Is the Jimny worth its high price?

It's all about perspective. If you’re looking for a capable off-roader that can squeeze through tight trails that a Thar cannot, then it’s worth every penny. And Maruti is as reliable as ever.
Is the Jimny worth its high price?

It's expensive, but you're getting Jimny's global pedigree. It’s a cult classic for a reason, and we finally get it in India. That alone makes it worth it for enthusiasts.
Is the Jimny worth its high price?

I think it's overpriced considering what it gives. Yes, it's cute, and it's capable off road, but for regular use you're giving up a lot. There is not enough space and dated interiors that don’t command the price.

The pricing is a niche product. The Jimny meets that bill if you’re in hilly areas, and if you’re looking for a compact 4x4. At that price point, there are better options for everyone else.

They’re offering discounts like crazy, but the price is high. Suddenly, it becomes much more attractive with ?3 lakhs off. It’s clear that Maruti knows it’s overpriced and is adjusting.

If you're buying it as a second car for weekend adventures, that's worth it. It’s hard to justify it as a primary vehicle unless you really, really love the Jimny’s character.
The Maruti NEXA Invicto is just a rebadged Toyota, or does it have something unique to offer?
31 December 2024 08:56
It's definitely not a rebadge. That front grille and Nexa style LED DRLs give the Invicto its own identity, and Maruti has put effort into that. The trim and color schemes are different on the inside as well. Plus, many buyers also prefer a wider service network of Maruti.

So, let’s be real, it’s 90% Innova Hycross with a Maruti badge. They are mostly cosmetic and do not really deem this a separate product. Maruti is just trying to get a slice of the premium MPV pie without doing the hard work.
The Maruti NEXA Invicto is just a rebadged Toyota, or does it have something unique to offer?

I think it’s more of a mix of both. That's right, it's based on the Innova, but Maruti's pricing strategy, along with its feature packaging, makes it a compelling alternative. In particular the lower variants represent good value compared to the Toyota equivalent.

I am a Maruti fan and I am excited to see them come into this segment. The Invicto isn't revolutionary, but it does take Maruti a step closer to providing more premium products. I think we will see more differentiation in future models, just give them time.

The real question is whether Maruti can replicate in this segment the same level of reliability and service quality that Toyota has. Badge engineering is okay as long as the overall ownership experience meets the price point.
With diesel MPVs, how does the Invicto's hybrid system stack up for long distance fuel efficiency and performance?
31 December 2024 08:56
I drove both and to be honest, the Invicto’s hybrid system is impressive. Diesel is smoother than a diesel and fuel efficient, if not more so, especially in the city. It may not have the range of a diesel on highways, but the difference is not great.

Long highway runs, diesel still wins. The hybrid is great for city, but once you're cruising at high speeds, the battery advantage goes away. Diesel has that low end torque that makes for good highway overtaking plus.

Hybrid is the future, people. This isn’t just about fuel efficiency – it’s quieter, cleaner, and in the long run has lower maintenance costs. Yes, diesel may have a slight advantage on long drives, but for most customers the hybrid will be plenty good enough.

31 December 2024 08:56
As a guy who’s done a lot of long trips, I’m skeptical about the hybrid’s real world efficiency when fully laden. In these conditions, diesels have proven themselves. I would prefer to see more long term user reports before switching.

We cannot forget the environmental side either. The hybrid isn’t perfect, but it’s a step in the right direction. If there is a small trade off in highway efficiency, lower emissions and better air quality in cities is something that we should consider.
Will Maruti’s premium pricing strategy for Invicto find an audience for a brand that has been known for budget cars?
31 December 2024 08:56
Maruti is taking a big risk, I think. Maruti is synonymous with affordability, and asking people to shell out 30 lakhs for a Maruti might be a little hard. To justify that price they need to really step up their game in terms of quality and features.

They could market it right, and it could work. Many people have a huge loyal customer base for Maruti and might be looking to upgrade to a premium vehicle but from a brand they trust. Their service network is unbeatable, plus.

Maruti's image has already been changed by the Nexa brand. The Invicto may be the next step in that evolution. People will pay for it, if they can deliver a truly premium experience, badge be damned.

I'm skeptical. If you’re selling at that price point, you’re competing with premium brands that are already established. There is nothing special for Maruti to offer buyers to make them choose them over more prestigious names.
