First long-drive in the Maruti Suzuki Fronx Turbo: Drive Experience

Here are the pros and cons I noticed in my Maruti Suzuki Fronx after its first long-distance outing

Bhpian Myavu recently shared this with other enthusiasts:

Yesterday Fronx Turbo did her first long-distance outing. Delhi-Khatu Shyam Ji mandir, Rajasthan – Agra – Delhi (800+ km round trip).

Pros.

  • Excellent Mileage
  • Excellent bottom and mid-range power output.
  • Good straight-line stability in triple-digit speeds.
  • Short-throw gearshifts with light clutch.
  • Excellent Cruise Control calibration—80% of the trip was in Cruise Control set speed. (My first drive with Cruise Control, and I’m sold on it.)
  • Neutral ride and handling
  • Good brakes.

Cons.

  • Pathetic headlights Only good for city driving and dark roads. With oncoming traffic, it’s a nightmare.
  • Steering is light and weighs well through high speeds. But the steering has an overweight feeling, and it’s a bit too hard compared to my Figo EPS.
  • Quick lane changes and high-speed corners reveal the rear bulk and heaviness.
  • A speedy and functional car but not an enthusiast’s delight like the Figo.

The final mileage figure stands at 21 kmpl while turning the car off back home. Me and my cousin were looking at each other in disbelief.

I had already put Taisor on my wishlist for my Beat replacement next year. I hope C3 gets a 360-degree camera by then.

Cheers!
