Autocar reviews are soo on point. No jazz and just plain Auto Journalism. Something that you'd like to see more but does not exist. Good Job Sergius! 👏🏽

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you

[@prahladarora1875]

This car is going to sell like hot cakes.. haters can keep ranting

[@sudhanshusingh6115]

Hopefully the ranting will get better cars in the future. You enjoy your death traps for now.

[@prince2.22]

Safety Left the chat😂😂

[@shahan484]

Yeah it just looks great and i already want one. Instead of venue and stuff, get this coupe

[@ravitejat19]

Can also be crushed like a cake too

[@rukkumanithirupathi3635]

And gonna get smashed by a random Tiago like a pancake

[@anandhanofc]

The design is something wow, never expected from Suzuki

[@prateeksharma2360]

Tough times ahead for magnite and kiger

[@abhinavanil343]

That's completely based on the pricing actually, the brezza was overpriced and if Suzuki does the same once again Magnite and Kiger would easily sell

[@arkaprabhamondal4441]

Nice observation. There is no point striking about magnite and kiger apart from safety. Renault and Nissan are surely going to fail in India if no new car comes from them within a year.

[@mananshah3620]

When did they have good times? 😂

[@Iminit4matador]

Spot-on

[@summerslider2487]

Dead

[@hamrazhaneefa]

Fronx just looks amazing. A bet it will go on to become the segment leader.

[@nkj9683]

Segment me aur koi car hi nahi hai to kaha se leader banegi?

[@prajjwaljha6897]

While Sergius' reviews aren't Initially very attention grabbing since they're not "dramatic/hyped" They have really grown on me, and how! It's very refreshing to see the no-nonsense and factual approach he has, in his reviews. Proper profesionalism!

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you

[@yesvanthv]

Yes this guy is the best in autocar... Full of info... No nonsense...

[@ss877S]

Fronx looks really good. Great design❤

[@shivvashishthabhargava4600]

The 1.0L Boosterjet was always a real charmer. The Fronx will do wonders for MSIL.

[@puneethgowda3717]

Proper upgrade for my baleno best city slicker especially the 6 speed auto

[@RiyajJayaprakash]

This is the front end that we wanted for grand vitara

[@sarthakshewale4493]

Loved it, Fronx is actually a good car with good engine.

[@ss877S]

Fronx is a great product by Nexa 🔥

[@vyshakreghukumar995]

Personally, I feel like the red Fronx while doing off-roading does look like a large SUV. While the Jimny was the showstealer till now, I'm sure that down the line Fronx will also witness increased sales.

[@MrJOHNKURIAN]

And another winner from Maruti 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@mukeshsharma-fd3wn]

Sergius' reviews. Super amazing and factual.

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you

[@oyeah3618]

Sergius sir is one of mine favorite reviewer man

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you

[@Syptah47]

Wow, S-Cross front end .. LR Evoque back end! .. what a stunner!

[@KicstarV]

2:44, That's what se said.

[@MegaWazir]

Had they named it Frontier instead of Fronx, meaning behind the car name would have been preserved and the name would have been much more classy. Fronx feels too casual to me.

[@aviksanyal2527]

Indeed a crossover - that between Baleno and Brezza. Maruti didn’t have to do much!

[@baskarsathya9300]

A thoroughly professional video review covering all the aspects that every car buyer across various sections looking for to.

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you

[@Prakharsinha07]

If Maruti Suzuki can price it correctly then for Tata Punch it's "Khatam Tata Goodbye Gaya". Better looks,more comfort,better engine,better after sales,better drive quality except good build quality Fronx ticks all the boxes it can even affect the sales of its own sibling Baleno. Clever move by Maruti Suzuki at the right time.

[@ag135i]

You pointed out absolutely a major flaw of marutis the damn steering don't return to the original position on it's own despite being power assisted infact the mechanical ones return quickly and easily to the central position.

[@JagjeetSingh-fh7sn]

Finally ,, waited a whole life for this review.

[@saveenkumar4249]

Must be waiting to buy it just like me 😅

[@jayeshmv]

After a long time, great design by MS. I wish they had made sleeker interior, all MS car interior looking the same in recent times.

[@satyamkalgude3902]

Might be the first Maruti car that I liked a bit

[@M4NA5]

Nice looking crossover from Suzuki.

[@kartikchand1805]

Fronx Alpha should be available with rear disc brakes to justify its price

[@superkamiguru7985]

Will consider this if it has at least 3 star safety rating.

