2017 Suzuki Jimny review - The Best Affordable 4x4? - Car Keys

[@ArthurBrownPHOTOGRAPHY]

I've got one. Bought it new in 2003 and it's done about 47,000 miles. Apart from a new clutch a couple of years ago it has only had the odd bulb and new tyres once. It is cheap to run and very reliable. Love it.

[@ur2insecure]

On this car you should enter the rear seats from the passenger side not the drivers side. As the passenger's seat moves forward when tilted, the drivers seat does not. It's a great little car i have owned one for the last 3 years. Reliable, cheap to maintain and they hold their value. It's true 4x4 car that does not cost a fortune to run. Its a little mountain goat and I love mine.

[@xEpicMarcusx]

Seen several reviews on this where the reviewer gets in the drivers side...Suzuki designed it for right hand drive markets, where tend passengers get in from the kerb side (left). The passenger seat tilts and moves forwards when the handle is pulled up, and also has a kick peddle for passenger in the rear to easily exit. Why do reviewers always say its hard to get in the back of, its no worse then any other 3 door.

[@JulesHatton]

Indeed, with the passenger seat slid forward you practically just walk in since the 4x4 is higher than a regular car... easier than many 3 door modern hatchbacks! The rear passenger area is actually a surprisingly nice place to be, very airy with those big windows and plenty of space to the sides on the shelves that exist above the rear wheels. The only caveat is rear leg space on the drivers side can be limited unless the driver is short.

[@henryrollins9177]

Jules Hatton Reviewer also forgot that the back seats vertical plane can be adjusted a little.

[@nunnyd69]

ur2insecure that’s exactly what I said. I’m 6’1” and 140kg and I can get in and out the back easily from the passenger side

[@dbswotjrwkd]

Haha mountain goat

[@MrArchie800]

I had a Jimny once and it was truly hellish to drive, generally hellish all round come to think of it, but for some strange reason I really liked it!! I traded it for a luxurious and expensive 4X4. That was years ago and I’ve moved on to be able to afford more expensive cars, but out of all the cars I’ve owned I still miss that stupid little Jimny - I even might buy another one.

[@a0ur0s]

jimny is great i have this car more than 5 years. The real reason is to go offroad and fishing. This car is not to drive more than 120 khm in motorway but is the best car and value for money to go offroad and drive in the city.

[@greenfalcon1568]

How is it on corners?

[@REN-zh2wd]

You can get further down a dirt track in a Suzuki Sierra / Jimmy with bald tyres then most kitted out four wheel drives

[@bosse641]

A simple little car. ...honest. I'd love to own one.

[@danieldaley9348]

People like you are keeping the Jimny on our roads John. Keep spreading the word ;)!

[@nokithecat]

Off Road it beats almost any other stock vehicle Its a Billy Goat with wheels ! ! !

[@sbomorse]

Personally love the Jimny. They even updated it with ESP which is impressive of a design this old.

[@wonder_walkss]

Bro lot more beautiful than 2021 model ,

[@nerradus]

The Jimny is always marked down by reviews on its speed, yet I find its the drivers in front of me that slow me down, not the Jimny's performance!

[@virendrab5649]

Had 3 of these over the last 3 years. Solid little 4x4's. They go anywhere and are very capable offroad. Just slap on some good all terrain tyres and you're good to go. Can't wait for the new version, hope it comes with a bit more power and longer gears

[@giorgosioannou4217]

1.0 litres and 125 BHP

[@hawthornhide7371]

I’ve had two Suzuki Jimny’s and driven plenty of other 4x4s, but there’s something about a Jimny, they just have character. I bought the Suzuki Vitara expecting it to be as good as the Jimny but with a slightly bigger engine but I was wrong, the Jimny really is in a league of its own.

[@jakelanglands8337]

Would tony fit into the back?!

[@kittos1943]

Good honest review by a man who knows what he is talking about. A lot of these so called presenters have no clue and don't know a back axle from a battery!

