Maruti Suzuki Jimny First Drive Review: Legacy reborn

India’s largest carmaker Maruti Suzuki which is trying hard to catch up with the competitors in the SUV game is gearing up for the launch of its compact SUV Jimny. The company has already got 30,000 bookings for Jimny and is confident that it has the potential to double the sales volume in the lifestyle SUV segment.

Maruti Suzuki has spent over INR 960 crore for the development of a five-door version of Jimny. Experts believe that Jimny is not just another product launch to put a number on the sales chart. The compact SUV has a much bigger role to play in Maruti Suzuki’s product portfolio.

ETAuto reviewed Jimny in and out of the city of Dehradun and curated an offroad track to test its capabilities.
