Pros & Cons

Jimny Pros & Cons	Carens Clavis 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.	Looks more mature and SUV-like compared to the Carens The interior has become more premium and offers good appeal It continues to provide the same practical and comfortable cabin experience Loaded with a plethora of features such as a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, a bigger touchscreen infotainment system, BOSE audio, and more It drives and handles well; the suspension has become plusher and more comfortable Multiple engine options are offered, with a variety of transmission choices Enhanced safety is provided with 20 ADAS Level 2 features Turbo petrol engine is now available with a 6-speed manual transmission
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 6-seater variant is only available in the top-spec trim Although the dashboard layout has been improved, it could’ve been more premium The higher variants are limited to the turbo-petrol engine only Diesel AT is available in a single variant (no diesel AT for higher variants) ADAS is limited to a single variant only Certain features are restricted to select engine and transmission options
