Maruti Suzuki is a popular car manufacturer in the Indian auto market. Maruti's lineup includes several impressive hatchbacks and SUVs. Notably, the new Fronx SUV, which was launched in April of last year, is quite popular in the domestic market. The sales of this car are continuously increasing.
If you also like the Fronx SUV, there's good news for you. Maruti Suzuki plans to equip its Fronx SUV with an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS). Yes, it was recently spotted during testing on Indian roads.
