Suzuki has cleverly combined the words "frontier" and "cross-over" to create the name "Fronx" for their new vehicle. This name represents how the Fronx crosses a frontier for Suzuki in this market segment and how its design crosses a frontier between SUV and coupé. The "X" in the name symbolizes the crossover nature of the Fronx. Not only does the name sound cool, but the driving experience is even better.
The Suzuki Fronx is a vehicle that offers excellent value for money. In South Africa, approximately 79.3% of all volume sales fall within the price range of R300,000 to R375,000. The Fronx is priced from R279,900 to R335,900, making it an attractive option for buyers looking for a great deal. With its combination of style, performance, and affordability, the Fronx is set to make a big impact on the local market.
The Fronx introduces a new styling concept to the Suzuki lineup. It combines the design elements of a coupé and an SUV, offering motorists a unique and stylish vehicle. Brendon Carpenter, the brand marketing manager of Suzuki Auto South Africa, emphasizes that the Fronx allows buyers in the compact SUV segment to have style, performance, and safety without compromising on any aspect.
The design of the Fronx shares similarities with other recent models in the Suzuki lineup, such as the Grand Vitara and the Suzuki Baleno. The design language, called Crafted Futurism, combines a sense of well-built quality with forward-thinking styling. The Fronx features signature Suzuki SUV design elements, including a distinctive grille, as well as new design elements like a swooping roofline, bold wheel arches, dual-layer front lights, large alloy wheels, and LED tail lamps.
Suzuki understands that buyers of the Fronx want to stand out from the crowd. Therefore, it will be offered in a wide range of colors and color combinations. Buyers can choose from Arctic White Pearl, Splendid Silver Pearl Metallic, Grandeur Grey Pearl Metallic, Celestial Blue Pearl Metallic, Lucent Orange Pearl Metallic, and Bluish Black Pearl exterior paint options.
The Suzuki Fronx provides a spacious cabin with numerous convenient features. All versions of the Fronx come equipped with a leather-clad multi-function steering wheel that includes buttons for Bluetooth connectivity, audio controls, and cruise control. Cruise control is standard on all versions. The steering wheel is adjustable for height, and GLX models also have reach adjustment. Other standard features include electric windows, automatic climate control with rear-seat ventilation, central locking, electric power steering, dual rear-mounted USB charging points, and a center console box that doubles as an armrest and storage compartment.
All versions of the Suzuki Fronx are powered by the popular K15B engine. This 1.5-liter four-cylinder petrol engine delivers 77kW of power at 6,000rpm and 138Nm of torque at 4,400rpm. The engine can be paired with either a five-speed manual transmission or a four-speed automatic transmission.
Suzuki is a rapidly growing car brand in South Africa, with models like the Swift and Jimny winning awards in the Car of the Year competition. The Fronx offers a comfortable and enjoyable ride, with an average fuel consumption of around 5.7 liters per 100 kilometers. It provides spacious seating for five adults and ample boot space. With its combination of value for money and the reputation of the Suzuki brand, the Fronx is an appealing choice for buyers.
