Never felt so happy to subscribe to someone’s channel need this rawness and honesty more on social platforms 🌸
Thank you so much for your compliments! My first sub from a celebrity!!! I saw one of your roadies videos… it was delightful to see your self confidence and demeanour😊
"No car returns the expected mileage when it is brand new" ... 90% of the people who buy a new vehicle forget this aspect and start complaining about fuel efficiency. Nobody has the patience to complete the running in period.
Thank you Sir for reiterating that aspect 😃
Thank you for endorsing my comments, like you said "no patience" but in this case the "Patience really pays" - those you can be patient will reap big benefits for years to come. Cheers.
@@handsonwithbabbar this was an eye opener for me, all the reviews I saw mentioned poor mileage on their Jimny and none has mentioned this, at least on what I have watched ever since the 3 door got released, subbed and will be watching your other videos
Thoroughly enjoyed both the jimny videos as a car lover. None of the marketing BS and very plain and straightforward. Keep up the good work, have also subscribed 👍
Thank you so much for saying that, it means a lot! Gratitude for the encouragement and the sub. Cheers😊

Very interesting reviews. Thanks
Glad you like them! Thank you so much for your encouragement! 😊
Dear Sir, Greetings to you.
Your Audio feed and conversations are like a General leading his Brigade of young men.
Enlightenment!
I was always keen on getting the Gypsy 4x4 King
We were on OPS platform.
Kashmir.
Always wanted to get a spanking New Suzuki Gypsy King.
Kind regards
Thank you for your Gener(al)ous comments 😁. I am also one of those, who kept salivating at the Gypsy from the sidelines but didn't have the conviction to take it to fruition and then it became history! However, owning the Jimny is more that making up for the lost time and opportunity - at least that's how i like to think of it😉. Come join the Jimny tribe, if it fits in your lifestyle, you will enjoy it! Thanks again for watching and engaging, cheers! 👍
All the best with IBEX
My friend is planning to give in his toyota urban cruiser 22 model and go in for a fronx
Has now changed his mind
Post seeing your lovely videos with IBEX
Haha..thats music to my ears😊 and please convey my compliments to your friend on his brilliant decision and well in time! What's his name, please ask him to share his experience once he has his Jimny.
Thank you for your kind compliments and the best wishes for the IBEX, really appreciate it, Cheers 👍
Great initiative... words of wisdom...looking forward for more knowledgeable videos and insights... Keep it coming🙌🙏🙂
Thank you so much for your kind words - knowledge grows by sharing is my belief, just doing my two bits through this wonderful platform of YT. More coming soon, i promise 😊
Thank you sir! for providing insight and intricate information on Jymny
My pleasure! i am so glad i could help 👍😊
Very nice, clean, professional presentation. i like these videos
Thanks so much for your very objective and candid feedback, these are special! Cheers 😊
Having booked a Thar recently, I loved this video, especially the talks around running in. I also read a well put together post on caring for turbo engines. Would be great if you could make a video around that topic as well.
Thank you for your Compliments, appreciate it. 😊 I have made a note of your request, thanks,,, who knows it may just happen! A request- Can you please share the link to turbo engine post in the reply. cheers 👍
Well said sir!! Only after the run in period with conditional drive anything could be disclosed and discussed. I will wait for ua wonderful review of the IBEX. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much for validating my review, appreciate it! More coming soon, stay tuned 😊
Very good vedio !! Thanks
Thank you too! Cheers 😊
Legends like you should hold the realms of automobile reviews.
Awwwwwww… gee thanks, I am blushing ☺️!
Thank you sir...
You are very Welcome sir! More coming soon, please stay tuned 😊
like minded people! at last. Dada, you made me to subscribe your channel. thanks. i used to feel the same when i am using my alto lxi (thinking to buy jimny). felt the same. thanks for letting me to remember my life
Thanks Reddy Garu 😊, I am so glad that you enjoyed the review and that it brought back some happy memories for you. Thank you for the Sub, cheers 👍
@@handsonwithbabbar, Dada; what is your opinion or comment on earlier Bolero model( because I have a passion to buy it, but later moved to Jimny). I had gone through u r profile, feeling seeing my self in mirror😊
Jimny any day Reddy Garu! Bolero while a great car is an old setup, it will require a lot of mods and upgrades to make it as drivable and pleasurable as the Jimny… even then it will still not have the finesse and the character that a factory fitted car has … rest passion is passion - there is not reasoning or agriment about that 😀, cheers and good luck 👍🏽
Very practical
Thank You 😊
Thanks for the dedicated video and picking up on these crucial points that have been missed by other vloggers. Also are you planning any mods? If yes, what would they're gonna be?
