The most capable off-roader from Maruti Suzuki, the Jimny (formerly known as the Gypsy) has made a comeback in India. To fully experience the capabilities of the Jimny and the rest of the SUVs like the Grand Vitara, Fronx and Brezza, the carmaker has introduced a series of experiential and competitive drive events called the Rock N’ Road SUV Experiences.
The initiative offers three types of experiences in the form of – Weekenders, Expeditions and the 4×4 Masters. The first two are curated drives in a short and long time format respectively while the 4×4 Masters comprises an offroad championship. It will be conducted in two phases with qualifiers organised in eight cities ending with a grand finale. The 4×4 Masters is reserved only for Jimny owners. Participants will have to bring their own vehicles to the events.
The inaugural drive of Rock N’ Road started on January 23 from Chandigarh with 14 Jimny SUVs heading towards Kaza, covering 539km in six days. The convoy will pass through Spiti Valley too. Future drives are announced on the dedicated website.
