Maruti Suzuki Jimny gets over 30k bookings, launches first week of June

Maruti Suzuki Jimny, first showcased at Auto Expo 2023, is all set for its official price launch in the first week of June and has gathered over 30,000 bookings so far.

Jimny is a much-awaited model from the Maruti Suzuki camp and is likely to form a core part of its recent SUV thrust. Company officials are underlining what they claim is a very strong response for the vehicle even before the official price revelation.

Maruti Suzuki Jimny, once launched, will be sold through the Nexa retail chain of the company, which also has the likes of Grand Vitara and the recently launched Fronx as the other SUVs in its sub-portfolio.