Thank you for your kind comments, appreciate it! Not planning any mods...i like it stock, as i feel, that is the true spirit of any car 😊
Very good & informative video..❤
Glad you liked it! Thank you and keep watching this space for more 😊
Make a video on how to add storage accessories to jimny!
Best accessories on the internet for jimny.
👍🏽
Nice info about wear n tear of first 3k kms...Thanks uncle
Thank you so much for your appreciation, I am glad you liked it 😊
Great explanation sir 👏🏻
Hoping to see touring or camping reviews if possible.
Thank you so much, let's see how this IBEX journey pans out, will certainly be doing some exciting stuff with it in the future - great suggestion, appreciate it 😊
excellent expression video for Jimny.
Thank you very much! Appreciate it😊
Very good commentary Sir.
Thank you so much for your positive feedback 😊
You sir, are a gem 💎 God bless you 🙏 please continue sharing the awesome content that is such a breath of freshness among the masses of charlatans reviewing Jimnies on UA-cam ❤
Dear Sir, thank you so much for your very generous comments, really appreciate it! 😊 I will try my best to live up to this reputation, keep watching, cheers 👍
dear sir , lovely review .. . looking forward to more of your reviews .... getting my jimny tommorow ....have named it TOMMOROWLANDER ... ALL THE BEST AHEAD SIR , BEST WISHES AMIT
Rock on with the TOMMOROWLANDER tomorrow 😎. many congratulations and many happy miles and smiles on your new Jimny. Thank you for your encouragement, Cheers😊
Nice explanation Sir keep going👍👍👍
I promise i will as long as you keep watching Thomas 😊. Thank you so much for your comments!
Loved the feedbacks..One question from my side . Do you reccommend upgrade to AT tyres for taking this car in snow conditions like winter spiti ? yes or no both with their justifications please.. Also will upgrading to 215 or 225 give a better feel instead of the 195?. Thanks in advance
Sir u r rockstar. 🎉
Brother you are very kind and you just made my day 😊 Thank you.
Frankly and honest review
Thanks brother, appreciate it 👍
What you say is partially correct but new age engines are perfectly machined to exacting standards…don’t require a lot of running in 😊 could not resist to try out my brand new Jimny on an empty stretch of land just after delivery…it shows a fuel average of 8 kmpl
There are all schools of thought on the running in bit! However I am aware that even high precision German cars recommend a running in of 1500 kms… it’s great that you are enjoying your Jim, cheers and good luck!
Greetings from Kashmir. Liked your video , very honest and straight . This vehicle would perfectly suit hills and valleys of kashmir . What's your view?
Arrey, of course, you (J&K) have the biggest and the best mountain goat in the world, "The Markhor" - The Jimny will indeed feel at home in the hills of Kashmir! Planning to get one soon? I would like to bring "The Ibex" to Kashmir some day! Thank you so much for your greetings and compliments from the lovely land of Kashmir, I have fond memories from there 😊. Cheers!
good tips on break-in period. Very important. Shame to see people ragging these cars.
Thank you for your endorsement, really appreciate it 😊.
Good video with relevant and to-the-point details. How are the lights? Please share your experience about night drive/s done, if any. Thanks.
Thank you for the encouragement! LED headlights in the Alpha spec are brilliant - both the low and high beams have a good throw and illumination! These, while bright, are not harsh like some of the annoying ultra bright blue / white lights that you see in some of the new cars! The Zeta model has Halogen lamps but i have no experience of Halogens on the Jimny. hope this helps,
Excellent video 🌿Tomorrow I will take the delivery of my dream car Jimny .Want to learn more things as I drive Maruti 800 since last 22 years.If you plan any coaching sessions pls let me know 🙏
First of all thank you for your compliment and Best of luck for getting your Jimny 🙌. You do not need any coaching sessions my friend, you are a pro at driving Maruti cars 😊. It's a big upgrade in all manners from the 800 and you will thoroughly enjoy it! If, however, you do have any questions please reach out and i will try to help you. I hope you have seen both the videos i made on the Jimny. I wish you and your family many happy miles on your superb new ride 👍.
