The Maruti Suzuki Gypsy will cease to exist after March 2019. As the Production of the Gypsy will stop in March 2019 as it will not be able to meet the new crash test norms and regulations that will come into force in April 2019.
As, Airbags and ABS will become mandatory, and the Maruti Gypsy is not capable of being fitted with this equipment. Bookings will stop by 1 December. The Gypsy is anyway being made to order and the company produces it in batches of about 100 orders, on full payment of the Rs 7 lakh odd that it costs ex-showroom.
However, it won’t carry on beyond March 2019. There were rumours of it being replaced by the Suzuki Jimny, but they haven’t been confirmed yet.
