Maruti Suzuki India’s Fronx has crossed 2 lakh exports in under 38 months, making it the fastest SUV from India to achieve the milestone, the automaker said on Tuesday.
The Made-in-India SUV began exports in June 2023 and reached its first 1 lakh exports in under 25 months. It added the next 1 lakh in around 13 months.
Manufactured at Maruti Suzuki’s Hansalpur facility in Gujarat, the Fronx is being exported to nearly 90 countries, including Japan.
“Every vehicle exported by Maruti Suzuki carries the hard work and pride of our people. Together, these vehicles take a piece of Indian manufacturing to nearly 120 countries,” said Hisashi Takeuchi, managing director and CEO, Maruti Suzuki India.

The Fronx has emerged as a key contributor to the automaker’s overseas performance, with the company saying it has been India’s No. 1 exported passenger vehicle since FY25.
“Fronx has been a key contributor to Maruti Suzuki’s success in exports. Since FY 24-25, it has been India's No. 1 exported passenger vehicle and is now shipped to nearly 90 countries. After crossing the milestone of 1 lakh exports in record time, Fronx reached its second lakh significantly faster, underlining its growing demand in the international markets,” Takeuchi said.
He said the company’s export strategy was aligned with its broader push to position India as a global manufacturing base.
“Aligned with ‘Make in India, Make for the World’, Maruti Suzuki continues to showcase the prowess of India’s manufacturing ecosystem. Sustained focus on exports has earned the Company the number one position in passenger vehicle exports from India,” he said.
All three of India’s top exported passenger vehicles in Q1 FY27 were Maruti Suzuki models, the company said.
“The growing export volumes year-on-year are a strong endorsement of the reliability and appeal of the Company’s products across global markets,” Takeuchi said.