Sir nice info, do we have any internal space accessories for other stuff like bottle or phone placement and any front arm rest ?
Thanks buddy! i shared the headrest hooks in my video yesterday, i am looking for other good accessories, will definitely share, when i find them, cheers 👍
Great video, in particular for the run-in point ! No one is really addressing this, but it was on my mind too. A couple of further questions on this:
1) is it advisable to take it on a 700km drive in the first couple of days of the new car ? It will be a 12-15 hour journey. It will have 2-3 pit stops for fuel and food. Will these 2-3 stops of 20-30minutes each suffice ? Whats your take on this - how to tackle this ?
2) perhaps it may be advisable to remember to disengage the auto start/stop when turning on the car itself. But surely the car manufacturer has tested that to be efficient from the get go. But it just seems to feel it may be a good idea to disengage that feature each time when starting. What do you say ?
3) I guess the company gives a paper card in the car informing about the terrains to use for 4WD. Very important to note to NOT use 4WD on normal dry roads, unless it is raining heavily or so. Always be in 2WD (unless the appropriate terrain calls for it). Whats your take on this ? A company called APIO sells thin aluminium plates with this mentioned, it has a glue strip at the back and can be pasted in any place in the car to refer to because sometimes we forget. This is probably the most important point to note because many people will get excited with 4WD and run into problems.
Hi, Thank you for your compliments and endorsing my views. Really appreciate it!😊
1. I don't see a problem, if you want to take it on a long drive as long as you are mindful of the Run-in limitations! If you follow it diligently, then the pitstops you have mentioned are enough, these are performance machines - you respect them, and they will serve you well. Before you start, do check all engine fluids (engine should be cold and not started for the day yet for best results) engine oil, brake fluid, coolant and washer fluid are topped up to the recommended level. While driving keep an eye on the instrument cluster and watch out for engine temp and any other malfunction lights. Do the same exercise of checking fluids the next morning at the destination (basically every morning, while on the trip) on a cold engine and see if there are no surprises etc. watvh out for leaks below the car too! If there is a manufacturing defect, it will 90% surface during the running-in period so just be watchful and aware.
Yes, I disengage auto start-stop almost every time i am driving, that is why i thought the system should have a memory of the user preference and just be in the position it was last, simple!
Haha ... you will not forget the 4X4 engagement rules if you love your Jimny, don't worry about it, unless you want to put it there for pure aesthetic value.
Good luck, let me know how it goes 👍, cheers.
Very nicely covered. I will buy the gymny when there is good discounts 😉 to compensate the overpricing..
Thank you so much and good luck on your discount strategy 😊
What about now
Nice one ! MSL certainly could have equipped the 5 door with a 47-50 litre fuel tank. Just some cheeky cost cutting….in what is certainly not a budget peoples car.
Thank you! The tank is a good size at 40 Liters, i feel. On a mileage of 14 kpl average (on the safe side, the co. claims much more) that is a 550 plus km range on a tankful, it's like refueling it only once between Delhi and Ahmedabad, it's quite good i think plus the greatest advantage of this car is that it's a light & narrow 4X4 - it can do all those things that its bulkier friends cannot and for that they have optimized a lot of things but it's this package Jimny that we like 😊. Just my two bits, cheers👍
The fuel tank capacity most certainly not a deal breaker. Many thanks for your reply.
VERY GOOD VIDEO.. HOWEVER RUNNING IN FOR MODERN CARS IS NOT REQUIRED. ENGINES HAVE BEEN RUN IN THE FACTORY.
Thank you so much for your compliments! You are right, some car companies' run-in their engines in the factory but definitely not all, so we don't know which ones especially with car companies now dealing with 10-12 months of waiting periods on their cars, i will not be surprised if this is one step they are truncating or eliminating completely esp. becoz it costs them time and money!!
