thanks to a more natural approach to context that identifies the context of a command and the intended scope of the command.
Instead, with the 360-degree camera system—offered on high trims—the resolution is enhanced alongside the viewing perspectives to provide 360-degree coverage to help with tighter necking.
Pricing and Market Positioning
What’s most impressive, though, is that Maruti Suzuki has managed to add these safety and feature updates without pricing them out of competitiveness.
The 2025 Fronx range opens slightly higher than its predecessor, yet with the base trim remains entry-level enough that first time crossover buyers may consider it.
With the Ertiga priced this competitively, it poses a direct threat to rivals such as the Tata Nexon, Kia Sonet and Hyundai Venue, all of which do not offer six airbags as standard across the entire model range at comparable prices.
