Jimny XC offers extensive customisation options.
What makes the Jimny truly stand out is its extensive customisation options. Giving the players a blank canvas allows them to customise anything from its appearance to mechanical components. Cosmetic upgrades range from off-road bumpers to grille designs, side steps, a diverse factory colour palette, as well as a variety of wheel and tyre options ranging from 15 to 20 inches in diameter. In true Gran Turismo fashion, players have the flexibility to fine-tune the engine, suspension, brakes, and other mechanical components, significantly enhancing the Jimny's on-track performance. Talking of powertrain, this model goes from 62 bhp to 155 bhp through modifications, although the engine swaps are not currently available in the update.
