Fronx in Chennai: questions buyers ask
Does the Fronx's 190 mm ground clearance help in Chennai's monsoon?
It gives more margin than a hatchback on waterlogged streets, but the depth of the water matters more than ground clearance. If the water reaches the middle of the wheels, turn back.
Which Fronx is best for the Chennai Bangalore highway?
The Fronx Zeta Turbo or above. The turbo's 147.6 Nm makes overtaking easier, and cruise control starts with the Fronx Zeta Turbo. The 37-litre tank covers the 350 km trip with plenty to spare.
Why do both turbo automatics pay 18% in Chennai?
Because the Fronx Zeta Turbo AT and Fronx Alpha Turbo AT are priced at ₹11.04 lakh and above, past ₹10 lakh. The automatic adds ₹2.15 lakh on-road over the manual Fronx Zeta Turbo.
Is the Fronx's boot practical for a Chennai family?
At 308 litres it is smaller than the Dzire's 382, but the wide hatch opening makes bulky items easier to load. Fold the rear seat when you need more room.
Does the Fronx CNG get a touchscreen?
The Fronx Delta CNG does, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, but the Fronx Sigma CNG does not. The step between them costs ₹93,200 on-road in Chennai.
