The 2025 Maruti Fronx comes with a facelift, new features, and a new strong hybrid powertrain with higher efficiency and lower emissions. Coupe-inspired LED detailing adds a sporty touch while updating the grille and alloy wheels improves its road presence.
The cabin now includes wireless smartphone connectivity, an upgraded touchscreen infotainment system, and the dual-tone upholstery gives it a more premium feel. To improve comfort and add convenience, there are also rear AC vents, fast-charging USB ports, a heads-up display, and additional seating comfort features.
Performance and Powertrain Options
The Maruti Fronx comes with three engine choices: a 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol engine, a 1.0L turbo Boosterjet petrol engine, and a 1.2L CNG variant. Additionally, this trim marks the debut of Maruti’s new strong hybrid system using their Z12E petrol engine, targeting over 35 km/l. For 2025, the highlight is the in-house strong hybrid system combining with the Z12E engine.
There are 5-speed manual and AMT, and 6-speed torque converter automatic with paddle shifter options among the 5 offered. The hybrid variant utilises a series configuration where the petrol engine charges the battery while an electric motor drives the wheels.
Safety and Ride Experience
The Fronx integrates modern safety features with comfort, offering up to six airbags, hill-hold assist, ESP, and ABS with EBD on most trims. Additionally, a 360-degree camera along with a tyre pressure monitoring system bolster safety, especially in city driving.
Comfort is prioritised in the ride quality, with well-mannered suspension that soaks up bumps and improves stability. Combined with light and responsive steering, 190mm ground clearance instils confidence on rough roads.
Pricing and Market Position
CNG and hybrid variants promise to lower running costs, making them attractive for the budget-conscious buyer. The 2025 Fronx starts at ₹7.55 lakh for the Sigma variant and goes up to ₹12.91 lakh for the top-spec Alpha Turbo with automatic transmission (ex-showroom).
The Fronx joins the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, and Tata Nexon as rivals, competing with a broad selection of trims and powertrains. It also brings distinctive styling, modern technology, and fuel efficiency to the table.

The Fronx’s bold design and smart features are ideal for fuel-conscious urban drivers wanting versatility and performance. It delivers style and savings, and the Fronx offers both wrapped up in a sleek SUV package.
