Final Verdict
The Fronx 2025 excels as a stylish, feature-packed crossover with Maruti’s low running costs. While its turbo engine adds fun and the CNG variant boosts savings, the cramped rear space and lack of ADAS may deter some buyers. For those seeking a Baleno with SUV flair, it’s the best pick under ₹13L.
