Would be awesome to do an off road comparison between some of the big players in the offroad fraternity: a few bakkies, Ranger, Hilux, then some others, Fortuner, Everest, LC79, LC200, Discovery, Defender, Wrangler, Jimny, etc. Atlantis Dunes would be perfect, maybe some other trails too

It's not only in Cape Town, I used to see it everyday in Centurion and I still see them in Midrand, Personally I like the 3-door model, it's looks funky and cool, the car makes you smile inside, it's like that tiny dog that runs to every stranger waggling it's tail every time you enter someone's yard, you just wanna take it with you.

That statement is true for a lot of cars, fortuner, d-max, p series, mux all of those big suvs and bakkies almost never even see a gravel road. and dont even start with the land cruiser 300, the range rovers, the g wagons, they are lucky if they go on slightly damp grass

Well, when the 5 door came to my country I had to think about selling my 3 door, it was a hard decision, so hard that I kept them both. Now my parents have a 3 door Jimny to run errands (senior citizens), because I traded THEIR car for the 5 door.

The suspension can be fixed quite easily with a set of Bilstein shock absorbers for R10k. I fitted them to my 3 door and it transformed the handling, ride quality and safety. The steering feels crisper with less body roll. As for the performance, fit a throttle controller for R2k and you have fixed the two major issues with the car for not a lot of money! Avoid fitting the roof rack unless you have a use for it as it aggravates the handling issues and increases the fuel consumption. Unfortunately the Jimnys are being targeted by criminals for the contents of the car (not the car itself) as they easy to break into. The Jimny doesn’t have an alarm, only an immobilizer. My car was broken in to and it took them 65 seconds including parking their car next to mine and reversing out.

Ciro, I don't get why you're a bit negative about this vehicle in the beginning. Let me try explain why the Jimny is such a success (my point of view) - firstly it's fairly simple, not quite basic, not perfect but not flawed. It's built for a purpose and from what I see it's quite robust. The drivetrain is built as it is to keep running costs low. It may not be fast but it's not supposed to be. It may not be that great on the road but you've got to understand that those who purchase the Jimny know this but don't really care about that. There are certainly a lot around, no matter what anyone says about the Jimny, they're selling. That shows that customers will buy and not necessarily be swayed by opinion.

I had 3 Suzukis. An LJ, a Samurai and a Sidekick. I really enjoyed all of them and not one gave me any problems while I owned them. Plus, I always drive less than the speed limit so they all fit my driving style. Lastly, Canada has 7 months of winter and those vehicles all performed flawlessly on snow and ice.

I just bought a 2024 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, and I would buy this cute little 4X4 in a heartbeat if this was available in Canada. This is a fit for purpose 4X4 that will go almost anywhere where a Rubicon will go. The strength of this vehicle is its weight or the lack of it, solid front axles and a great low range transfer case. Most of the time I drive alone and I don't mind the diminutive dimensions. that's actually great on narrow forest trails. I drove one last year on my visit to India and absolutely loved it.

My dad and I were in the market for a car at the same time. 4x4, low range, can handle the rough stuff. He generally carries 2 people on a trip, but sometimes in his Tiguan caries 4 plus luggage on a long trip. I was replacing a Grand Vitara he was replacing a 2009 Jimny. I tried my hardest to convince him to replace his Tiguan and his Jimny with one vehicle. I ended up buying a Scorpio N Z8, he settled for the Jimny. I got mine on a Black November deal, and guess what! I paid less for the Scorpio N than a Jimny! I cant even imagine this!!! Of course there are so many dynamics at play but just think about that. A 7 seater family SUV for the same price as a Jimny. Its truly amazing. Jimny has done something right. Good on them! I just can't understand it 😂

Thanks for another great production! I'm in the second week of driving our GLX XL automatic, same colour as in video, the urban fuel consumption is just over 10L, thats not worth the second con ....the price...... We do have a Front Runner roof rack & ladder, side steps and wheel case being added in two weeks. I get the cute factor my mum saw however if you shopping with price in mind +-R530k..... please consider all other options, second hand bakkie or bakkie based SUV for off road, if you want to save fuel then the Corolla Cross hybrid varients...you could even get a Polo GTI for that price. My 2017 Polo GTI with mods averaged 7.2L Great vehicle to look at, not great to drive daily especially with an all round lack of power, 75kw & a 4speed auto 😢

My mom is in the Jimny gang 😂 I totally agree with Ciro's review. You can't use it as a mall crawler coz the boot is too small. You can't use it on 'big roads' coz it provides a near death experience when being overtaken. And you can't go much faster than 100kmh so you will be overtaken often. And whenever you ask to use it on the 4x4 sand track to take the dogs to the beach you will be told to "voggof". But it does look nice and cost R500k.

