There is a tremendous demand for compact cars in the Indian auto market. These vehicles, which offer great comfort, mileage and performance at a low price, are performing amazingly in terms of sales. This is the reason why the country’s popular car manufacturers are ready to launch many new and exciting products in this segment. This list includes everything from Maruti Suzuki Fronx Hybrid to the all-new Hyundai Venue. So let’s take a look at the details revealed so far about these upcoming cool SUVs.
Maruti Suzuki Fronx Hybrid
First on this list is the updated version of Maruti’s game-changer SUV – Fronx Hybrid! This SUV has already made a place in the hearts of customers due to its affordable price and excellent packaging, and now it will give even more mileage than before. The company is going to give it a new hybrid powertrain with mild exterior and interior updates.
If reports are to be believed, Maruti Suzuki will introduce the 1.2-litre Z12E petrol engine in this upcoming SUV combined with a smart hybrid system. A few days ago, its testing mule was also seen on Indian roads. Talking about other updates, the new Fronx can also get premium features like standard 6 airbags, sunroof and 360 degree camera, which will make it even more attractive.
