Maruti Suzuki Jimny 5 Door Spied In Gurugram | V3Cars

A couple of days ago, we shared the images of the Jimny 5 door in Leh where it was spied undergoing test. Now, Maruti Suzuki seem to be testing the 5 door Jimny under Gurugram’s city conditions. The new spy shots reveal the front, side and rear profiles of the new Jimny 5 door.

The Maruti Suzuki Jimny 5 door looks similar to the 3 door model, albeit with 2 extra doors and a longer wheelbase. The test car is wrapped under camouflage with HR 26 registration plates. Up front, it gets LED projector headlamps that flank the 5 slot grille. The lower part of the bumper houses round fog lamps.

It is worth noting that while we do not know the tyre size of the Jimny 5 door, the size and design of alloys look similar to that of the Jimny 3 door. In the international markets, the Jimny 5 door comes with 15-inch alloy wheels wrapped with high-profile tyres. Like the front and side, the rear profile of the Jimny 5 door is identical to the Jimny 3 door thanks to the lower-set tail lights and boot-mounted spare wheel.

On the inside, we expect the Jimny 5-door to offer an updated dashboard, new seat upholstery and a bigger touchscreen infotainment system. We also expect the Jimny 5-door to retain the capable 4-wheel-drive system along with locking differentials.

In terms of powertrain, the Jimny 5-door could use the same 1.5L K15C petrol engine seen in the Jimny 3-door. It produces 102PS of power at 6000rpm and 130Nm of torque at 4000rpm. In the Jimny 3-door, this engine comes with either a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed torque converter automatic. For the Jimny 5-door, Maruti Suzuki could replace the ageing 4-speed unit with a new 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission.

Maruti Suzuki are likely to reveal the Jimny 5-door at the 2023 Auto Expo. It will rival other upcoming 5-door SUVs like the Mahindra Thar 5-door and Force Gurkha 5-door. Both the Thar 5-door and Gurkha 5-door were spied recently and could hit showrooms in 2023.

    Will the Jimny come with Hybrid version ? CNG as alternate fuel could be a welcome move.
