Maruti Suzuki Jimny has always been in the talk, and in India's burgeoning automobile market has always been buzzing offering diverse range of SUVs.

This iconic off-roader has captured attention not just in India but also in international markets, making a special mark in Australia.

The SUV famed for its off-road prowess in India, known as the Maruti Suzuki Jimny, is forging a slightly different path in Australia. Marketed under the title of Suzuki Jimny XL, this variant caters specifically to Australian consumers, reflecting their market dynamics and demand.

Indeed, price plays a pivotal role in distinguishing the Indian Jimny from its Australian counterpart. While both vehicles are manufactured in India, the Jimny offered to the Australian market is tagged at a premium. This upscaling of price corresponds with the high-end modifications tailored for Aussie preferences and regulations.

The power pulsating through these machines remains consistent across continents. A robust 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine breathes life into the vehicle, lending it commendable power and torque. Nonetheless, there lies a slight divergence in the power outputs, with the Indian Jimny edging out slightly more thrust.

The Indian market enjoys diversity with two variants, Zeta and Alpha, while Australia gets a singular, all-encompassing variant in the form of the Jimny XL. The special 'Thunder Edition' in India adds a touch of exclusivity, offering a limited edition experience at an enticing price point.

Jimny's aesthetic appeal is captured through a wide colour palette, with both markets offering single and dual-tone options. The subtle distinction in paint shades aligns with the geographical flavours and consumer desires of each territory.

In India, the launch price for the Jimny begins at a competitive Rs 12.74 lakh, a figure diligently calculated to accommodate the economic spectrum of Indian buyers. Contrarily, the Jimny XL prices in Australia hover around the Rs 19-20 lakh mark when converted to Indian Rupees.
