Among the two SUVs, launched at the Auto Expo- The Motor Show 2023 by Maruti Suzuki was the Jimny 5-door SUV. People in India have been eagerly waiting for this 5-door version of the Jimny for quite some time.

This is achieved with basic black shades to avoid distraction while silver inserts highlight functional elements. The dashboard and centre console have been designed to maximise the driver’s awareness of the angle of the car on undulated surfaces. Sections of the interior have a pattern resembling the body of a high-grade single lens reflex camera that conceals small scratches, suppress reflections and are easy to grip.
