Pros and Cons

  • Rear seat space — great kneeroom and foot room. Ample headroom despite sloping roof
  • HUGE 470-litre boot space
  • Will accommodate a whole lot more than just a weekend’s worth of luggage easily.
Maruti FRONX
  • Mini Grand Vitara styling
  • Cabin offers enough space for four six-footers
  • Supple ride quality
  • One-litre turbo-petrol engine offers all-round driveability and performance.
Citroen Basalt
  • Bare basic feature list - Sunroof

  • push-button start stop are sorely missed; 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine does not feel refined
  • Automatic gearbox is slow to respond.
Maruti FRONX
  • Lacks niceties like sunroof and ventilated seats
  • Sloping roofline eats into rear headroom
  • Rear cabin lacks adequate storage spaces.

Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Is it better than Baleno?
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. There’s a lot to like about the Fronx, and little to fault. It brings with it a likeable balance between a premium hatchback, a sub-compact SUV and a compact SUV. The Fronx is ticking the basics of style, space, comfort and everyday usability. A few more features or a smaller asking price would’ve made it a whole lot easier for us to recommend it. On the other hand, the new Baleno is still a safe and sensible choice. Now with the design changes, feature additions, and improved drive, it has become more desirable too. Some things could have been better though. Maruti Suzuki should have improved the seating comfort, given it a more powerful petrol engine option, and made more significant changes to the exterior to help it look like a brand-new car. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city accordingly for dealershipdetails.
