The Suzuki Fronte (Japanese: スズキ・フロンテ) is an automobile that was first introduced in March 1962 as a sedan version of the Suzulight Van. The nameplate remained in use for Suzuki's Kei car sedans as well as some other commercial-use vehicles until it was replaced by the Alto name (originally only used for commercial vehicles) in September 1988. The word "fronte" means "forehead" or "front" alluding to the fact that the car is front-wheel-drive.
