The Fronx is built on the Heartect platform and is offered with two engine options: a 1.2L petrol and a 1.0L turbo-petrol. The safety update aligns the model with competitors like the Hyundai Venue, Kia Sonet, Tata Nexon and Mahindra XUV 3XO, which already offer six airbags.
Expected Update for Toyota Taisor
The Toyota Taisor, which shares its platform and production line with the Fronx at Suzuki’s Gujarat plant, currently offers six airbags only in its higher trims. An announcement from Toyota regarding a similar safety update is expected soon.
Recent Export Milestone
The Fronx recently crossed the one lakh export mark in just over two years. It was first launched in India in April 2023, with exports beginning later that year. The vehicle is manufactured at Maruti Suzuki’s facility in Gujarat.
Wider Rollout Across Maruti Lineup
The Fronx update is part of Maruti Suzuki’s larger plan to make six airbags standard across its entire passenger vehicle lineup by the end of 2025. The XL6 was updated on July 23, 2025, with a price increase of up to 0.8%.
Similarly, six airbags were made standard on all variants of the Ertiga and Baleno on July 16, 2025. This led to price increases of 1.4% for the Ertiga and 0.5% for the Baleno.
Compliance with Anticipated Safety Norms
These updates come ahead of the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways’ expected regulation requiring six airbags in all new passenger vehicles from October 2025. While the mandate has not yet been enforced, manufacturers are updating their product lines in preparation.
Other Maruti Suzuki models that already come with six airbags across all variants include the Alto K10, Celerio, WagonR, Eeco, Swift, Dzire, Brezza, Grand Vitara, Jimny and Invicto.
