(are all ATs like this?) takes eons to engage and actually bring the car to a standstill.Ĥ.

Found the brakes to be really spongy in response. Smooth pickup and the gears transition fluidly. Moves forward without throttle input, and the pickup is linear and there is no surprise factor. The shifter does the job, and immediately the car is ready to roll.Ģ. The mode shifter is smooth and does not give the feel of 'gear gates'. Decent boot space, but cannot place an airport suitcase horizontally. Plastics / hard objects are tightly bolted in, and portray a sense of function over form. Overall the vehicle looks solid and well put together. Body panels are well placed, but there are some wide gaps at places.Ĩ. I guess that is why it demands a premium price.ħ. Is a unique design, and nothing like this is available on Indian roads as of now. Not sure about the off-roading mechanics, but the stock tires look good, and do the job well.Ħ. Though I did miss an arm-rest in the middle.Ĥ. Interiors are well formed, and have most of the functions. Though the stature is low, but the vehicle will hold it's place amongst many on the road.ģ.

Looks smashing in red, and has a presence. Placing 3 adults in the back will not work - maybe 2 adults + 1 child (below 10 years)Ģ. This quick takeaway on the Jimny's space and comfort is to help someone to select or drop Jimny off their new car shortlist. I understand that the Jimny isn't about space or comfort. May be a Jimny AT 2WD with 1.2L engine with sub 10L OTR price tag might be an attractive proposition but that's just my imagination Currently I'm not looking for a new car so the Jimny in its current price and 4x4 equipment felt irrelevant to me. Overall, loved the Jimny's compact footprint, superb all round visibility and looks. The narrow cabin is evident at the back seat and adding a 3rd passenger in any sense of comfort is just impossible, attached image for reference. The two-step rear seat recline is a nice touch. Me (5.6) and my friend (5.9) both of us average build checked out the back seat, once seated the leg space was good but the under thigh support was poor due to short seat base length which again felt similar to Alto K10. It felt similar length to reach the passenger door from the driver's seat just like in my Alto. The cabin width is narrow and comparable to my Alto K10. The SUV feel is evident as you try to get up and into the front seat, the front seats felt comfortable and offered great all round visibility and loved the truck like view of the entire bonnet. First look, loved the compact footprint and the timeless boxy design. A week back we happen to pass by the Nexa showroom in Chrompet (Chennai) so casually popped in to check out the Jimny for the first time, no test drives were available that time.
