Ahead of its official unveiling, the carmaker has released an image showcasing its design and interesting body graphics.

Design highlights
What distinguish it are the yellow stickers and graphics on the bonnet, doors and side profile. The compact crossover continues to feature the same sporty front and rear bumpers with faux skid plates and chrome detailing, black 17-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels, split headlamps, thick black cladding, a rising waistline and a sloping roofline.
Engine Specs
The official engine specifications of the Maruti Fronx flex fuel are yet to be revealed. However, Maruti Suzuki’s 1.2L and 1.5L engines are compatible with flex fuel, and one of them is likely to power the Fronx.
Maruti Suzuki has confirmed that its first flex fuel vehicle (FFV) will be introduced in India by March 2026. It could either be the Maruti WagonR flex fuel (which was showcased at the 2023 Auto Expo and 2024 Bharat Mobility Global Expo) or the Fronx flex fuel.
Maruti Fronx Hybrid In 2026
The carmaker is also planning to launch the Fronx compact crossover with a strong hybrid powertrain, which will be developed in-house. This new strong hybrid system will be highly fuel efficient, and more cost effective than Toyota’s Atkinson cycle hybrid setup. As per reports, Maruti’s new strong hybrid powertrain could deliver a fuel efficiency of over 35kmpl. The carmaker might electrify the 1.2L, 3-cylinder Z-Series petrol engine for this setup.
Recently, one of the Fronx hybrid test mules was spotted testing with LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) sensors hinting at the presence of the ADAS (autonomous driver assistance system) suite. It also featured a ‘hybrid’ badge, while the entire design remained identical to the standard Fronx.
