    Pros & Cons

    Jimny Pros & ConseC3 Pros & Cons
    Pros
    • More practical family car with 5-door configuration as compared to Thar & Gurkha
    • The interior offers decent space for 4-adults and some small luggage
    • The retro-modern design looks good and the striking colour options make it a head-turner.
    • The lightweight and small dimensions make it easy to manoeuvre
    • The car offers many features. Such as a 9-inch touchscreen, wireless connectivity, LED headlamps, cruise control, and headlamp washer.
    • The 4X4 hardware is standard across all trims
    • The 1.5-litre NA K15B engine is fuel efficient. It also comes with the option of a smooth torque converter automatic transmission.
    • Many safety features are available. These include 6 airbags, traction control, hill-hold and hill descent control, 3-point seatbelts for all, brake-based limited-slip differential, and ESP.
    • Boot space is ample enough by 315 L on offer
    • Offers a claimed range of 315km per full charge.
    • Supports DC fast charging.
    • With DC fast charging, it goes from 10% to 80% in 55 minutes.
    • Steering offers a decent impression of what’s happening at the front wheels
    Cons
    • The 1.5-liter NA petrol engine with 103 bhp power isn't as enjoyable to drive as the engines in the Thar and Gurkha.
    • The small size doesn't give it a tough off-roader look
    • The steering isn't light; it feels firm
    • The 5-speed manual transmission has a heavy clutch
    • The footwell area is a bit cramped; tall drivers might find it uncomfortable
    • Strictly a 4-seater; fitting a 5th passenger will be difficult
    • It lacks some features like LED DRLs, TPMS, and auto wipers, among others
    • There's limited storage inside the cabin, and the boot space is only suitable for small bags
    • The car lacks essential/feel-good features.
    • It is a bit more expensive than the competition.
    • The feel and touch of materials could be improved.
