Maruti Suzuki has officially refreshed the Jimny lineup for 2025 with new Thunder Edition variants, bolder styling touches, and even more off-road-focused accessories, making it the most exciting year yet for this cult-favourite compact off-roader. Priced aggressively from just ₹12.74 lakh (ex-showroom), the 2025 Jimny continues to offer a ladder-frame chassis, ALLGRIP PRO selectable 4×4 system, and a go-anywhere attitude in a package that easily fits into city parking slots. Whether you’re a weekend trail warrior or simply want an SUV that stands out from the soft-roader crowd, the Jimny delivers pure off-road DNA with everyday usability like no other vehicle in its price bracket.

Design & Interiors
The 2025 Jimny retains its iconic boxy silhouette, upright windshield, round headlamps, and five-slot grille that pay homage to Suzuki’s legendary off-road heritage. New for 2025 are Thunder Edition-exclusive matte black accents, side decals, and optional accessory packs that give it an even more rugged persona. At just 3,985 mm long with a 2,250 mm wheelbase, it’s incredibly maneuverable in traffic yet offers a commanding 210 mm ground clearance and class-leading approach (37°), break-over (28°), and departure (49°) angles.
Inside, the cabin is upright and functional with hard-wearing scratch-resistant plastics built to withstand adventure. The 9-inch touchscreen sits high on the dashboard for easy reach, while the steering-mounted controls and analogue-heavy instrument cluster add retro charm. Rear passengers get decent knee room for the size, and the 208-litre boot expands to over 830 litres with seats folded flat – perfect for camping gear.
Engine & Performance
Under the clamshell bonnet sits the proven 1.5L K15B petrol engine producing 104.8 PS at 6,000 rpm and 134.2 Nm at 4,400 rpm. You can choose between a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed torque-converter automatic. The real magic, however, is the ALLGRIP PRO system with a proper dual-range transfer case (2H → 4H → 4L) and a rigid 3-link solid axle suspension at both ends – hardware you simply don’t find in any other SUV under ₹20 lakh. Tackle rocks, slush, or sand with confidence thanks to brake-limited slip differential and hill-descent control.
Mileage & Range
Despite its off-road hardware, the Jimny returns impressive real-world efficiency:
- Manual variants: 14–16 kmpl city | 17–18 kmpl highway
- Automatic variants: 13–15 kmpl city | 16–17 kmpl highway
With a 40-litre fuel tank, you can easily achieve 600+ km range on a single fill-up, making it ideal for long expeditions.