[@rameshbalatrack572]

Stick to Bata Munch itself.. make sure you carry a fire extinguisher

[@superkamiguru7985]

@@rameshbalatrack572 lol why're you offended? Is it a crime to want safer cars?

[@pavanyaragudi]

I read it got 5 in Euro Ncap. Not sure.

[@runningfellow]

If MSIL Price it correctly, it will take some Tata Share which is currently a big threat to Maruti. If MSIL fails to price it properly then it will cannibalize Baleno and Brezza

[@dark420passenger]

Still haven't found any decent car to replace my Skoda Octavia mk1 diesel

[@nirmalraj8864]

If only Maruti had decided to balance out some of the fuel efficiency for the sake of safety.

[@rahulroy8950]

Dear autocar, please review the 1.2 NA fronx too. Not everyone wants a turbo petrol. Also please update us on the ride quality of Fronx, especially compared to its sibling Brezza. Is the suspension more stiff than brezza? Are uneven roads & potholes more felt inside the cabin?

[@sauravmitra687]

It's the benchmark for raised hatchbacks.

[@mahendra_akshaj]

Nobody can beat maruti in india, nobody Its wowwww

[@sunilgeorge4284]

Looks to be an excellent design overall, but pricing is what is going to decide its faith...according to maruti should price it in the range of Kiger/Magnite

[@na4463]

How are the NVH levels with this 3 pot engine in the Fronx ?

[@kamleshk7272]

Fronx is very good looking car . Great product by nexa

[@Tinasharma123]

Baleno, with change of name, right? With a 16 inch tyre?

[@haider4946]

I have booked Baleno. Now confused between Baleno and Fronx 1.2 Dual Jet Engine. Which one should I buy? Please suggest.

[@cobalt8585]

This is gona rule the road ❤❤

[@rosh9414]

Maruti should remove the SUV tag from this hatchback. People will buy an expensive Baleno from now on!!

[@user_baalu__1208]

Actually launching this as baleno would've been best decision by them! This car will be CashCow and they could've made more profit by baleno name!

[@Mahesh-jy7df]

THANKYOU........

[@kumaravelraja3]

Build and safety?

[@dattendradattu7010]

Eagerly waiting for the prices

[@taranshupattnaiktp3335]

Couple of things didn't liked about the Fronx 1. The name is very unusual 2. Boosterjet engine only kicks out 100hp 3. High loading lip for the boot 4. Soft seats 5. No CVT for 1.2 petrol Also what is left is the crash test rating. It has to get it done by Global NCAP.

[@akshatmathur991]

They tuned it till 100hp as brezza and grand vitara 4×4 has 1.5 ltr na of 105 hp so they can't betray them.

[@govind9402]

Cvt is shit

[@mahendra_akshaj]

Another winner from maruti 👌👍👏👏

[@krishnasasank7544]

What's the global ncap score?

[@ThePseudoBasher]

Why no rear seat armrest?

[@viralengine908]

Putting the brezza's 1.5 in it might get me interested

[@nomadUCL]

Packaging problem

[@rishibajpai2976]

How many stars in NCAP Test ??.

[@bahhaidebbarma8854]

A perfect Hatchback 🚗

[@user-dp48ry5]

A drag race of this with Kiger CVT please.

[@koffeeclub]

Kiger lacks power

[@amaljoe367]

​@@koffeeclub not the turbo cvt version

[@mahi98goodguy]

I drive a diesel alpha 2019 baleno.... It clocked 1.5l kms and recently overhauled suspension and bang it's as good as new and easily achieves 25kmpl on highways if I maintain 80kmph

[@sahildadhwal]

Everything looks good but just wondering about the safety

[@agcc137]

What about NVH levels on all engine options? Recently drove the 1 Ltr Virtus. It felt like an Alto!

[@3rdclasstatamahindrabajajRE]

😂😂 in India, very few % of ppls give priority to NVH.

[@HTgamingyt2]

1.2 liter is super refined but not sure about the 1 liter turbo 🤔

[@rajbanshuidrom767]

This is a direct threat to Grand Vitara and rather an indirect threat to kiger and magnite😂😂

[@realsforfoodball4520]

What is the global ncap rating?

[@n4suksesdong007]

Top speed fronx?

[@NathanSubramani]

Is there a toyota version to Fromx?

