I am so happy that nikhil reviewed this , he is one of the most natural auto journalist and delivers the content effortlessly. Just one question thought Jimny is known for being tough as nails. does this 5 door one feel the same way.

That continous smile on Nikhil's face is sign that Jimny is big win.

That last line in this video by Nikhil was so satisfying, 'The long wait was worth it'. Excited.

JIMNY is a real SUV unlike the Blown out hatchbacks.❤❣❤‍🔥

Most awaited from Autocar India :) u guys kept this under complete wrap!!

Every presenter from every Automotive YT channel putting out a wide grin while off roading says it all. It isn't everybody's car. But, a cool and light Thar alternative. Suzukis are far cheaper to maintain and more reliable than the Mahindras.

Although the jimny is too cheap in cost cutting and quality for the unjustified price and full of compromises like all suzuki cars, I watched the video just because of Nikhil. He is the best car reviewer in India in my opinion. Gavin feels too boring to me now. But those tyres look like bicycle tyres lol. No bottle holders? Only 2 at back? Power buttons in the middle seriously suzuki? Did you ask 16lakhs for such a cheapo? Hope mad suzuki fanboys don't get mad like always.

it's finally here and it looks very good with the 5-door version but the question is where is the 3-door version maybe discontinued or it's still there

The perfect review. All the info anyone would want clearly communicated. Powerdrift is now a couple of kids trying very hard to be cool and overly jazzy, Overdrive made Jimny look like a package of all negatives, Autocar did it best. Superb review. Thank you AC. Very happy Nikhil did this.

Unfortunately, I didn't like the video. This is an off-road vehicle. You guys should have shown the real sounds of the car inside and outside while the movement of the vehicle, instead of background music's, especially on off roads.

Excellent review. Jimny would be a huge hit in Kerala where there are steep inclines which are not turbo engine friendly. There are people here who still keep Gypsies as a workhorse

Thanks for this. Seen so many videos but you're like always the best

Superb review. Hats off to whole autocar crew. Especially Nikhil ❤🎉

Jimny. What an SUV ❤. Jimny is really capable 🔥

This is the Maldevtha/Raipur area around Dehradun. Grew up here and love it! Brings back so many memories.

Suzuki in Indonesia really need to import this Jimny. We are absolutely in love with this car even when it's very limited and pricey (because it's imported from Japan). I can't imagine the queue if Suzuki sell this 4 door Jimny around the same price of Grand Vitara fwd.

Jimny is better than Thar in every way except for the safety and engine power.. Even then, the power to weight ratio is at par with the Thar... 1. Better mileage 2. Better after sales 3. Much more reliable 4. Better resale 5. Better off road capabilities than the Thar 6. World wide recognition Another point to mention, most people just purchase the Thar just for it's road presence and spend most of their time in the city.. True and Hardcore off roaders and enthusiasts will surely go for the Jimny... Thar and Gurkha killer on cards with Suzuki ❤🔥👑💥💯

That intro is hellraiser

Drove this in the 2 door variant in Australia. It was really good in terms of comfort and usability in bad conditions but was just terrible on the highway. The automatic I drove just had to be constantly pushed pedal down to keep it moving at respectable highway speeds in Aus. Great off-roader but huge compromise on highway.

Its good to see Nikhil reviewing all the crucial vehicles. 👍

Let's just appreciate how much hardwork and determination Suzuki have put into the vehicle. This is an absolutely iconic vehicle. Legendary work by MSIL. Sure, it isn't the complete product but what a package. 4x4 for the masses. Yes.

Presentation of you Nikhil is just stunning

Remember Guys, Nikhil is just under 6 ft tall

Quite a looker. And also a very competent offroader. If you are under 50, adventurous and rich enough, this would be a great car to possess even if you already own a regular car. Thanks for a sharp and balanced review. Excellent videography.

So many videos on the KZfaq today for testing Jimmy but I skipped them all for this. Love you Nikhil for what you bring to the floor. Perfect review doesn't exist.

When I think of Jimny, I think of Gypsy. When compared to Gypsy, Maruti has taken Jimny to the next level. I like that an Indian company like Maruti has a specific vehicle for off-roading. The only thing I didn't like was that Maruti should have given a six speed automatic, instead of a four speed. I agree that maybe this engine does not support a six speed, but Maruti could have easily managed to bring a six speed automatic. Overall, I think this vehicle is perfect for hilly terrains and also for people, who can own this as a second car, beside their family vehicle.

A review is always incomplete without Autocar going according to their test methods.. Such are their standards ❤❤❤

From the maroon Alto K10 to this lime green Jimny, have always loved your videos.

The Grin on Nik's Face says it that he has enjoyed the Jimny to the fullest !. 😋And a Word of appreciation for the music. Perfect in sync with the Review. 🔥

This car reminds me of the 5rs toy car of my childhood 😅

Finally the most awaited review.

Im just glad people are sceptical about this car. Lower waiting period 🙏

I love it, but I want a bigger 6, 7 seat version of it, Maruti Suzuki better make it soon. It would attract a lot more buyers.

