Maruti
Maruti Suzuki is all set to shake up the Indian SUV segment once again with the return of its legendary off-roader the Jimny 2025. Known for its rugged build, compact size, and go-anywhere spirit, the Jimny has long been admired by adventure enthusiasts. Now, with the 2025 update, the SUV promises a modern driving experience without compromising its heritage.
A Blend of Tradition and Innovation
The 2025 Jimny retains its boxy, retro-inspired look that fans love. However, Maruti has refined the design with sleeker LED headlamps, a slightly reshaped grille, and new alloy wheels. The SUV now looks sharper and more aggressive while keeping its iconic appeal intact.
Built on the same ladder-frame chassis, the new Jimny continues to offer a strong foundation for off-road capability. Its short overhangs, high ground clearance, and solid axle suspension remain core features perfect for rough terrains.
Performance Upgrades
The 2025 Jimny is expected to carry an updated version of the 1.5-litre K15B petrol engine, possibly with mild hybrid technology for better fuel efficiency and lower emissions. Paired with a 5-speed manual or a 6-speed automatic transmission, the engine delivers a balanced performance both in the city and on off-road trails.
Maruti’s AllGrip Pro 4×4 system makes a return, allowing drivers to switch between 2WD, 4WD-High, and 4WD-Low modes depending on the terrain. Whether it’s rocky paths, muddy roads, or steep climbs, the Jimny is ready for action.
Interior Comfort and Features
Inside, the 2025 Jimny is no longer just about utility, it’s about comfort too. The cabin now comes with improved materials, a larger 9 inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and automatic climate control. Rear passengers will appreciate better cushioning and slightly increased space in the 5-door variant, which has become more popular in India.
Safety has also been enhanced with features such as six airbags, ABS with EBD, hill hold and hill descent control, and a more rigid body structure. ISOFIX mounts, rearview camera, and rear parking sensors come standard across variants.
Designed for the Indian Lifestyle
Maruti Suzuki understands the Indian market well, and the 5-door Jimny is a testament to that. Unlike its 3-door global version, the longer wheelbase in the Indian model offers more practicality for families and daily use. It’s compact enough for city streets, yet capable enough for weekend getaways to the mountains.
Expected Pricing and Launch
The 2025 Jimny is expected to be priced between ₹12 to ₹15 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant and features. With the rising demand for compact off-roaders, Maruti is strategically positioning the Jimny as a lifestyle vehicle for both young urban buyers and rural explorers.
The 2025 Maruti Jimny is more than just a facelift. It’s a well-thought out upgrade that brings together style, technology, and off-road prowess. Whether you’re an adventurer at heart or simply want a unique SUV for daily drives, the new Jimny is ready to carve its own trail.
