South Africa: Made-in-India Maruti Suzuki Fronx launched in South Africa: Gets a 1.5-litre engine

Maruti Suzuki India launched the Maruti Fronx compact SUV in the Indian market in April 2023. Since then it’s been a success and now the company has launched the India-made Fronx in the South African market. The SUV gets different colour options with a bigger power plant.
The Fronx in South Africa is offered with two variants and a sole 1.5-litre NA Petrol engine paired with a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The engine puts out 104 hp of power and 138 Nm of torque. The price for the Fronx starts from R339900 (about Rs 15 lakh at current exchange rates).

As mentioned previously the Fronx in South Africa is offered in two variants – GL and GLX. The base variant GL gets features such as 16-inch alloy wheels, automatic LED headlamps with DRLs, electrically adjustable ORVMs, leather-wrapped steering wheel with mounted controls, automatic climate control with rear AC vents, 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, rear-view camera, cruise control, hill hood control, dual-front airbags, ABS, ESP, ISOFIX and rear parking sensors.

The Fronx launched in South Africa looks exactly the same as the one sold in India. The only difference we could find in the pictures is the absence of ‘SmartHybrid’ badging on its tailgate. The Fronx in South Africa also gets an exclusive orange colour option which is not offered in India.
