Maruti Suzuki Fronx Crosses 5 Lakh Production Milestone in Just 28 Months

Maruti Suzuki Fronx has achieved a major production milestone of 5 lakh units in just 28 months since its launch in April 2023. The subcompact SUV continues to be one of the fastest-growing models in Maruti Suzuki’s lineup, cementing its popularity in both domestic and international markets.

Fronx vs Grand Vitara: Faster to the Milestone

Earlier this year, Maruti Suzuki’s Grand Vitara crossed the 3 lakh sales milestone in 32 months, but the Fronx has gone a step further, reaching the 5 lakh production milestone in just 28 months. While not a direct apples-to-apples comparison, it highlights the rising demand for subcompact and compact SUVs in India and Maruti’s ability to scale up production rapidly.

Exports Drive Growth

The 5 lakh figure includes over 1 lakh exports, with the Fronx being shipped to markets such as Japan, Latin America, Mexico, the Middle East, and Africa. Maruti Suzuki started exporting the Fronx in 2023, and by July 2025, it had already achieved the 1 lakh export milestone.

How Maruti Ramped Up Fronx Production

• First 1 lakh units: December 2023
• 2 lakh milestone: June 2024
• 3 lakh milestone: November 2024
• 4 lakh milestone: February 2025
• 5 lakh milestone: July 2025

This steady ramp-up shows how the Fronx has become a core product in Maruti’s production strategy.