Secondly, the engines are run-in independently at the factory, that is without any load attached to them, you will agree that no car manufacturer is running in cars for 2-3000 Kms after they are assembled - that's an additional expense for them! Therefore, since the engine is now hitched to the car, it is carrying 2-4 times its own weight and therefore it needs to be run-in in the car and is critical!! Hope that helps! Cheers!👍
Hello Babbar greetings from the West Indies! Thank you for your great videos, I immediately subscribed. I was a proud owner of a 2021 3 door Jimny GLX (=the name of the top trim here in Barbados) A/T until a few weeks ago when I sold it because our family has grown. I am hoping that our Suzuki dealership here will import the 5 door soon. We have had Suzuki Maruti products in the past such as the Swift DZire. I think the 5 door Jimny would sell like hotcakes in the Caribbean. Can you please tell me if there are child seat anchor points in the back seats of The Ibex?
Hi, thank you for your lovely compliments and please accept reciprocal good wishes from India 🙏. Thank you for sharing about your beloved Jimny, it’s always nice to hear about Ibex’s relatives across the world, it’s great car and I am so glad they finally launched it in india! I hope the 5 door comes to the Caribbean soon so that you can get yours quickly! To answer your question, the Ibex came with proper isofix points on both the rear seats 😊, I guess congratulations are in order for the new guest😍, thanks for subscribing, cheers 🍻
@@handsonwithbabbarthank you so much for your kind reply! My dealership has informed me that the 🇮🇳 Indian-made 5 door Jimny is indeed heading this way in 2024. I hope to be a launch customer. All the best
Sir what is an idle run in period for k15b engine according to you
great video as previous one.
my question is...how much capable the jimmy is in crawling(4L without using throttle) specially on hills?
Thank you so much, means a lot! I guess we will both find out together, after the running in of The IBEX 😊
@@handsonwithbabbarIndeed
Sir. You are superb. Your videos are really very informative and truly a delight to watch. How do you find Jimny automatic driving in terms of comfort level. My wife drives an Honda Brio automatic for short distance travels within city. She learnt driving on this Honda Brio and only know how to drive an automatic. Will it be easy for her to switch to Jimny automatic. In this case, I can look at making it my second car (occasional family trips, mostly driven by my wife)
Thank you for your compliments, sir, truly appreciate it! Jimny automatic is a just brilliant, I am loving driving it! If your wife is already driving a Brio Automatic, i don't see any problem in her switching to the Jimny seamlessly, go for it! which car do you drive incidentally? Cheers👍
@@handsonwithbabbar Thanks. I have Suzuki Brezza Diesel which has run 6 years already. I also don't drive much so don't really gain from fuel efficiency of a diesel car. The current resale price is good so I was thinking of replacing it with a new petrol vehicle. However, it is depreciating fast and If I sell it after 3 years, I will get a much lower resale price (or it will go in scrap). I booked a Jimny automatic 4 months back and am now thinking of either replacing it with my Honda Brio Petrol (10 years old) or replacing it with Brezza diesel (6 Yrs+ old). Another option is to replace Brezza with a Petrol Honda Elevate/Kushaq/Kia facelist/Creta facelift etc.
Looks like you should keep the Brio and replace the Brezza with Jimny 😊. You are the boss...
👏👏
😊😊
Although you mentioned you aren’t going to modify your car but Are you planning to get some of the below accessories like
LED tail lights
Rear defogger cable cover. - I watched several international videos where this accessory is highly recommended as the defogger cable is without any protection and likely to get damaged due to loading /unloading.
Roof carriage
Arnrest
Body decals
Also space management requires a lot of work in this car. Any land for it ?
Hi, Thanks for watching and reaching out! I am not anti-mods or against adding accessories! I however want to only make changes that improve my experience, convenience or the life of "The Ibex" 😊. Use that filter and the tail lights are just fine and look good too! why do we need to change to some fancy lights costing 15K and you are not even going to be looking at them 😁. Tyres i have already said give a sweet ride, i saw a video yesterday where they have changed the Tyres to 235/70/r15 and now complaining about vibration and rough handing but in the same breath said but they look great, i rest my case!
