yep, i found that weird, because the option was there for the old jimny, internal switch you flipped. And you can have manual wheel caps that makes them lock. I would like them to rlly make the Electric jimny they made a concept for.
@RoadRunnerLaser6 жыл бұрын
ferkeap - The manual wheel caps weren't to lock the diffs unless I am very much mistaken. The wheel-caps were to engage the front shafts. With the hubs unlocked, the wheels freewheel rather than driving the shafts when in 2WD mode, thereby reducing wear and improving fuel-economy. Suzuki maintained this approach until the Grand Vitara which ended up having a pneumatic dog-clutch to do that job (meaning that you did not need to get out of the vehicle to engage 4WD). The 2004 (if I recall) was the last one which had part-time 4WD and from then, the Grand Vitara went rapidly downhill and became an AWD piece of crap with that shitty torque-vectoring nonsense.

civertron Don’t get emotional about it boy. And I know exactly what Im talking about. An all terrain vehicle is a ATV, which is for off-road and off-road only. They are illegal on public roads. Example would be a Polaris General. SUV stands for Sport Utility Vehicle. This type of vehicle is meant for public roads but are also off-road capable. They are traditionally body on frame, and equipped with 4x4 transfer cases. Usually these transfer cases have 4-lo gearing but not always. Example would be Suzuki Jimny or Toyota 4Runner or Prado. A car based AWD vehicle is not equipped with a transfer case but instead uses a varity of different “clutch” systems that engage when front axle tires slip. Theyre called CUVs or crossovers. Example would be Toyota Rav4. 4x4 isn’t a type of car. Its a type of system.

The thing I like most about the 'brand new' jimny is that so much of it is the same as the previous Jimny (same chassis with a few new safety features, same axles, slightly larger displacement version of the same engine etc.). Suzuki are marketing this like it's a return to being a 'real 4x4' but in reality the Jimny has been doing the 4x4 thing very well for years and years. I've had lots of them, and for the work I do I wouldn't use anything else.

The Jeep Wrangler TJ models practically make it easy to do half the work yourself due to how simple the mechanics are designed. Suzuki parts on the other hand are not only expensive but much harder to find. If you are American, its silly not to go with a Jeep Wrangler for this particular type of vehicle.

If you pimp the Jimny up a bit: ie jack it up and put some decent tyres on it it’ll go basically everywhere. As for the wade depth, I’ve had mine through at least 700mm of water. The thing was floating. Had to open a door to flood the cabin so it had enough weight to engage the wheels. Took a while to dry the thing out later but the electrics and motor are still fine six years later. There are plenty of very narrow tracks near where I live where the Jimny kills the bigger cars. An astonishing car for the small amount of cash these things cost to buy. I absolutely love mine.

@@@foxhound1443. Yes, but with the lowest ever NCAP score. Zero stars is still a score. Just such a bad score NCAP don't even publish it. There are safer quad bikes. Emissions standards are on par with cross channel ferries...or a Volkswagen diesel.

@@johnbrier9746 Emissions standard is euro 5 last time i checked. As far as safety the car hasn't been changed for over 30 years except added airbags and better headlights. Lada Niva is still being produced and sold in europe. I know for a fact that there are dealerships selling nivas in Austria, Germany, Hungary an UK and prices vary from 10000-15000 euros.

Suzuki, make Jimny 5-door version please!!!

The Bridgestone Dueler is the worst tire to put on a Jimny. The problems on the rock crawl it was about the tires, allied to the light weight of the suzuki, only.

Jimny is what it is a perfect as a country run around.

It looks like an iPhone 5c and a G-Wagon had a baby coupe, I like it. Now only if it was available in the states!

Love how you mentioned the Jeep Wrangler as the best over the rock crawling bit :D Owned my 2012 JK since new to 87000KM* All my mates in Australia with D40 Nissan and GU/GQ Patrols etc can't beat my Jeeps handling and agility.

We need more small and reliability in the off road word. Big engines are over estimated.

Love the video! But 8:58 please keep your arms in the vehicle! I know this isn't that dangerous but it's a bad habit that could have you losing an arm one day, be careful out there.

The 3-door Land Cruiser is about 500kg lighter than the 5-door, which puts it closer to a sports car than its bigger brother.

You just pay a little more to lock the diffs and make its more offroad and it can beat anything with less than half the price