[@GdaySport]

I bought my missus one (nearly new) and we had it ten years. She absolutely loved it! Best thing in my book was it's incredible reliability:- In the time we had it, we covered 120,000 miles, and when we sold it, it still had the factory fitted clutch and exhaust (although I did re-weld the hangers). The only non-service parts needed were a radiator, a thermostat,and two brake discs. Most reliable and easy to maintain car we have ever had. Does anybody know why you can buy a diesel one in Europe but not the UK?

[@gerary]

Nissan Patrol GR 3.0 Di Turbo kit

[@GoogleUser-en9dh]

Maybe because of pollution levels

[@Hornyderp]

Damn! I love tiny cars, they are so underated

[@kittos1943]

This is the best review I have ever read on the Jimny written by someone with some common sense unlike a lot of these so-called motoring experts who talk a lot of "Bollocks". Well Done.

[@TristanDesnos]

“This infotainment system” uh, it’s a feckin stereo!

[@kennymacm3031]

[@otahu26]

You've driven to many cars.. people whom buy a truck... don't care about radio, or getting in or out.. just want reliable.. go anywhere.. Wish We had one here in North America.. !!!

[@AndyWJP]

My wife should have one on the drive when I return home tomorrow. Look forward to checking her new car out!

[@CammieGee]

Love live genuine SUV's like the Jeep Wrangler and the Suzuki Jimny.

[@jimcarlson6157]

Me too. Here in British Columbia SUVs are everywhere even though most never venture off the pavement. I have a Jeep TJ and love it. It is fabulous off road and even better with the roof and doors off, just cruising by the lake. It is way more fun than the E320 I drive most of the time.

[@DanielMcGregor]

My 2001 Jimny has been involved in 5 car crashes of varying intensity. It's getting it's 5th repair done on the 8th of January and I have no doubts that it will be still running fine until it's next mandatory inspection in december. :D Tough little SUV. ^^

[@greenfalcon1568]

How is it on taking corner

[@DanielMcGregor]

@@greenfalcon1568 Very good. Unlike the Suzuki Samurai, the Jimny has a nice low center of mass. I used to park mine at a 45 degree angle horizontaly. Just because I could. :D On a rainy day I drifted it on a old cobblestone road and it was awesome. And it was stock. Nothing modded.

[@greenfalcon1568]

@@DanielMcGregor thks mate. One more qu. How is it at 100km/h on the highway. Does it wobble?

[@DanielMcGregor]

@@greenfalcon1568 Depends on the driving conditions. On a very windy day you can feel it pushing the car. It only has a top speed of 140 km/h. It handles alright but you will have to check the wheel alignment after serious off road driving.

[@greenfalcon1568]

[@Thingkink]

I have a jimny ..lov it ..working in the mountains so its perfect

[@doctormac123]

Titanic came out in 1997. I think its great that Suzuki keep making the jimny and jeep make the wrangler proper off roaders with ladder chassis and solid front and rear axles.

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

1998 for us Brits according to google :). We agree, think they all add a little more character to the roads. Would love the Defender to come back too. We know there's a concept of it but still... C'mon Land Rover :')!

[@doctormac123]

The problem the Defender had was that is wasn't updated sooner so it lost its relevance where as jeep update the wrangler so its still current, I hope Suzuki don't fall into the that trap of not updating the Jimny.

I wish Suzuki would come back to Canada. I love my GV.

[@EugenNiedaszkowski]

I own this little guy and I like it. The only thing that I do regret is luck of factory offroad options (diff locks, bigger tires, winch).

[@timexironman100m]

Eugen Niedaszkowski ..all optional extras ..and after market..suzuki designed a cheap affordable jeep those options would have priced it out of the market it was designed for. I agree diff lockers would be great

[@bumbleo8993]

Very enjoyable review top marks to new boy..

[@ottovonostrovo1486]

I saw several of them in Africa and South America (sometimes as a Maruti ) as a vehicle that normal people can afford and can withstand the roads found outside of the cities in those continents!