I am going to change cabin lights to LED, put the wire protectors as you rightly called out, add cubby holes in the handles, floor tray around the gear shift and even the arm rests but i will wait until this rage and race for Mods & accessories cools down and the prices become reasonable - e.g. the wire protectors are 1500-2000 for those 2 bits of plastic - and similarly arm rest is 5K plus ...i am in no hurry, everyone is out to milk this madness and make a fast buck, i will wait! Decals don't know haven't found any that i liked may be customize some... roof carrier if i need it i will, but given my use and current family scenario don't see it happening any time soon. Hope that helps, cheers 👍
@@handsonwithbabbar thanks for your prompt response. I agree to your arguments. Agree about waiting the current mania surrounding the accessory for this car.
I was also following this car from 2018 when this was launched internationally. Fan of the Gypsy and Jeep. Happy adventuring.
Hi thanks for doing these vids, your fuel economy is about on par for a jimny, the offical tests for fuel economy is just a bull crap lab test that no vechicle will make, but it is useful for comparing between different vechicles.
Thanks… glad that you appreciate them, cheers 👍🏽
Sir any plans of tyre change in future after break in period
I don't think I will till i have seen what all it can do on the stock tyres...Will keep you posted through the videos. Cheers 👍
Sir, I had problems with the brakes. Are they working fine. Ans sudden brake is not working good on road. Can you please share your view..
Answered in the previous question, thanks.
I have actually been used to driving the Octavia VRS so I think I saw ur video just at the nick of time and have decided to follow your running in tips to the dot. Initially the adrenalin rush used to play its role but I decided it’s time to calm down so it’s NO above 3000rpm😀
Sir a query….the micro hybrid seems to restart automatically at the infamous signal’s of Bangalore when AC is on…is this a feature or an alarm? Don’t know if others have come across the situation.
The other issue is having to down the windows frequently to answer curious people at signals😂😂😂
I am glad you found the video in time 😊, congrats on your new ride!
Yes the micro hybrid, though useless, is smart tech, when it sees the battery getting strained on auto off, it will start the car even if you are still stationary, to preserve the battery charge / power. My problem is that it cuts off very soon even on short braking stops!
I am sure you are thoroughly enjoying your last problem of having to answer Jimny questions from other road users 😃, enjoy!
@@handsonwithbabbar 😂😂
what can you say sir about those fellow Jimny's who upgraded their tires into wider and bulky ones?
Just that its not really required - you tell me who will you trust? The company that has invested millions of dollars on engineering and designing a solid product and chosen its tyres carefully and tested them for thousands of Kms or a local tyre or modification shop that is pushing its products and services on a car they have no experience with, since it's just been launched!!! They are just experimenting AT YOUR COST - some of it will work and most will not - i rest my case.
@@handsonwithbabbar agreed but at the same time all terrain (AT) tyre is recommended for a proper off roading vehicle of Jimny's stature . what do you say as an experienced and avid off road lover ?
@prosenjitbanerjee9634 go for the AT tires. No harm until you upsize in limited manner. Off road vehicles are designed and built with higher FOS (Factor of Safety)
@@mt_0712 i know 2-3 % upsizing of tyres are fine but i never mentioned about upsizing, i just mentioned about AT tires which is required for better off roading instead of factory fitted HT tyres that we are getting here in Kolkata as stock tyres
@prosenjitbanerjee9634 I don't see any harm there using AT tires. Just you won't get mileage and highway stability at high speed (no one can complain since it is off road special). As tread pattern, weight changes.
One question. Can we take the Jimny in deep water?
Define deep, but short answer not very deep as the Jimny doesn't have the snorkel setup as standard, but you should see some of the Jimny river crossing videos on YT, it does well! There is an inbuilt provision for fitting an after-market snorkel if one wants, Cheers 👍
Iam about to buy jimny AT. During PDI i noticed that 4wd low transfer gear was not disengaging , after multiple tries on service advisor told me that one does not need to push the lever down for disengaging 4wd low . But I still feel that engaging 4 wd low need lot of effort. Can u tell me what precautions I should take for engaging and disengaging 4wd low

ua-cam.com/video/7sf7l9aezdY/v-deo.html
Please watch this video, all your answers are here.
