Verdict
Both of these products are jam-packed to the brim with features. We’ll have to wait till Fronx’s prices are revealed. But it will be more expensive than a Baleno. Therefore, we can say that the Fronx is the one for you if you like the SUV-like silhouette, are seeking a powerful engine, and don’t mind spending a little more. Additionally, it will give you a practical all-wheel-drive setup, which may be a crucial factor for many consumers.
Baleno should work, though, if you’re not caught up in the SUV craze and are searching for a good deal on a product. It has all of the contemporary features seen in the most recent generation model, which was updated only recently. That is the reason it has been selling so well in our market for a very long time. However, it will take some time before we learn how much more expensive the new Fronx is in comparison to the Baleno. You simply can’t go wrong with either of these, in any case.
