Maruti launched the Fronx crossover SUV that is based on the premium hatchback, Baleno, and weird experiments by YouTubers have commenced.
The build quality of the new Maruti Fronx has been ‘tested’ by a vlogger in this post. Fronx is a crossover SUV based on the Baleno which is slated to be positioned below the Grand Vitara mid-size SUV. In fact, its prices overlap with the compact SUV, Brezza. Apart from it boasts a unique styling that a lot of people could find attractive. But we must wait to get to know about the build quality of the Fronx until the official crash test by Global NCAP takes place. However, there are some vloggers who have started with weird tests already.

Maruti Fronx Build Quality ‘Tested’
The video has been uploaded as YouTube Shorts by MasterMindVlogsOfficial. It captures the vlogger in front of the Fronx. He says that he will test the build quality of the crossover SUV by pressing the sheetmetal. In fact, he goes on to press the bumper, bonnet, fender and C-pillar of the car and declares that it looks pretty strong. Furthermore, he also opens and closes the doors of the Fronx to check how heavy the thud sound is. After doing all this, he declares that the Fronx looks quite strong and solid to him.

We must advise our readers to be weary of such content creators. The official Global NCAP tests are conducted in such a way that they analyse every aspect of a new car. The real test of the build quality and safety equipment of any car is NCAP. Hence, such mindless ‘tests’ by YouTubers to generate some views must be detested. We hope that everyone understands that pressing the sheetmetal of cars doesn’t prove anything, especially since some parts of cars like bumpers, fenders, tailgate, etc are deliberately made up of plastics. Pressing these parts with hands doesn’t prove anything.
