Suzuki Jimny is a popular off-roader that has been selling in the international markets for a long time now.
Jeep Cherokee is the inspiration behind this impressively modified Suzuki Jimny. Jimny has been a popular product in various international markets since time immemorial. India is set to receive the 5-door version pretty soon which was unveiled at the Auto Expo 2023 back in January. Indian customers are price-conscious which is why Maruti Suzuki has decided to launch the more practical 5-door version instead of the more common 3-door one. The typical off-roader silhouette of the Jimny lends itself well to any sort of modifications. Here is one example.

This unique version was showcased at the Nagoya Auto Festival 2023 in Japan. It has a uniquely modified Suzuki Jimny on exhibition. One can clearly see the connections with the Jeep Cherokee XJ that was on sale in the USA from 1983 to 2001. It gained a lot of prominence in the market for close to 2 decades. Applying the modifications to the Jimny results in a rugged front section with rectangular headlamps, a tall bonnet, sporty off-road focused bumpers, flared wheel arches, a 6-slot grille and more.

On the sides, there are new alloy wheels that are able to raise the ground clearance of the Jimny by around 38 mm in the narrow version and 76 mm in the wide version. There are also modified Yokohama Mud/Terrain tyres that are off-roading focused. The bodykit is called Marvelous. Within this, there are incredible little modifications that have the capabilities to transform the entire look. It is great that people could install the body kit directly.
