Engine
The Maruti Jimny remains unchanged under the hood. It continues to be powered by a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated (NA) petrol engine. This motor produces 103 bhp and 134 Nm of torque, paired with either:
- a five-speed manual transmission
- a four-speed torque converter automatic transmission
Both transmission options come with Maruti’s AllGrip Pro 4WD system, making it a capable off-roader.
Variants and Colors
The Jimny is available in two trims:
- zeta (base variant)
- alpha (top-end variant)
You can choose from seven color options, including monotone and dual-tone shades:
- monotone colors: nexa blue, granite grey, pearl arctic white, sizzling red, bluish black
- dual-tone colors: kinetic yellow with bluish black roof, sizzling red with bluish black roof
Impact of the Price Hike
A ₹1,500 price hike might seem small compared to other Maruti Suzuki models, which saw increases of up to ₹32,500. However, with rising input costs, even a minor revision can affect a buyer’s budget. That said, the Jimny remains a strong competitor in the off-road SUV segment, taking on the likes of the Mahindra Thar and Force Gurkha.
If you were already planning to buy a Jimny, this slight price increase shouldn’t be a deal-breaker. Given its capable 4WD system, reliable engine, and Maruti’s strong after-sales service, the Jimny remains a great choice for adventure enthusiasts.
