This looks more like a Defender than the new Defender.

[@0verfiend]

It’s more like the original jeep than the new one.

[@svein-haraldribland8559]

Giggitee O'Yeah so much better than the American junk

[@gnawershreth]

The shape and the rear really reminds me of a mini version of Mercedes G Wagon. :)

[@oldcargeezer]

lt's what Land Rover should have done with the Defender.

[@MrKbuland]

Why can't more manufacturers make small offloader suv's? Love it.

[@bartoszpajak2285]

I love this car. Fitted with a lift kit, slightly bigger tires, and a locking diff it turns into a surprisingly capable (and reliable) vehicle. And the size, well,... when I was younger, I used to travel through Africa and Asia with a motorcycle. Once you've done that, you'll find the comfort level and the load-carrying capacity of the Jimny not only sufficient, it's impressive😁

[@elionh4532]

Moto travel is an art.

[@wangdangdoodie]

Come on Suzuki, release a Grand Jimny. Long wheelbase & four doors. You'll dominate the market.

[@aaronraines3375]

Exactly That was be awesome amigo

[@longdonglarry]

yes I would buy one blind. I love this car but I need 5 seats.

[@1SaG]

Soft-top version first, please... :D

[@aaronraines3375]

Would be awesome

[@guseks8413]

I so agree with this, I would absolutely love this as a hunting car but it is just too small. Abit bigger and a turbo diesel with a 6 speed auto and it would be gold.

[@simonlloyd7557]

id rather have one of these instead of the Land Rover Pretender.

[@daveb3363]

Land rover pretender 😂😂

[@oldcargeezer]

You mean the new Defender, or the old one? l am guessing the new one, and l am of the same opinion. I've got a 2020 Jimny and a 2005 Defender

[@shankarbalan3813]

I have this Jimny’s Grandpapa here in India…the Maruti Suzuki Gypsy. It is a veritable mountain goat. It is still sold in NZ as the Suzuki Farm Worker for use exclusively on farms and is not to be driven on the road. However the farm worker is a short wheelbase whereas the Gypsy in India is a slightly longer wheelbase. Because the Gypsy in India has been for 35-36 years, the preferred light transport and quick deployment go anywhere vehicle for our Armed Forces and Police and Forest Services etc.

[@yeahman1975]

Still relevant

[@mattdavies3023]

So you can fix the problems you mentioned with it by buying the manual with the rear locker and adding a cargo mat. 👌 the modern Defender 90 - for now 🙂

[@alflurin]

The idea of an automatic gearbox on a budget offroader is unnatural to me. So yes, I agree with you.

[@noelebbert9322]

He should have blurred out the profane automatic gear selector.

[@odys3803]

For a fraction of the price

You'd also leave out some seals so that rain can leak inside the car. - Oh, and some rust here and there.

[@raphaelmejia319]

Isn't the automatic transmission better for off-road?

Do it Andrew. Build a Jimny offroad tourer with a tear drop trailer

[@enjoymusic4895]

trailer??? how much jimny towing capacity?

[@T1M083]

@@enjoymusic4895 wouldn't be much. Hence a tear drop trailer. Google it.

[@rottpung]

@@enjoymusic4895 According to the German Suzuki website it can tow up to 1300 kg (trailer w/brakes) or 350 kg (trailer w/o brakes). Maximum tongue/hitch weight is 75 kg. Applies to both the manual and the automatic gearbox.

Could easily be worked around.

[@1998TDM]

Ahh, fond memories of the old Jimny. I happily watched a totally bogged and fully farkled Nissan Safari slowly pulled out of the door handle deep bog by a whiskery fella who happened to pass by in his battered Suzuki. He put a pulley on a tree to get some angle and literally inched the beast out. The 4x4 club were well humbled that day. Excellent videos, thank you.

[@tbillington]

Wasn't expecting that much praise. Will have to try one out myself.

[@aussiedrifter]

Thank you Andrew, We have owned Suzuki 4X4's since 1980 starting with the LJ80 up to the current Jimny all being manual never tried an Auto, & we have covered many hundreds of thousand km from the top end down the centre (When it was still dirt road) & East to West 13 times, & anywhere in between. They have always had a 40lt tank with an average range of 430km so twin jerry can's in side sponsons gave us around 860km A little mostly unknown fact is that when the Japanese decided to build these they based them off the Original WW2 Willy's Jeep, If you check they are very similar in size & mechanical set up drum brake's etc & originally up until the Sierra in their appearance. Anyway, thank you for once again another unbiased review, one more thing on Overlanding one of our longest stints camping/travelling was 22 days you just have to plan the trip very well, but I definitely don't have to tell you of all people that fact. LOL Kind Regards, Steve.

