Over the next few months, as many as five new SUVs are waiting to be launched in India in the compact and midsize SUV segments from Maruti Suzuki, Tata, Kia and Honda. Here we bring you all the lowdown:

1. Maruti Suzuki Fronx:

The compact SUV coupe’s prices will be announced next month or in April and it has a distinctive coupe-like roofline while drawing design inspiration from Grand Vitara and Baleno. It sits on the same Heartect platform as the Baleno and shares the 1.2L petrol engine and features list with it. On top of that, the Fronx will be sold with a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine too.

2. Maruti Suzuki Jimny:

The long awaited Maruti Suzuki Jimny made its debut alongside the Fronx at the 2023 Auto Expo and it will go on sale in May 2023. The lifestyle off-road SUV has larger proportions than the global three-door model and it derives power from the 1.5L K15B four-pot petrol engine. It will be linked with a five-speed MT or a four-speed AT driving all four wheels as standard.
