Pak Suzuki’s First CKD SUV – Fronx to Hit the Market Next Year
Pak Suzuki Motor Company (PSMC) ne announce kiya hai ke woh agle saal pehle quarter mein ek compact SUV local CKD (Completely Knocked Down) form mein market karegi.
CKD assembly karna ka faida yeh hoga ke import duties kam hongi, localization badhegi, jo ke final price ko thoda “customer-friendly” bana sakti hai.
Yih SUV Suzuki Fronx hogi — jo abhi tak globally Suzuki ka subcompact crossover model hai.
International Specs
Kyuki abhi Pakistan variant ke complete specs nahin aye hain, hum international variants ke data se andaza laga sakte hain ke local model mein kya ho sakta hai:

- Ground clearance: ~ 170 mm
- Turning radius: ~ 4.8 m (i.e. maneuverability ke liye helpful)
Exterior & Styling Features
- SUV character + coupe-style roofline (sporty look)
- Split headlamp layout, bold front grille, gloss black trims
- LED headlamps, LED DRLs, “Follow Me Home” lighting function
- Electrically adjustable & foldable side mirrors with turn indicators

Expected Price & Market Positioning in Pakistan
- Reported range: PKR 6 to 7 million for the locally assembled version
- Yeh price segment (6–7 million) may place Fronx in competition with mid-range crossovers / SUVs in Pakistan
- CKD production may allow cost savings vs full imports, giving Pak Suzuki flexibility in pricing
Fronx Could Be a Game Changer
- Pehla SUV in CKD form for Pak Suzuki — it shows Suzuki’s intent to move beyond just small cars’
- The compact SUV segment is in demand globally and locally — buyers prefer SUVs / crossovers for their styling & higher ride height
- If Suzuki gives good value (features + safety) at a competitive price, Fronx can attract many buyers shifting from sedans / hatchbacks
- It helps Suzuki expand its product portfolio and strengthen its position in Pakistan’s rapidly evolving auto market
