Maruti Suzuki has unveiled two new models at the Auto Expo – the new Baleno-based Fronx SUV-coupe and the much-awaited 5-door Jimny SUV. The new Maruti Suzuki Fronx will go on sale in April this year and bookings are already underway.

  1. Maruti Fronx gets 1.0 turbo-petrol and 1.2 petrol engines

Maruti Suzuki Fronx: variant break-up, engine details

The new Fronx is one of the very few Maruti models to be offered with two engine options – there’s a new 1.0-litre, three-cylinder turbo-petrol Boosterjet engine as well as the existing 1.2-litre, four-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine, both offered with Maruti’s mild-hybrid tech. The former produces 100hp and 147.6Nm while the latter continues to produce 90hp and 113Nm.

The turbo-petrol engine is offered with either a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 6-speed torque converter automatic gearbox, while the NA petrol engine gets a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT gearbox.

The 1.2 NA engine is offered on the first three trims – Sigma, Delta and Delta+. The manual gearbox is standard on all three trims, while the AMT gearbox can be had on the Delta and Delta+ trims. The 1.0 turbo engine will be offered on the Delta+, Zeta and Alpha trims. Again, the manual standard on all trims while the AT gearbox is available on Zeta and Alpha trims.

BMW has taken the wraps off its most powerful M3 ever, the F80 M3 CS, which is even more powerful than the BMW M3 competition. The BMW M3 CS will be sold in sedan bodystyle only and in limited numbers worldwide.  BMW M3 sedan gets 550hp twin-turbo petrol Does 0-100kph in 3.4 seconds Gets BMW’s xDrive AWD tech with selectable RWD BMW M3 CS: design and interior  The M3 CS is set apart from the M3 Competition visually by a raft of design tweaks, such as an angrier-looking, open front grille designed to match the front end of BMW’s GT4-spec M4 racer. Gaping air intakes round off the new-look nose. These are joined by a host of items that enhance aerodynamics, such as a wide front splitter and a lipped rear spoiler. It gets special V-spoke gold wheels – 19-inch at the front and 20-inch at the rear – shod with track-focused tyres. The M compound brakes come with red calipers, while carbon-ceramic brakes are also available. The interior broadly matches that of the M3 Compe...
