The Sandton Times took the Suzuki Fronx for a week long test-drive around the city of Cape Town, to get a real feel for the Suzuki brand on roads without additional hazards – and it delivered the goods.

 

Having never sat in a Suzuki vehicle before, the Suzuki Fronx was a surprisingly satisfying ride, with its bold front grille, sloping roofline, and K15B 1.5 litre petrol engine.

 

But what really sets the Suzuki Fronx apart is its attention to detail. From the signature Suzuki SUV design elements to the sleek and stylish exterior, every aspect of the Fronx has been carefully crafted to create a truly unique driving experience.