I'm interested in how much it gets in Global NCAP crash test

Arduous and tiring to drive long distance.. rear seats lack under thigh support. Not a great choice for long distance journey

Please convey to the curmudgeonly Product Guys in Maruti they're sitting on a 20k p.m volume only if they do a Booster jet + 5 AT + 2WD. We Indians love our boxy compact SUVs and they have the perfect combo!

Great review by Nikhil the rest of the autocar team could learn a thing or two from him. For their love of European cars their reviews becomes extra critical of cars from rest of the world.

I drove this car , car has real good power and good for off-road drive only disadvantage I see is the seat is not having tight support

Finally, I've been waiting for this model since the 3door launched in Japan. This is It the Holy Grail

Suzuki’s 4x4 all wheel drive system (all grip) is good no doubt about that. That’s why Indian Armed Forces have shown interest for military purpose use as earlier they had gypsy. But they should launch 1.5 KC series engine with 2 wheel drive which will not only increase fuel efficiency but also will be more affordable everyone is not going to use 4x4 ⚡️💯

I really love what Suzuki has done with the Jimny, but one question, are the driving characteristics the same when it's fully loaded, especially in it's off-road capabilities given the limited power that it has at disposal.

Maruti Suzuki needs to stop the Rear Seat Belt Reminder if they cannot cough up the dough to add weight sensors in the Rear. Most owners will simply keep the seat belt buckled in to avoid the beeping which does zilch for safety.

the 1.5 I4 needs a performance air filter sport exhaust & the suspension could do with a proper 2.0 in. suspension lift & 33.0 in. A/T tyres . . . that should give the Jimny a 26.5° deg break over angle at the very least, if not more . . . SUZUKI should launch the 3-Dr Jimny as well . . .

Why are they not launching the 3-door version also? after that is also made in the same plant in India.

Nice review, very honest and entertaining as well.

There is something about the design of the Jimny, feels more complete, unlike the Thar which feels boxy. Love this vehicle 💯

4 speed automatic. What was maruti thinking???

Content of the video is really very good. Thank you for that. But PLEASE STOP the use of Maruti henceforth. All you youtube influencers know very well that MSIL is a fully owned (100%) subsidiary of Suzuki, Japan & its not a true Indian company anymore like Tata or Mahindra, Indian Govt also sold all their remaining shares to Suzuki Motors. But still all of you keep using the name to keep its relevance in India...WHY ? Dont you know for a fact that Japan Auto makers think Indians dont deserve their better cars with better safety & features ? When will you people wake up on this fact ? This is the first company to say we dont agree to the safety standards Govt of India imposed because it will hit their margins & also said they wont crash test their cars sold in India. Are you guys not Indian to not call out this bluff ??? Or are they paying to keep parroting Maruti Maruti ???

I liked your review more than the car the car in not that capable specially against models like scorpio N.

Lovely review. Great job by presenter, wonderful camera work - the intro is superb. The best review.

Wow 🔥🔥🔥..... Jimny will be the best option when it come to off-road in small and narrow road especially in Hilly area because of the size(Small size )..... While thar is beautiful but little bit bigger and bulky.....

I think it's important to also test fully loaded with all seats taken. And luggage. I think the AC, handling and composure will completely change.

Nik's Best In-Depth Review till date i have seen. !🥰

Can't wait to see people fitting CNG in Jimny 😶

The roads seem like from some foreign country... Nice video... I am a sedan guy, but thought, let's wait for real suv instead of those fake ones, people now a days are buying, but think will give it a Miss and go for sedan...

Thank you Nikhil for an excellent review! I'm head over heels in love with this car! The 5 door would be perfect for me... But sadly the Jimny can never go on sale in Europe due to the old engine and its high emissions. I simply can't understand why Suzuki doesn't make a more modern engine available for the Jimny. It doesn't make sense... Does anybody know the reason?

Excellent review.Thank you Autocar India.

Now thats called a complete car review, for a most awaited car for commons.Thank you autocar, never undemines your viweres.

Amazing off road capability. Awesome Video sir. While i see the body roll movement of Nikhil ji it seems like travelling in bullock cart.

For all practical purposes (given 99.9999% of us don't actually do hard core off-roading), wonder if the Grand Vitara 4WD All Grip will be the better option...

Today i have test drive this jimny in kolhapur this is unbelievable performance with stock tyres i was shocked how this is possible...outstanding performance.. .....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ engine 5/5 Body5/5 Performance 5/5 Value for money 5/4 Safety 5/5

Will be a good taxi for tough hill stations to ferry 3.. Capable offroader at the lowest money but thats it..

