Compact dimensions help you slip through heavy traffic and into small parking spaces with ease, while off the beaten track they help you squeeze between boulders and trees. Unbeaten paths that would challenge other vehicles are an absolute breeze in the Jimny. You’ll climb hills with confidence thanks to generous approach and departure angles.
In 1968, Suzuki introduced to the world the concept of rugged and lightweight 4X4s that could go anywhere and do almost anything. The world has been having heaps of fun with them ever since. Many South Africans have experienced the giant-killing capabilities of the SJ-series and Samurai. The new Jimny, now also in automatic transmission, is improved in every aspect – from the modern interpretation of the SJ-front grille to the ride, comfort and performance.
Unlike the ‘soft-roaders’ that try and compete with it, the Suzuki Jimny has all the attributes of a true 4x4. Its sturdy three section ladder frame chassis means it can handle the toughest going. The new Jimny’s body is built for off-road functionality in every detail. If two wheels diagonal from each other lose grip while you’re travelling over slippery surfaces, this feature is designed to automatically brake the slipping wheels and redistribute torque to the other two wheels.
RETRO STYLING
The ball-screw steering system provides sufficient feedback yet minimizes kickback, so that you can stay in touch with the terrain. The new Jimny also comes with a steering damper for improved on-road performance. Convenient pockets and trays keep your smartphone and gadgets within reach. Accessory sockets are close by to connect and power your devices, while the GLX also boasts an USB socket. A large, easy to grip handle provides solid support for the front passenger when entering the vehicle.