[@GrahamReid34]

its really needing updated, with a diesel engine, interior etc, i'm surprised it doesnt have DRL's

[@David_H-73]

Graham Reid know what you mean ,even some focus models ( style and zetec ) ( zetec without appearance pack) don't have drl's

[@sbomorse]

milly all new cars have drl's, not necessarily LED's though

[@David_H-73]

Graham Reid yes that is why I am puzzled that they are still not on some focus models

[@jamiep61]

Great Video Review. I which there was a Full Colour Infotainment system and some soft touch materials as well

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

We agree on the infotainment system Jamie. Not sure where we would welcome the soft touch materials though, would hate taking the dog out in it and it ripping some nice leather.

[@stealth1692]

Jamie Pickles there is/was an option for a infotainment system but I couldn't get one for my 15 model so mine has a basic DAB radio not like the one in the video

This is a bit late but alibaba has Infotainment systems and loads of of bits for the Jim.

Oldest car to be sold on uk today

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

Still going strong though ;-)

[@darwenrover8910]

Nah, wouldn't that be the Mercedes G-Wagen? But yeah, the Jimny is going strong.

[@stephanjbouwer224]

I had one for 3 years......Suzuki please update it!!!! It is both charming and infuriating at the same time - charming off road, infuriating on the open road! Make no mistake, it is utterly rubbish on the highway and it is actually not that fuel efficient! My pipe dream.....slap a high power 1.6 in there and give it a traction control system that uses the brakes to mimic a diff lock for off road...sorted! But that being said...my D-Max replacement is so so sweet! never look back!!

[@timexironman100m]

J BouWa it has abs...traction control now available from 2017..does 500km to tank of fuel,depending how you use your right foot, define rubbish on highways..

[@DonutLord32]

Would love to own one of those. Be good for the yearly trips I take

[@PhotoPortion]

Is this TOP OF THE LINE Suzuki Jimny from 2017? I've seen multiple models their infotainment system is different the panel gauge totally.

[@shanjanusman9974]

It's been around for 20yrs now

[@CrazyMotorMaster]

If Suzuki sold this to the US market and called it the Samurai they would still be selling cars here.

[@phil4350]

One of the best vehicles I have owned !! Loved it I just need a second vehicle for long journeys although saying that I have driven from Yorkshire to Stranraer in it and back and good

[@oddities-whatnot]

Phil Lowe Not driven one of these, but I did regularly drive the old Suzuki SJ410 about 30 years ago. Was a bit ropey, was the gardeners car and full of mud but entertaining all the same.

[@rajannegi8883]

How is the ride in the back ? On Suzuki Gypsy they sell in India it's like sitting on horse back

[@panosa2502]

Looking forward to Jimmy 2037 review

[@adamzalabai]

Is it better than a Lada Niva?

[@deephouse733]

The body style would sell like crazy - people really want small SUVs just to go snowboarding in

[@randyrandier2664]

@ 1.40 - 1.45, now Danny is at it doing rude hand gestures

[@greathey1234]

As long as you don't regulary drive on motorways, this is great. If you go over 60 it shudders like an earthquake and there's no solution except changing the front suspension with some complex shock absorbers and anti roll bars

[@marypetrie930]

"Shudders like an earthquake" ...rubbish, its fine at 60 /70 mph!

[@turningsigns2257]

generally only shudders if yr kingpin bearings are worn... a good gen 3 stock Jimny shouldn't do that... at any speed 👍

[@kevdavis3207]

Shudders at 60??? you dont keep up with maintenance. At 60 they drive smoothe as a babys butt, on some decent roads.

Plz tell launch date in india

[@Tillerman56]

Who is feeling all day if the dashboard of the car you're driving, is feeling cheap or not? I'm alway wondering this when I hear this qualification.

[@namitnagar5340]

I live in India. This generation (3rd) was not sold in the Indian market. But the 2nd generation of the Jimny was sold to us under the name "Gypsy". But still we're waiting for the present generation of the Jimny to come to India.

[@sjcap4233]

Sorry wrong entry again, passenger seat moves all the way forward for easy access in the back, clue the manual tells you this or do you need it on your mobile to read it.

[@paulsantos914]

That's it...I'm going with the Suzuki APV

[@conleymacp]

I have a 2nd gen, a 93. Imported to the USA from Japan. Its great off road and around town but terrible on the freeway. At 65 in 5th gear, you're at 5500 revs

[@kevdavis3207]

5500 revs in 5th doing 65,???? i assume MILES PER HOUR. Mate your joking, you were in 3rd.

