360-Degree Camera
Making navigating through tight spaces a breeze, the Maruti Fronx comes with a 360-degree camera set-up that displays the surround view on the infotainment screen while making tight turns or maneuvering the vehicle through congested spots. A blessing for those narrow hill roads!
Heads Up Display
Another addition to the Fronx that makes the life of the driver easier is a heads-up display unit. While it looks nifty, it significantly aids the driver by displaying essential drive-related stats and information directly on to the view of the driver.
Wireless Charger
Limited to the top-spec trims, the Maruti Fronx offers a wireless charger and keeps the tangling wires in check. This feature is now getting mainstream with some lower-segment cars offering it as well. Plus, this is something you will use on a regular basis if your smartphone supports it.
Paddle Shifters (AT Only)
For more in-control gearshifts, the automatic variant of the Maruti Fronx comes with a paddle shifter. It not only adds sportiness to the driving experience, but is an excellent, and in our opinion, should be included with other automatic models across segments. However, due to its added cost, lower segments generally don't make sense to include this, talking economically.
6 Airbags
From the Zeta and Alpha variants, you get a pretty solid safety suit with 6 airbags completing the platter along with additions like a 360-degree camera, heads-up display, rearview camera, and more. However, with the base and lower variants, you still get a dual airbags set-up.
