The all-new Jimny off-roader has been introduced by Maruti Suzuki with a starting price of Rs. 12.74 lacks (ex-showroom, India) in the Indian market. The 5-door SUV is also available through Maruti Suzuki Subscribe for a monthly subscription price of Rs 33,550 which is all-inclusive. The Maruti Suzuki Jimny is now available in two classes, Zeta and Alpha, with both manual and automatic gearbox options.
Mr. Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO of Maruti Suzuki India Limited, stated when announcing Jimny’s prices, “We are fortunate to introduce the renowned Jimny, a symbol of excitement, into the Indian market. Since making its global debut in 1970, the Jimny has defied convention thanks to its classic styling and superb off-road performance enabled by Suzuki’s ALLGRIP PRO (4WD) technology. The introduction of the Jimny (5-door) is an exciting turning point in our lineup of SUVs and will be crucial to achieving our objective of being the nation’s leading SUV manufacturer.
Zeta and Alpha models of the Jimny (5-door) will be offered, with both automatic and manual gearbox options. Its sturdy body frame, which is supported by its upright A-pillars, and flat clamshell bonnet, which provides a commanding vision from the cabin outward, enable drivers to navigate difficult terrain. The Jimny’s LED projector headlights with washers ensure that visibility is maintained even in the worst circumstances. The streamlined bumpers’ slanted edges increase wheel clearance for quick movement, and the sections’ protective black textures prevent damage. The Jimny was meticulously created to enhance the driving experience by fusing form, function, and innovation.
In order to increase the driver’s comprehension of the orientation of the automobile over undulating surfaces, the instrument panel and center dashboard have been developed. Parts of the interior have a design that resembles the body of a premium single-lens reflex camera, which hides minor blemishes, reduces reflections, and is comfortable to hold. It has a sizable boot and a wide rear entrance, which make it simple and convenient to load and unload your luggage.
