New cut-price hybrid SUV incoming: 2026 Suzuki Fronx pricing and specs confirmed, but there’s a catch

Suzuki has confirmed pricing and details for its newest product in Australia, the Fronx.

The 2026 Suzuki Fronx is a small SUV landing in Australia in late-Q3 this year, with a mild-hybrid drivetrain " and a position to — in a sense — replace the Ignis.

There’s only one grade called Fronx Hybrid and it lands at $28,990 before on-road costs.

It’s also relatively stacked when it comes to features, and Suzuki is even working on a sub-$30K drive-away offer for its on-sale date in September this year. We’d expect that means about $29,990 DA, though that’s to be confirmed down the track.

For something at that price-point, features aren’t lacking. Wireless phone charging and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay have become almost expected for even entry-level cars in Australia, but the Fronx also features heated synthetic leather seats and a leather steering wheel.

It’s the first Suzuki in Australia to feature a head-up display, and there’s also a standard surround-view parking display.

The Fronx’s 9.0-inch multimedia touchscreen is joined by a small 4.2-inch driver display nestled between physical dials for the speedometer and tachometer. There are LED lights front and rear, with auto headlights and manual levelling.

It is powered by a 1.5-litre four cylinder engine with mild-hybrid, driving the front wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission. It makes 76kW and 137Nm, and Suzuki claims fuel consumption at 4.9L/100km.

The Fronx is 3995mm long, 1765mm wide, and 1550mm tall, while weighing just 1064kg. Luggage capacity in the boot is 304 litres, or 605 litres with the rear 60/40 split seats folded.