Bring a video in which both the gypsy and Jimny off-road together

its nice to see that you did the shooting near my home and in my hometown please let me know when you will come next time

Suzuki Jimmy proved champion across the globe 💥😎

I had booked both Jimny and Thar rwd on Mar’23, here is a summary of my research since then: Jimny Pros: 1. 3-door is Off-roading beast and the same should be carried to the 5-door at least on paper. 2. 5-door is definitely better in terms of rear space, egress and digress. In case of motion sickness, one can roll the rear windows. Luggage space is also decent. Enough to carry luggage for 4 for a short 3-4 day trip. Else roof rack it. 4. Mileage is good for a 4*4 petrol, double of thar petrol. 5. India spec has 6 airbags so ideally safety rating should be higher than the 3-door (it is 3*) 6. Be prepared for insane aftermarket mods incl. body kits Cons: 1. Underpowered for tarmac riding especially if you go for higher tire profile. 2. 4 gear automatic. What!!? 3. Space is equivalent to a swift. It is 8.5 inches less wider than a thar (for context) 4. Mileage will suffer with tire upgrades (225:75 r15> profiles). Users have reported 9 kmpl or many forums 5. Current safety rating is 3*, thar just missed 5* rating, based on a technicality 6. After market body kits are going to very expensive, so be prepared for few lakhs to turn it into a mini g-wagon 7. AT with higher profiles are sort of needed to make it look aggressive cause espresso launch before Jimny really messed up the design for many indian buyers. Higher profile AT tires will impact speedometer reading, traction control, gear ratios, mileage, acceleration cause of the change in diameter and weight. This can be bothersome for many. Recommend size - 215/75 r15 (from brands with aggressive treads like Maxxis bighorn or bfgoodrich) with >= 2” lift from a known brands like old man, tough dog, ironman etc. This set-up will make driving more comfortable, car look a little more aggressive and won’t impact the above mentioned parameters so much. Rest is as per your personality. If you can live with driving it stock with same size AT tires, this car is great at 16-17 lakhs.

In order to boost sales of jimmy, maruti should add 2 small seats at the back, (foldable like it used be in scorpio or bolero) .. #WithMaruti for15 yrs

I love to see Nikhil's review 😊

Only the steering wheel is not matching the interior

Highly impractical car😭. So narrow does seems like that ignis stretch to it's limit. It's better to wait for M&M Thar 5 doors or Gorkha

Never seen Nikhil this happy. He’s gonna buy it

Autocar is back!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

*jimny is an emotion to all car lovers especially 90s kids😻🔥💯*

Any reason why Maruti gives it the K15B instead of the newer K15C engine??😢

I think it makes sense not to have bottle holders specific at drivers and for a SUV as such in case of any bumbs which may lead for bottle to come out. But yes a holder with protect would do the job.

Love your enthusiasm and kid like cheerful presentation.

Can Alpha Auto take 04 well built ( good over weight 😢) from Delhi to Manali ? There will some luggage for everyone. What i fear is the overtaking part when in mountains , please advise .

Best review of the Jimny, by Autocar. Have been waiting for this for a very long time.

u should have explained, why they have carried over k15 b ! mileage performance torque etc of k15 b and c has to be compared

It's a thorough off road suv but I'm worried about it's headlight on twisty hilly roads. I don't think the headlights beam can throw it's beam sideways for better visibility on twisty Hill roads. I think the headlights on my i10 2011 is better than Jimny's. You should have a night driving review on this

Every thing is fine..except that the power cud have been around 130 to 150 bhp for an all wheel drive off roader..105 bhp is a bit too less..

Hi, I would like to upgrade to 215/75/R15 AT from the stock tires. Would this cause any difference in the overall performance of the vehicle. Also I wanted to know that this being a new vehicle, would the wheel alignment post tire replacement be a difficult job ? I just don’t want to have any unnecessary problems on a new vehicle. Any help or suggestion is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Was waiting for Renuka to do the reviews

Gurkha and Thar are undisputed off road kings cmmon guys ... Jimny is just a toy that too a Petrol

Should have 3&5 door options for civil Engineers as abroad.

Please make a comparative video between JIMNY & MAHINDRA BOLERO NEO UNDER 4 METRES with pros & cons alongwith with your HONEST SUGGESTION

Is there a second hand/ or a old model?

The beeping of the rear seat belt warning can be mitigated by going to a wrecker and getting two buckles from any car. They are a standardised size so will fit in the locks and fool the sensors 👍

Could you please give me the link of the dealer who sells this model with 5 doors

Which is more practical Ignis or Jimny for mild off-road

How will jimny perform with loads of luggage and passengers.

Nikhil has lost weight. Nice review dude

How on earth did they manage to save 500kgs compared to the Thar...😐

zeta doesn't have Reverse camera that's morose. i have been waiting for too but a slight disappointment because of the price bar

I can feel the smile in your face for good.

The only problem is the Tyre size, 195,80R15 is too small compare to the size of the SUV, prefer 215 ,65R17 or 235 ,75R18..

If its 15 lakhs for top end.. then its a bummer.. Then the Thar looks like a beast and Diesel Thar is more powerful ❤

This Should Be Strictly Price B/W 7-10 Lakhs On Road. Anything Above 10 Lakhs Its A Deal Breaker. Underpowered and Tiny Dimension Or It's Market Will Be Reduced To Customers Looking For A Secondary Car With Boxy Looks.
