Fusing Tradition And Innovation
In SRK Designs’ digital rendering, electric vehicle elements seamlessly integrate into Jimny’s design. The closed grille with vertical slats, a vibrant red “Suzuki” logo, and a subtly tweaked bumper strike a harmonious balance between traditional and futuristic aesthetics. Importantly, the off-road essence remains intact, ensuring the Jimny’s robust silhouette endures.
Electric Elegance In Blue
Embracing its electric identity, the digitally envisioned Jimny dazzles in a captivating shade of blue, complemented by black accents on the roof and body cladding. Noteworthy design modifications include rugged flap-style door handles replacing the conventional pull-up ones.

Real-world Ventures And Future Aspirations
In addition to the digital sphere, Maruti Suzuki has expanded Jimny’s reach into international markets by supplying the Middle East, Latin America, Africa, and Australia with the made-in-India Jimny 5-door variant. The current Jimny has a 1.5-litre petrol engine, a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic gearbox, and a 4×4 drivetrain.
A Glimpse Into The Electric Future
While the digital rendering offers a creative exploration of possibilities, Maruti Suzuki has teased an all-electric Jimny set to launch by FY2030. Details on powertrain specifications remain undisclosed, but the anticipation is high for an off-road heritage-inspired dual-motor AWD drivetrain. As we await this electrifying evolution, SRK Designs’ imaginative project sparks excitement, envisioning a harmonious blend of off-road capability and electric mobility.
