So you have Rs. 10 lakh to spend on a nice automatic car, but you don’t want a typical hatchback or a compact sedan. What are your options then? It’s pretty much either the Hyundai Exter or the Maruti Fronx.

Our long-term Maruti Suzuki Fronx has been consistently doing a 50km daily round trip between Mumbai and Navi Mumbai. In the last 1,000km, we've learned more about how the car is to live with. Here's what will help you make an informed decision if you are considering this top-spec turbo-petrol crossover and your usage involves a lot of city driving.

After the runaway success of the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, the carmaker decided to bring in a sporty and muscular crossover based on it. Enter the Fronx. This car debuted at the Auto Expo in January this year. It's already on the list of top-10 highest-selling cars in India. But what makes it so special? We shall delve deeper and find answers as it has entered our long-term fleet now. So, it will undergo daily driving, city runabouts, and highway runs, and we will be basically living with it for the next few months.