Yes you needn’t press the level for disengaging low however it needs to be pressed down to engage 4L. Engaging 4L will be a lil more effort than engaging 4H it is supposed to be like that, that is why it’s required to be pressed to engage so that it does not engage unintentionally when you are trying to engage 4H. Sometimes there is resistance if the pre-conditions explained in the video are not met fully, however you will get used to it after a few times. Good luck 👍🏻
@@handsonwithbabbar the problem iam facing is that I need to apply lot of force to disingage 4 L to 4 H /2H. By force I mean I have to use both my hands and really push hard. I keep the gear leaver at N while doing this. What could be the reason. Should I be worried?
Having to use both hands seems excessive, get it checked at your next service.
Hi, can you please make a video on different speeds and rpm in 4th gear?? In 80kph speed in 4th gear whats the engine rpm and in 100kph in 4th gear what's the engine rpm?? I do lot of highway driving and this information would help me a lot as I drive almost 35k kms per year,further more is it e20 petrol compatible??.... Thanks a lot in advance
Thanks a lot for your engagement. This car is e20 petrol compatible. For your other request at different RPM speeds, mine is an automatic so i can't really determine exactly which gear is engaged when! Also, there are videos out there that cover the info you need in a manual transmission set-up...hope that helps, cheers 👍
What care we should taken If i learn car driving with jimny car.
Sir, please see the video again, my advice to you is that take driving lessons from a proper driving school, in their car and if you have a Maruti Suzuki Driving School near you, that is the best! They have customized driving programs for various levels of proficiency depending on your skill. In short, please learn driving on some older car, not your new Jimny in your best interest. All the best 👍
Sir, kindly help me know how to turn on the DRLs on Jimny??
I am assuming you have the Alpha as the Zeta does not have DRLs. In the Alpha, its with the headlight stalk switch on the steering wheel, the Positions are OFF > AUTO > DRLs > HEADLIGHTS. Hope that helps, cheers 👍
@@handsonwithbabbar thank you for sharing the information sir!
Hi my question is that I do potholes of gurugram but no serious off road and will prob never use the 4x4. I do highways and a bit of mountains. I drive a Creta presently. Should I buy this as per my driving profile?
This car loves to eat potholes and savors them too😊. based on the info you have shared, i am tempted to say that this car fits your profile, but you do need to consider other relevant things in your life and take an informed decision - like daily driving distance, your current car is a petrol or a diesel and the age of that car - are you replacing it or adding this one to your fleet, your family size etc. etc. Hope that helps, cheers 👍
@@handsonwithbabbar Thanks for the prompt reply sir! I love the Jimny, its size fits my family size etc. The concern was that i would prob never do the 4x4 so was wondering if i should change my petrol creta with this because it seems overdesigned for me. Annd also is Jimny a steady everyday drive?
Jimny is a brilliant every day car as well, compact yet competent! Cheers 🍻
Sir aap to gaadi kaise chalate hai wo batane lagg gaye😂
Sir, gaadi chalana nahi, New gaadi dhyan say chalana - aaj kal koi janata hi nahi hai running in kay baare mein. Cheers👍
Sir ,suggest me tyre upgrad
Dipak bhai, i am not planning on upgrading currently and feel it's not required currently - the stock tyres are very capable but if you must, then I have heard that the 215/75/R15 is the best fit without any modifications. All the best.
@@handsonwithbabbar thanks, aap kis City se ho
Gurgaon, cheers!
The range in the jimny is not being shown. Its just ….. in range part
Hi, i am sorry i couldn't comprehend your comment, can you please elaborate what "range" are you referring to?
What's your height sir?
Mine is 6'3, will i be comfortable in this car
Hey, the best way to find out is go to the nearest Nexa showroom and sit in a display car. My guess is, you will be fine but you must take a test drive and find out yourself. I am around 5'10" if that helps!
I am 6'3'', on the leaner side, was absolutely comfortable sitting in the Jimny will ample headroom. The seat height adjust does help and Suzuki has done a brilliant packaging.
