Maruti Suzuki has increased the price of its Jimny five-door lifestyle SUV by Rs 15,000 across the entire range, effective from August 2026. The revision applies uniformly to all variants, Zeta and Alpha, across manual and automatic transmissions, as well as mono-tone and dual-tone colour options.
The Jimny is now priced between Rs 12.54 lakh and Rs 14.67 lakh (ex-showroom). The SUV was launched in India over three years ago and has not received any significant update since. An electric version of the model has been spotted testing internationally, though its launch in India is considered highly unlikely.
Indian Opinion Analysis
Maruti's latest revision follows the pattern of periodic price adjustments carmakers make to offset rising input costs or commodity prices. The SUV segment remains fiercely competitive, with the Jimny positioned directly against the Mahindra Thar and the Force Gurkha. Unlike rivals that drew strong waiting lists, the Jimny has struggled to replicate the initial booking frenzy seen at launch, partly due to its five-door-only layout in a segment where two-door nostalgia still matters. Buyers should watch whether this ₹15,000 bump triggers any immediate discount push from dealers or prompts Maruti to introduce a limited-run variant to sustain showroom footfall.
