Latest Update: The highly anticipated Maruti Suzuki Jimny has finally made its way to the Indian market. Tap here to see its complete price list.
Maruti Suzuki has received an excellent response for the Jimny, as the off-roader has already garnered over 15,000 bookings in just three weeks from its premiere at the Auto Expo 2023. The SUV will be sold through Maruti Suzuki’s premium Nexa outlets. Test drives of the Jimny are yet to begin.
Compared to its global-spec version which is a 3-door offering, the Indian-spec Jimny will come in a 5-door avatar with an extended wheelbase. It will be sold in Zeta and Alpha variants. Powering the off-roader will be the 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder petrol engine rated at 105PS and 134Nm. It will drive all four wheels of the car via its AllGrip Pro 4×4 drivetrain, mated to either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed torque converter automatic transmission.
