It would be Maruti’s 13th CNG car on sale and the second SUV to get the option 

Update (24/04/23): Maruti has launched the Fronx crossover SUV in India, starting from Rs 7.47 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

Maruti Fronx CNG

  • Maruti is expected to launch the Fronx in March; the CNG variants could debut soon. 

  • Baleno’s 1.2-litre petrol-CNG engine is rated at 78PS/98.5Nm while running on CNG. 

  • CNG could be available with its mid-spec Delta and Zeta variants. 

  • CNG variants could feature LED headlamps, a seven-inch touchscreen system, wireless charger, and six airbags. 

  • The Fronx is expected to retail from Rs 8 lakh; CNG could command Rs 1 lakh over corresponding petrol variants. 

Maruti showcased the Fronx SUV-coupe at the Auto Expo 2023 and it is expected to go on sale in March. Ahead of the price reveal, the SUV has been spotted with an emission kit, which hints that it could get a CNG variant as well.

The Fronx shares its 90PS 1.2-litre petrol engine with the Baleno, which already gets the clean fuel alternative. The hatchback delivers 78PS and 98.5Nm while running on CNG and claims a fuel efficiency of 30.61km/kg. We’re expecting the same figures and a similar economy for the Fronx as well. Do note that the SUV-coupe also gets a 100PS 1-litre turbo-petrol engine, paired with five-speed manual and six-speed automatic transmissions.

We’re expecting the Fronx to debut first, followed by its CNG variants soon after.

With this, Maruti will have 13 CNG cars on sale and this will be the carmaker’s second SUV to get CNG.
