Suzuki Introduces the All-New Fronx: A Stylish and Smart Compact SUV for Japan
Suzuki Motor Corporation has officially launched the all-new Fronx in Japan, positioning it as a compact SUV of a new genre that blends coupe-inspired styling with practical urban functionality. Already well received in other markets, the Fronx now arrives in Japan with exclusive features, a sporty design, and a hybrid powertrain, aimed at modern drivers seeking a balance of style, performance, and everyday convenience.
Sleek Coupe-Inspired Design Meets Urban Versatility
Designed around the concept of an easy-to-handle coupe-style SUV, the new Fronx makes a bold first impression. The front fascia exudes strength and sophistication with a high-set grille and muscular lines, while double fenders enhance the SUV’s road presence. The sleek roofline and aerodynamic silhouette give it a distinctive coupe aesthetic—ideal for navigating crowded city streets.
Inside, the Fronx showcases a refined Black x Bordeaux interior color theme, accented by bright silver trim that adds to its premium and sporty feel. Despite its compact footprint, the cabin is spacious and thoughtfully designed, offering excellent rear-seat legroom and impressive comfort.
Compact Size, Premium Comfort
Measuring 3,995 mm in length, 1,765 mm in width, and 1,550 mm in height, the Fronx is built for urban environments. With a tight turning radius of 4.8 meters, it’s easy to maneuver in city traffic or tight parking spots. To ensure a serene in-cabin experience, Suzuki has incorporated sound-insulating materials like a high-metered dash inner silencer and noise-blocking walls, reducing outside noise and enhancing in-car conversations.
Convenience is front and center with a suite of standard features, including:
- Memory navigation with smartphone connectivity
- Electric parking brake
- Wireless phone charger
Mild Hybrid Powertrain and 4WD Variant for Japan
The Fronx is powered by Suzuki’s 1.5-liter K15C engine paired with a mild hybrid system and a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering both strong acceleration and fuel-efficient performance. For the Japanese market, Suzuki has introduced a 4WD variant, offering added traction and control for all-weather driving—making it suitable for both city commuting and weekend getaways.
Advanced Safety for Everyday Peace of Mind
In keeping with Suzuki’s focus on safety, the Fronx is equipped with the brand’s latest preventative safety technologies, including:
- Dual Sensor Brake Support II
- Adaptive Cruise Control (with full-speed follow and stop support)
- Lane Keep Assist
These systems provide enhanced protection and assistance, contributing to a confident and relaxed driving experience.
A Smart, Sporty SUV Tailored for Japanese Roads
With its stylish design, compact footprint, hybrid efficiency, and advanced safety tech, the all-new Suzuki Fronx is set to redefine expectations in Japan’s compact SUV segment. It offers drivers a unique blend of everyday usability and standout design, embodying the spirit of a coupe with the practicality of an SUV.