@@carcrazyraj my body frame is a bit big.
But still I will give a shot,
Because global product, and reliable.
But the water wading is a let down.
Don't know how much will snorkel help.
@@carcrazyraj by the way look at the little D aero kit for jimny
Excellent practical video.
What is the weight bearing capacity of the Jimny, as we carry a lot of stuff while on vacation and we also have plan for camping. We are a family of four (2 adults and 2 kids) and if you can tell me the torque multification in 4 Low. Looking forward for the off roading reviews where we can see how BLD works and how much it is useful in tricky situations.
Thank you so much for your comments and engagement on the video, really appreciate it! The recommended weight bearing capacity of a non-modified Jimny is between 335-350 kgs, I reckon with a 5-7% safe tolerance. - you can do the maths as per your family and see how much extra can you carry? I don't know the torque multiplication at 4L, however you can see multiple videos of the Jimny BLD in action from the MS launch event at Dehradun and much more, it works and works well too! Wish you good luck with your family adventures, keep watching. Cheers! 😊
@@handsonwithbabbar Thank you so much. From a practical point of view 4 adults with normal to moderate build is 300 Kgs (75Kg each) and then with ovelanding setup it will cross the 350 limit. Is it documented anywhere, can you please provide any link which states so. I am about to finalize the vehicle.
@@prosenjitbanerjee9634 just look up kerb and gross weights of the Jimny 5 door on the net and you will find your answer…there also a discussion thread on the topic in team-bhp.. good luck 👍🏽
Please send a contact to buy accessories
I haven’t put any accessories, don’t have any contact, sorry but there are many fb Jimny groups and there are dozens of people selling accessories on them, join one and explore, good luck! 👍🏽
Gurkha or Jimny? your comments please
No comparison really! Both have their respective and deserving places in the Indian SUV scenario! Both are capable and have their respective strengths and weaknessee too - it all boils down to what do you need 😊. Cheers!
@@handsonwithbabbar Got it, my concern would be performance, seating capacity for both of them. Heard BS6.2 version of Gurkha is lined up for launch this Aug 23. Planning to replace my 10yr old Scorpio with either of them. BTW thanks for the quick response. Waiting for Jimy off road vedio from your channel.
y-a-w-n
S-o-r-r-y! May be you could watch a different one, I suggest this one: ua-cam.com/video/F_lJ5Vevxy8/v-deo.html Cheers 👍🏽
Jimny is not worth more than 12 laks if u have paid more then you are screwed by suzuki 😅😅
I agree its overpriced to extent of 1-2 lacs.. Even fronx or baleno is not that range.. 😁 😜
You shouldn't have cancelled in a hurry you know....How did you like my video?
I had RDW and Petrol Thar were also booked. So I cancelled petrol thar and Jimny. I am convinced with RWD Thar Diesel Manual Top end is also cheaper than Jimny by 4 lacs. 🙋♂️
@@harnsingh2918 whats the point of booking rwd boxy un aero design there are cheaper versions with comfort and space along with ride quality.
@@Rahul-kp6wn because I m not interested in another breadbox made on wagon R platform an priced 3 times more just bec of larger wheel that u have to upgrade anyway making the car x4 times the wagon R price!! Never a duffer for a Suzuki trash cans!! Love Indian Thar that makes Jeep n Ford Shiver down their spines. Ford even leaves the contest and runs out 😁😆😂
What absolute rubbish. It’s 2023. Engines are built totally different now and run in of motors isn’t necessary.
Thank you for your rather rude comment! However, would you care to elaborate how they are built differently today that they don't need Running-in ....
@@handsonwithbabbar Rude, you have got to be joking. This is from a person recommending and giving advice on putting a third person in the rear seats sitting on a cushion with no seat belt. You have got to be joking.. Do some research on rules and modern engine oils and tolerances then hand out some professional advice. You going to kill someone and the mechanic is going to laugh.
Dear Sir, you are a bit rude. I had a new car some 6 years ago. I live in a hilly region. When new, the mileage was much lower, the engine felt tight and even hesitated at times during hard revving. After proper running in for a few thousand Kms, the engine loosened up, felt freer and mileage also increased significantly.
