Rivals: 

Maruit Jimny vs Force Gurkha

Another competitor is the Force Gurkha. It is an off-road vehicle with a larger engine and larger dimensions than the Maruti Jimny. The Gurkha is the largest vehicle in the class thanks to its larger 2.6-litre diesel engine. In addition, Gurkha is significantly larger than the other two off-road vehicles in the segment. The Jimny has more modern features and more variants than the Gurkha. It includes the option of an automatic transmission. However, the Gurkha is exclusively equipped with a manual transmission and a diesel engine. If Price is the most important consideration then the Maruti Jimny is far less expensive than the Force Gurkha.

Maruti Jimny

The Mahindra Thar is the Maruti Suzuki Jimny's primary competitor. The Maruti Jimny has two extra doors, making it more practical. The Thar's larger size gives it a more commanding presence on the road. The Thar also gives you the option to select between a 4WD or RWD drivetrain and hard or soft tops. The Jimny has more features than the Thar. It includes a larger touchscreen, wireless connectivity, and a headlamp washer. On the other hand, the Thar has bigger, more powerful, and torquey engines available. You can choose between petrol or diesel. But there is a significant price difference between the two cars, which makes the Jimny more reasonably priced.