[@tyler9144]

same we did to from the start

[@adriantyler6911]

If they had built it 25% bigger and put a Land Rover badge on it it could have been the new Defender at a fraction of the cost and more how everyone expected and wanted it to be!

[@Newbutold]

Your wish has turned into a reality, well almost. They made a 4 door jimny and unveiled recently in India. Will be launched in a few months.

[@Bigchaser01327]

The Jimny has always been good off-road, and as you say one of the few real four wheel drives left.

[@briantrend6675]

can any Jimney owner s tell me, without a garage do they ever leak from heavy rain? I live in the UK it rains a lot here. To me I have'nt rushed out to buy one even though this a favourite of mine. Thats because, to me UK isn't car country. its way so busy here, too many cars, too busy and compact , man made maze, no quite open roads between cities and the insurance racket here in the UK is a pain in the arse! so I use my feet walk, the bus , run and cycle . Maybe one day I will have the guts to do it. I read somewhere the saying: IS IT NECESSARY IS IT ESSENTIAL IS IT TRUE if not don't worry about it, keep life simple and happy Maybe one day.........

[@RicardoPestana]

[@ausoff-road7795]

Always been a fan of your style of review. Thanks for another.

[@sharkamov]

This review evoked fond memories of the original SJ-413! - We bought it (used) as my ex's first car, and though it was no RangeRover, it was a great little 4WD to drive around town, I'd say that wintertime showed it's _real_ force: you started it up, and by the time it was swept free of snow. the heater was running nice & warm inside the cabin (not forgetting the added enjoyment of readily towing free Mercedes and whatnot stuck in the snowdrifts!).- Finding this video of the 2019 Jimny (many car makes & models) later, makes me realize I'd gladly go for one! - Thanks for posting this, greetings from Norway!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💓

[@kieron3676]

Thanks for reviewing one of the most exciting new fourbys. A great honest review.

[@darioberton]

I live in New Zealand and I own a earlier model of the Suzuky Jimny and I absolutely love it! Once you get to know it a little bit it's incredible what this little thing can do! it always put a smile in my face! with the manual gear box which my ones has the steep roads are absolutely fine because you have a complete control over your gear box.

[@leenderdhoutzager9389]

Look at Roam Overlanding, he has done his Jimny for Overlanding with out a trailer and it looks and works well

[@TheMr0450]

warms my heart whenever i see your family..You are blessed! Love your work Andrew , i cant wait to see what your next rig is going to be.. i wish u rein in the Big 200 series...

[@acrescapes]

Hello Andrew Thank you so much for all the great videos and hard work, honest opinions and reviews. Over the years I have learned so much from your videos. Having had a 4wd KZbin channel myself in the past I know how incredibly hard it is to shoot these videos. It takes planning, hours of footage and then even more when it comes to editing. I must have seen all your videos not once or even twice but some many times over. Last night I binge watched u til 3 in the morning and was onto it again first thing today. Thanks again, keep up the good work and hope to one day possibly meet you out on the tracks here in WA

Mine arrived last week. I'm so happy. :-)

[@trevorgroves6291]

I'm actually looking at buying one of these as my first offroader. There's a 1 year waiting list but am watching what others are doing with this. Got plenty of time to research it but I already love it. Loving your overland experiences.

[@stephenbrown4183]

I bought one after watching a lot of videos like this one, and I love it. Even driving around town feels fun

[@peterwebster1379]

I've done 45,000 miles through the middle east and on through Africa north to south and back in the earlier stock Jimny. Egyptian deserts, challenging Namibian routes, Turkana etc - fuel on board for 1000km off road, and it never missed a beat. Parts replaced - one rear shock. Superb and capable.

[@Torvikholm]

I rented a previous gen Jimny on Iceland a couple of years ago. It was bloody fantastic! Well yes, it was loud when driving off road, the steering vague, and the old 1.3 was under powered, but man was it a fun drive. In about 10 days me and a friend drove around the whole country and taking it to several F-roads. It was always clear to me that its limits was at a far higher point than my own. Also the feeling of accomplishment when getting to a point at the F-road where all the other vehicles was Land Cruisers and HiLuxes on 38" + tires was fantastic. Oh how I love the Jimny. If only i could afford having two cars, I would love to own one.

[@LasseHuhtala]

One of the better, if not the best, real world review of the car.

