Maruti Jimny can also be seen alongside the Thar in the short clip and it is clear that it is the Thar that has the more road presence. This is mainly because of its dimensions. Mahindra Thar runs on larger 18-inch wheels whereas the Jimny uses 15-inch units. While the length of both SUVs is the same, it is the Thar that is wider and taller than the Jimny. Apart from the Thar, Jimny will be going against the Force Gurkha as well.
