Maruti Suzuki India Limited has announced a major milestone for the Jimny 5-door, with cumulative exports from India exceeding 100,000 units. The export journey began in 2023, shortly after the model’s debut in India. Manufactured exclusively in India, the Jimny 5-door has gained popularity across more than 100 countries, including key markets like Japan, Mexico, and Australia.
The SUV’s launch in Japan in January 2025 under the name “Jimny Nomade” received an overwhelming response, with orders surpassing 50,000 within days, highlighting its strong appeal in one of the world’s most discerning and quality-focused automotive markets.
At its core, the Jimny 5-door is built for performance, combining a ladder-frame chassis with Suzuki’s proven ALLGRIP PRO (4WD), offering superior off-road dynamics and stability. Powered by a 1.5-litre petrol engine, it embodies a balance of durability, simplicity and dependable performance, traits that appeal to both rugged terrain drivers and global customers attuned to quality and functionality.
Speaking on the milestone, Mr. Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO, Maruti Suzuki India Limited said, “The Jimny has over half a century of heritage, globally. Jimny 5-door crossing 1 lakh export mark is a proud achievement for Maruti Suzuki. We are deeply thankful to customers around the world for their trust in this acclaimed SUV. Jimny’s strong off-road DNA, reliable performance and uncompromising quality have earned admiration in over 100 countries.”
He added, “The Jimny, along with 16 other models exported by Maruti Suzuki, stands as a shining example of ‘Make in India for the World’. The year-on-year rise in the Company’s exports reflects the love and confidence of customers in our products and highlights India’s rise as a hub for world-class automobile manufacturing.”