[@vikaskhamkar1110]

"baleno on steroids"😁😁

[@parekhtraders6707]

They are making competition for there own product

[@sujibkumarmondal]

Would look great in black or maybe in dual tone with white.

[@govind9402]

I feel this will sell in good numbers

[@nerdymonk]

Top review by Sergius and very good product by Maruti. I'm just curious whether the 1.2 being a 4 cylinder is more refined than the 3 cylinder boosterjet. Can anyone respond on that ?

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you and as for the refinement of the two engines, we will be doing a back to back hopefully soon, but if you're worried about the boosterjet because its a 3 cylinder you shouldn't be. It's refined and also does not have that typical 3 cylinder loud thrum at idle.

[@nerdymonk]

Thanks for the response Serg

[@abhilashbhardwaj5966]

Dear Magnite and Kiger. Thank you for your service. Sayonara...

[@danishnaqvi786]

High time Magnite kiger upgrade their niggles and provide features like sunroof to break through upcoming punch and fronx. Else their sales would surely decline.

[@divyanshpandey8703]

The gear thing is what I would love to see🎉

[@bmk7890]

It could get a proper suv stance if the glass area is like brezza. Is there any change in gauge for body panels?

[@naiknishanth8846]

my next car is FRONX without a doubt

[@mahi98goodguy]

If ignis would have been named fronx, then the name would have sounded appropriate

[@eugenevandermerwe3386]

Excellent review!!! Not constantly stating the manufacturers info, but providing real life, honest experience. Well done to sound, camera work and presentation.

[@naveen143528]

What will be price of the alfa variant and when the delivery starts ?

[@miteshthacker5370]

I like so many things about this car. But interiors are not one of them. Unfortunately that's the view the buyer gets.

[@mohitm4]

One of the sexiest car in Indian market now 👏🏼

[@speedbird868]

This car looks much more value for money proposition than the ugly looking Nexon...Fronx looks better and feels more mature...

[@hirenpandya5896]

What about the safety??

[@siddheshtulaskar7132]

Fronx 1.2 litre Delta Plus variant is the most VFM

[@DrDre-sy2kv]

Better option than grand vitara in my perspective

[@Shinto.12]

Is there an option to build the fronx with a tata steel body?

[@SM-ih3go]

Yes there is a variant which you can build. Body of tata, engine of mahindra, interiors of hyundai, mileage of Maruti. Its called "kuch bhi" variant.

[@sarthakshewale4493]

Sorry we don’t want Fronx to have rusting issues

[@josemonsaji]

But why should I consider this over the baleno?

[@rohitvenu]

awesome review!

[@atishwalunj3349]

Fronx and baleno at night review specially healight review...

[@rockymeto]

Will it shared with toyota?

[@sudhirnaik9723]

Is Fronx only India based model or Global

[@lovedalestudios]

It's time to change the height measurement standard from MM to INCHES....!!!

[@shreyashniwant9311]

RIP ❤️S-Cross 😭

[@kaarthikarasu6437]

Great Wrk Autocar, nw what matters is Maruthi's pricing! Hw is the booster engine going to be priced!

[@VJ-bl2oj]

What’s the Ncap safety rating?? Fuel economy of automatic will be 9kmpl which is depressing

[@sayyamgaur117]

What a car! Masterstroke by maruti unexpectedly. It will eat up the sales of brezza and to some extent of grand vitara too!

[@Kal-el1285]

For all those who's concerned about safety are just window shoppers & not the actual buyers of any product.

[@KirkLazurus]

Need the boosterjet back in the Baleno/Glanza

[@prasadv4310]

Price please

[@anmolv1]

Now only looking for NCAP rating of maruti cars 😂

[@pritamswarupajena1194]

Nice review.

[@sergiusbarretto]

Thank you

[@AtulKumar-sw6fc]

Probably, the dilemma to charge more for fronx or price the car reasonably, the launch is getting delayed.

[@MrAshwijshenoy]

Whatever nonsense Maruti makes, people will keep buying. Tata and Mahindra have to put in a lot of hard work to further ingress into the consumer market due to their previous bad reputation.

[@Torquebeast650]

tata and mahindra lack in everything other than safety , 7 ot of 10 tatas dont even start properly

[@3rdclasstatamahindrabajajRE]

​@@Torquebeast650 😂😅😢👌

[@bismarck9938]

Ncap ratings??

[@navodeepdeka1042]

Idk why does maruti keep making same segment cars. Like for 1.2 there are so many options and now also a Fronx in the list
