Maruti is weighing pros and cons of launching Jimny SUV in India
The off-roader is currently exported to Colombia and Peru
First batch of 184 vehicles left for Latin America last month
Middle East and African countries are also markets for the three-door SUV
Jimny is not exported to Europe due to frequent changes in regulations
Maruti aims to make India the global manufacturing hub for Jimny model
Maruti began production as Suzuki Japan could not handle surging demand
Jimny measures 3,645 mm long, 1,645 mm wide and 1,720 mm high
It’s manufactured at the plant in Manesar, Haryana
The SUV is powered by a 1.5 liter petrol engine
Jimny comes with 5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic gearbox
Jimny was first unveiled at the Auto Expo in February last year
However, Maruti was tightlipped on domestic launch