[@alissupercarphotographyuk3391]

i actually thought the stereo was installed by someone as soon as i saw it in the car.

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

Yeah.. So did we when we first saw it to be honest. What do you think of the Jimny as a whole though?

[@alissupercarphotographyuk3391]

Car Keys UK Its a nice car but i guess not for me as i would do motorway miles in the car mostly

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

Fair point. That's definitely not what it was made for :')!

[@alissupercarphotographyuk3391]

Car Keys UK I prefer jeeps to be honest, they can be stylish and go offroad at the same time. The range rover can too, but its pricetag is quite so large when compared to a jeep

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

If you have the budget for a Jeep then that's definitely a good call. We absolutely love just how hardcore the Wrangler is too! I think we would all love a good old Range Rover :')!

[@Tourist1967]

Overtaken by events. The new one not only looks better - and retro - but it's better equipped.

[@RedHandedKojak]

What's the ncap rating???

[@gs8282]

Jimny are quite car. Two year ago have jimny.. But old one. 2002. So I made sound proofing. 100%. All interior plastic I cove with fabric skin. I put 4 big speakers. And dvd GPS radio. Led interior. After this modes car was amazing. Silent inside. No road noise. But car was old. So I sold. And now I think to buy jimny. Good years. And make luxury interior.

[@akshatsingh1071]

compactt,toff,pricin gotta love that that accent

[@peterclarke3990]

I can’t understand the importance of getting from 0-60 in x seconds! Why does it matter? Jimmy’s aren’t made for long distance driving. They are off road vehicles that are just at home on road, providing you don’t ask it to do more than what it’s designed for. Depends what you want a Jimny for! Great little cars. Let’s face it, what ever comes out of Japan is usually pretty good!

[@nunnyd69]

The Suzuki Jimny is what it is. A small car with 4x4 capability which will get you out of a tight spot where a 2 wheel drive car would struggle or fail, such as in deep snow or muddy fields. It is not an all terrain vehicle capable of extreme adventure ‘rallying’ as some have claimed to have tried and then it is dangerous. Well frankly I’m not surprised because if trans continental rallying is your thing then the Jimny is the wrong tool for the job. As I’ve stated before, there’s no such thing as a dangerous car only an inept driver. A safe and informed driver chooses the right vehicle for the journeys they intend to make and then drives thy vehicle to within the parameters in which it was designed to operate. A policeman will tell you when asked how fast a particular car can go ‘it can go as fast as the road and weather conditions will safely allow it to go” anything more is unsafe practice. I wouldn’t choose a Jimny to cross a desert or Siberia in but for the average driver who wants a cheap little car with the added functionality of a 4x4 at the weekend or on the winter roads it’s perfect.

[@marypetrie930]

2 pensioners went round the world in a stock Jimny!

[@gregorykorvin]

Good one. I own a Suzuki Jimny 1300 JB43 (2006) since a few weeks. Love this little 4x4.. I agree with you. Very small gas tank - I do almost the same miles with a full tank on my GSXR1300R Hayabusa (2000) Gen.1!! Hehe ;-)

[@henryrollins9177]

Gregory Korvin Congrats! Take care of the front kingpin bearings, they are one of the few weak points in these lovely machines...and yeah, gas tank is really small, i live in the Patagonia and usually need to carry fuel with me because of the distances between cities here...

[@gregorykorvin]

Thank you Henry! I will check this kingpin bearings for sure because my Jimny is 175.000kms! Greetings from Marbella!

[@timexironman100m]

Gregory Korvin 500 km to a tank of fuel 40lt. Drive it at 100kph and 3k rpm is its best range, mind you i have driven it at all speeds and its consistant for 500 km even with my thule moab roof basket...oh it tends to increse its stabability in cross winds with it on...i though it would kill the mpg surprised it does not.. :)

[@timexironman100m]

Gregory Korvin yes king pins are the jimnys weak point.. 7 years of ownership on a 10 year old 65k mile jeep i have had them done twice and its never gone off road.. im not complaining just saying the one thing to watch out for and give the diffs checked and lubed.

