Maruti Jimny 5-door Likely Debut At Auto Expo 2023 – Launch Details

We reported earlier that Maruti Suzuki is preparing a long-wheelbase 5-door version of the Jimny lifestyle SUV for the Indian market. The new model will be a 5-door SUV, which is likely to be offered in 5-and 7-seat layout. MSIL is currently producing the 3-door Jimny in India for export markets.

The new 5-door Maruti Jimny production is likely to be commenced in the early 2023. The SUV is reportedly to be launched in the first quarter of FY23-24, between April to June 2023. It is expected that the Jimny 5-door SUV will make its global debut at the 2023 Auto Expo in January.

The Suzuki Jimny LWB production was earlier planned to be commenced from February 2023; however, it has been pushed to March or April due to supply constraints. Maruti Suzuki is aiming to sell over 6,000 units of the Jimny every month. The company plans to produce over 75K units in the very first year of the launch.

Maruti Suzuki will start trial production of the SUV in the next few months. The SUV will have localisation levels of up to 70 per cent, which will be increased in the future. The 5-door Jimny will be based on the existing 3-door Jimny Sierra. It will sit under 4 meters in length and will be significantly cheaper than the Mahindra Thar 3-door.

The new 2023 Suzuki Jimny 5-door will be powered by a 1.5-litre 4-cylinder, K15C petrol engine that produces 105PS and 137Nm of torque. The SUV could also receive a mild hybrid system for improved fuel efficiency. Based on the ladder frame chassis, the new Jimny 5-door will get low range transfer gear and 3-link rigid axle suspension along with Suzuki’s Allgrip Pro 4 wheel drive system. Both manual and automatic gearbox options are likely to be on offer.
