This is an extreme snow test of the Maruti Jimny and Gypsy. North India has received a fresh spell of snow. Hence, people are out with their off-roading SUVs. Maruti Jimny has been quite popular in our market since its launch. For the first time globally, the Jimny is offered in a 5-door configuration, a strategic decision driven by the Indian consumer’s emphasis on practicality over aesthetics. In contrast, the Gypsy has rightfully earned acclaim as one of the premier off-road SUVs ever produced. Its robust design and remarkable 4×4 capabilities empower it to navigate various terrains successfully. In this snow test, we witness the thrilling performance of these two vehicles.

There is barely any traction on the road due to the accumulation of snow on the roads. Also, most cars don’t have the appropriate tyres to travel in snow. Highway tyres are ill-suited for off-roading and driving in the snow. Still, on the back of experience and skills, the YouTuber is able to traverse this terrain in his Jimny, as well as Gypsy. They get stuck on multiple occasions. However, since he has a lot of friends with him, they are able to push the SUVs out of a predicament. The vlogger concludes that the Jimny performed much better than the Gypsy on this occasion. That is a great insight from someone who owns both these cars.

Author’s Note
We advise our readers to never attempt such stunts, particularly if you don’t have prior experience of driving in the snow. Many tourists get attracted to such vloggers and the way they are able to manoeuvre cars in heavy snow. But it must be understood that they have been doing this for a long time. Being born in the Himalayas, they have mad experience in driving in such conditions. Hence, you must not imitate them. Also, off-roading vehicles like the Jimny and Gypsy are made for off-roading situations. But that doesn’t warrant the owners to put them in extreme conditions without any reason all the time. Therefore, proper caution must be exercised.
