Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Ignis
- Healthy 180mm ground clearance lets you tackle a bit of rough roads.
- Ample cabin space for four occupants. Healthy amount of headroom and legroom on offer.
- High seating position. Gives a commanding view of the road ahead.
Maruti Jimny
- Looks quirky with its upright stance, compact dimensions and fun colours
- Spacious for four people
- Ride comfort is well-tuned for city duties despite being a capable off-roader
- Lightweight and amateur-friendly off-roader that'll keep seasoned off-road drivers happy too
- Boot space is usable for suitcases even with all seats up

Maruti Ignis
- Quality of plastic used inside the cabin are slightly hard. The light white colour is likely to get dirt easily too.
- Centre console of mid-spec variants (without touchscreen) looks a bit awkward.
Maruti Jimny
- Lacks cabin practicality like storage spaces and bottle holders
- Engine performance is underwhelming with a full load
