India’s biggest motor show was finally back this year after missing its 2022 date due to Covid-19. Though the majority of car and bike brands stayed away, there was enough excitement with Indian brands taking centre stage by unveiling some exciting models and concepts. Here’s a look at the top five show-stoppers that pulled in the crowds.
Maruti Jimny
The long-awaited five-door Maruti Suzuki Jimny finally made its global debut at the Auto Expo 2023, where bookings for this iconic off-roader were opened. The Jimny is expected to go on sale in May and is aimed at the lifestyle segment which has grown by leaps and bounds post Covid-19. The Jimny comes at a time when the desire to discover the wilderness has never been stronger. This plucky 4x4 can crawl up mountains, ford rivers and conquer sand dunes, all with a smile. The boxy design and straight lines give it a retro appeal that is an intrinsic part of the Jimny’s lovable character. The lacklustre 1.5 litre 105hp engine, mated to a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed torque converter automatic gearbox may not give you the oomph you get ina Thar, but this lightweight 4x4 is shockingly capable and can go where many SUVs can’t.
