Even though the Jimny has been around for ages, in India, it is considered the spiritual successor of the iconic Gypsy.
Here is a unique case of the iconic Maruti Gypsy and the newly launched Jimny in a Rally Livery. Now, you must’ve seen the Gypsy in many rally events throughout its lifetime. In fact, it is one of the most successful rally cars ever. As a result, you must’ve come across many Gypsy cars with such auxiliary equipment, sponsor graphics and modifications. However, we are yet to get accustomed to the newly launched Jimny in such an environment. Nonetheless, we are sure to have that pretty soon as more and more Jimnys start getting delivered. Until then, let us relish this visual in the digital realm.

What We Think
We are always enamoured by the sheer talent some of these digital automobile artists possess. Moreover, it gives us immense joy to witness a completely unique version of a regular car, particularly if it is done with such creativity and finesses. In fact, people could actually get ideas from such digital illustrations that they could use to customize their cars in real life. That is the beauty of such renditions. One could try various elements to analyse how these make the car look. This Gypsy and Jimny inter-mixing is a prime example of it.