[@benjohnson7613]

Sidekick ftw! Best part of having a sidekick on 30s is its weight lets it float around nice, and it being a 93' I can get it stuck and leave it for a day and not worry about it as much as something 2017 lol

Great off road, twitchy on road. Tax expensive unless early model.

[@CarlvsTravel]

Had a Jimny as a hire car in Iceland this January. It was awful. The windscreen would ice up on the inside, a/c and 4x4 doesn't come as standard, the gap to enter the rear seats was absolutely tiny plus it was plastic as fkkk. Yet, somehow, we did affectionately give the car a nickname and it has stuck whenever we see one on the road in the UK; 'shitbox' . The thought still leaves a smile on my face. Ahhh shitbox, you are strangely missed.

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

That gave us a good laugh here in the office :')!

[@henryrollins9177]

Carl Versus Life WTF..! 4x4 is standard in every Jimny, they have 2 solid axl ...

[@robsenz.]

dammit...just rented this thing for iceland...haha

[@ericallen4385]

Henry Rollins they obviously have no clue what their talking about!

[@timexironman100m]

Carl Versus Life ..the jeep offers selectable 4wd for conditions as needed.it does really need full time 4wd as your suggesting. My jimny does not have a/c it was an optional extra up to now ? Anyway ac zap 1/3 of engines power and being 1.3 it kills it. Defrosting of front window ? Did you not put dial to full widow demist,once engine warms up windscreen becomes clear and stays clear so you can change dial to windscreen and cabin. You can run the ac on window and have heat to cabin at same time...maybe if you learnt the heater controls first and bullshitted the jeep you would have had a better drive. The gap between front seats was never designed to allow fully grown adults or children of certain size and age to get through. Yes the jeep has lots of plastic why do you think its so reasonable to buy to keep cost down ,!,,, the rear passenger windows will mist up just like many cars as there are no vents to clear them. Mixed with the heat given off by the body and cooler air in rear you get condensation forming. Any way january in iceland what would you be doing with an a/c anyway...clearly to me you know feck all about the jimny and just wanted to knock it...the great thing about things you dont like with any vehicle is the ability to change or up grade.. my jimy is 10 years old, has 65k miles on it. Upgrades stereo to 1100 watt system, has sat nav,phone,cd and dvd and digital tuner for tv to name a few things. It has two light bars totalling 24k lumens of light power a moab thule roof rack oh and an arm rest in between the two seats which makes long journeys a doddle.it has 10 mini cams for cctv recordings around inside and out and is bog standard ...but you know what i would never sell it as it does what i want from it and thats a big smile.

D'uh...Not everyone buys new cars...I've just watched in in 2020...my brother is buying this model.

[@Xynudu]

I had one as a loan car for a week. The handling was horrible on tarmac roads when cornering into a side street or round about. It felt like the front end was kneeling under on the outside wheel. That and the short wheelbase made the whole car feel unstable when sharp turning, and on a wet road it felt like it would spin out very easily. I was disappointed with it.

[@CarKeysUKOfficial]

We agree it isn't the best car on the road. Think it has it's purpose and fulfils that purpose perfectly.

[@SpencerHHO]

xynudu what do you expect from a live axle 4x4? Try driving a y61 or older nissan patrol or 80 series landcruiser around a corner lol

[@Xynudu]

I HAVE driven and owned several live axle Toyota and Daihatsu 4x4 over the years (I have a farm) and they all drive differently. The Jimny front end feels too soft, and with the short wheel base it feels like it's tucking under when sharp cornering (round about). Maybe you should try driving one.

[@robertsanders4651]

I don't know about anyone else but I like the body roll and high up seating position. It means you can see more and I much prefer to move with the body of the car rather than in a lower car where the body stays still and you're moving across the seat round corners.

[@oddities-whatnot]

Robert Sanders I prefer high up positions and that movement in corners. I find it more relaxing.

[@TWBJ_01]

stupid you are suppose to access back seats from passanger side when you recline the seat it slides forward making it easy to get into the back seat
