MANILA: The Suzuki Fronx appears to be ready for its official launch after the Land Transportation Office gives the crossover the green light.

Based on the homologation papers released by the agency, the Suzuki Fronx will be powered by a 1,462 cubic-centimeter gasoline engine with a top speed of 175 kilometers per hour.
It was not shown what transmission setup was used, but Carmudi Philippines suspects that it could be the Suzuki automated manual transmission, which is commonly known as Auto Gear Shift or AGS.

Dimension-wise, the paperwork states that the Suzuki Fronx has an overall length of 3,995 millimeters (mm), an overall width of 1,765 mm, and an overall height of 1,550 mm.

As a proper crossover, it will have seating for five people and will run on a set of 16-inch wheels wrapped with 196/60 tires.