Many poorer developed countries need such vehicles, as most products out there are wide body and sloped front windshields, which is bummer if to many drivers cut in front of you and you have to drive thru muddy part of the road from time to time. Visibilty in modern vehicles are constrained, whereas in older square shaped ones are simple and can wage dimensions easily.

Unfortunately the Jimnys are banned due to emissions in UK/ Europe so your market is getting all the Jimnys we can’t. When this new model came out I thought they’d be this popular here but Suzuki couldn’t make them quick enough before the emissions rules changed. The only way we can get them are as ‘vans’ as commercial vehicles have different regulations. The only van thing is the rear seats aren’t fitted but that means they’re not that useful for the average buyer.

Driving a Jimny in New Zealand is easy, you won’t get ambushed at the robot. 😂. The Highway speed limit here is only 100km/h and 90km/h so I couldn’t imagine driving 120km/h on the highway (or 140-160 as most do in SA). A Jimny would still be a great lifestyle vehicle in SA. The reason it’s so narrow is due to it’s heritage as a kei car in Japan. The first (sold out) shipment of 500 5dr autos have arrived in NZ and the next shipment of 5drs only arrives in September and will probably sell out.

I cruised at 120 kmph on a 500 km trip. No issues. Cornering is supposed to be slower than that in any case. Went on another 200 km highway trip with the car full 335 kg payload limit. On the highway. No issues. I don't know what you are talking about, honestly. Hitting higher speeds a few seconds faster is more useless than . Also, these speeds you speak of are above speed limits and safe driving limits in any case, so it doesn't hold water. There's nothing critical missing in it, not even in the dashboard, and it can go to very many more places than non 4×4 other cars. And, I am 6 ft tall, the head didn't bumb in the back. And, in this car, you go through pot holes, not avoid it :-)

We own the 3dr version and adding the 5dr to our stable. We drive daily with no issues and certainly never had concern cornering. This guy either don’t know how to drive or was of dramatic the steering. We live in the Philippines and take corners very well. Pot holes with ease. The thing the Jimny is great out easy to Park to get in and out of tight areas. You get a higher line of sight so way easier to see the terrain traffic and so forth. And then you go off road where there is nearly no limits what this can do. I know he was trying to entertain but annoying to act like you can’t take a turn and keep your lane. I’m 6’5” 300’lbs and have plenty of room and comfort.

The 3 door is a more capable 4WD. The approach and departure angles are better and the 1.5l motor is more suited to the lighter 3 door. Not to mention the 3 door is made in Japan, 5 door in India and lets face it. The 3 door simply has more charm 😉

Unless you want the off road stuff there is just so many better cars for daily communing. I mean you are talking Corolla Cross Money here. Or if you are looking for something by Suzuki, then the new Grand Vitara is better then this thing for R100k less. But obviously it looks cool. I mean people are still paying R3mil plus for a R1mil G wagon so coolness I assume plays a massive role with these type of cars.

Lovely little vehicle, however, as good as it is off-road, for that kind of money I'd rather buy a second hand double cab 4x4 as it is a much more useful vehicle

"A good 4X4 is built, not bought". Supercharge it, add front / rear diff-locks, change the rubbish OEM tyres, fit Tough Dog suspension, swap the useless speakers for Kicker sound - and you'll have an epic vehicle!

Life is too short to drive a car based on being rational - like with your C63 Ciero ;) . Same as Wrangler - it does not make sense, and it is not the best car for city etc. But still, Wrangler drivers love their ride - so Jimny all the way. And as far as I know, there might be a mild Hybrid Jimny coming. That would then be an option for sure

Love it ...but they would have to take the back seats out and make it a commercial vehicle before it could be legally sold in Britain due to emission laws which also applys to EU countries ...come on Suzuki make a commercial version of the 5 door Jimny so we can get it across here ...i would buy one in a heartbeat.

Seen this car last week in town on display with price tag 40k NZD for basic variant. looks quite ugly for it's price. 3 door one couple years ago wasn't to bad. Especially with quite nice rugged interior. What's is missing is longer body which will make it look ok. and with larger boot space and roof box we'll be able to carry all our camping equipment. 5 seater without any solid luggage space is useless.

The 5 door jimny will eat into the sales of the 3 door and kill what made the jimny special in the first place, compactness. Even the latest generation jimny is noticably bigger than the prior generaton
