Re: Maruti Fronx @ Auto Expo 2023

I'm looking to replace Ignis, will the ingress and egress to second row similar or close to it? Parents feel comfortable to get in and out of Ignis, but complain of harsh back seat ride.
Looking at photos, definitely floor height went up, but not able to judge what lower ceiling height make ingress little better

The back looks like a mix of the Jaguar F Pace and the Range Rover Evoque.

Re: Maruti Fronx @ Auto Expo 2023

I have come here to admin my crush for this car, just look at that first beach shot. I was not very impressed with the press releases, but it looks great it all these pictures.

The rear lights for instance, although they seem similar to Sonet's design, they just look right for the frame. Also much better than the design in global S-Cross. Some may say the front fascia is inspired by Harrier, but again, it looks properly designed. As much as I admire the Harrier, the front always felt a bit off. One possible eyesore in Fronx could be the wheel arches, we'll let the reviews roll in.

Looks are subjective, I admit, but Maruti/Suzuki have done an impressive job. I think they have a winner in their hands. I would also be interested to see what Toyota's Taisor would look like. But unlike the Baleno, I don't think I need to lean towards Toyota's avatar here.

Re: Maruti Fronx @ Auto Expo 2023

2 things I welcome:

1) Turbo Petrol from MSIL
2) Looks wise I give this 'SUV'ish hatchback a 80 on 100

Honestly, let the carmakers call it a pure crossover than calling and abusing the term "SUV" - Terms losing it's essence and the value it carries now.

Re: Maruti Fronx @ Auto Expo 2023

Mauti is planning to change the name "FRONX" before official launch. Although I dont have any idea of what it will be after change but it is expected to not carry the name FRONX.

Good decision if that it true.
Although it is still there on Nexa website, but that could be the reason of it missing from online booking list.

Re: Maruti Fronx @ Auto Expo 2023

I have not seen the car in person.
But from the pictures I have seen , the sheet metal seems to have more heft. Is that a facade or the sheet metal quality is really better than the balenos and swifts?

May I ask you to disclose the source of information? It is hard to believe that the manufacturer will resort to this with market launch not too far away. And if the news is indeed true, it is definitely a much needed move.

Though it was based on an external factor, Tata changed Zica to Tiago within a gap of three months, that too after all the media houses reviewed it with the Zica name. So it is possible. Though am not too sure of a company changing names just because people find it difficult to pronounce.

That said, the stupid name has to go!!!! No special meaning to it, difficult to pronounce, wonder who thought it was a good idea.

Add Tata Gravitas to the list.

Hope top journos at the media drive event give feedback on this and somehow convince Maruti to give this good looking car a better name.