[@oicofobico]

I am not a real off-road enthusiast, I live in Milan and have never considered it worthwhile to own such a vehicle. But when I tried my sister's Jimny in Ibiza, I fell in love with it. Easy to drive off-road for a beginner like me, it is a very practical vehicle, essential but capable of doing much more than what you would expect. You hit the nail. Jimny is a perfect car for many couples, even in the city, given its size. It is only sa shame that the approval does not allow 2 rear seats. I now have a Smart car, perfect in the city for someone who doesn't want kids, but I think my next car will be the Jimny, because it conveys the desire to get off the roads and have fun. Great video!

[@nobodyhikes]

Looks like a lot of good times can be packed into the Jimmy. Maybe we'll get this 4x4 option in the States one day. Thanks for the insight!

[@TheGammerguy]

[@alextot4484]

Excellent review Andrew. Love this little off-roader.

[@airbats801]

It's a shame these probably will never make it to the states. This is probably the first new vehicle in a decade that I would consider buying new. I was really expecting you to hate it Andrew, but I'm glad you found it quite enjoyable!

[@connorm1600]

Wonderful review Andrew! Keep up the good work. If you got a jimny with a manual transmission would fix the undesirable transmission characteristics

[@allanhaynes1599]

Had one 10years ago and had the greatest respect for the little truck... The new ones I am told a sooo much better in many ways.

[@johnatkins4766]

I have used this car in deep sand driving through riverbeds along the lower Zambezi national park, in slick mud over the Kafue flats, and up and over the rocky Kariba escarpment - the hard way. It's a brilliant little 4x4 and I am looking to buy one to challenge the Canadian snow now.

[@harveysmith100]

I have seen many versions of the Suzuki in the past being used in game reserves in India, Police forces using them, utility companies etc etc. It has always been a proper off road vehicle, just smaller than the usual 70's or Defenders. Solid Axles, low range, nothing to fancy that will go wrong. Love the design, really nice looking vehicle. Suzuki seems to be understanding that there is a place for a good old fashion 4x4 in the modern world. I wonder if Land Rover are going to produce a modern Defender with similar values?

[@urszemp4539]

Smile ---- knew, you couldn't have left your hands from this little gem. But seriously, many thx for your great work, your knowledge and experience. Really outstanding. Greetings and all the best from Switzerland. PS: How about a combo project: overlanding and fly-along with an ultralight ... ??

[@simonsmith9363]

A very good review indeed. I'm glad to see that the suspension "chop" has been sorted on this new model, it will make driving longer distances much easier. I still think the Jimny is a great vehicle for the budget conscious country sportsman, fitting a deer box in the back easily with enough room for a dog too!

[@MichaelRCarlson]

It's like the size of an old Jeep CJ 7 or early Wrangler, you know, before jeeps became oversized and SUV like. A proper little, nimble, trail runner.

[@mrjohnsonclarke]

Suzuki have always build excellent 4wds. I'm glad they are still going strong. Shame the same can't be said for some of the other old-faithfuls.

[@mrjohnsonclarke]

@ben walker, I absolutely agree with you and have had exactly the same thought. Second to Suzuki I think Mercedes might have done a good job. Third to that would be Toyota(due to their agricultural build style, 76/79 etc).

[@mrjohnsonclarke]

@ben walker, I agree. (as someone who runs a Defender body on a Perentie chassis with a S2a firewall, series 2 tailgate, series 3 doors with Perentie door tops, isuzu engine and a discovery 5-speed gb) ;)

My second car ever and first 4wd was a Suzuki Sierra. Loved it. It lasted forever and it got me out into nature again. I’m in Australia and lived in Sydney at the time. Between school and work I went from camping every other weekend or at the beach to roaming city streets and nightclubs. I have fond memories of it. I have a Suzuki Grand Vitara 4wd (2017 model) now. I couldn’t wait the 18months for the jimny to be built and arrive as my old car was considered a repairable right off. I live in the country nowadays and go camping, 4wding and to the beach every weekend. It’s a great way for me to relax and destress, meet new people and leave my worries, anxiety, depression behind.

[@xoyuzxoyuka6984]

im no offroad but feel happy after saw this review. wow.

[@cgrecommended]

When the Jimmy was announced I was moments away from signing the dotted line... Holding out for a 6+ speed auto for now. The last shape Jimmy got a new engine and diff ratios 3 years after launch so I'm hoping new gearbox options come shortly. After owning the last shape Jimmy I would go with the auto. Due to the smaller tyres and short wheelbase, technical obstacles need to be taken slower, and the manual low range isn't quite low enough. Lots of stalling, clutch riding and clutch dumps.

[@isegrim1978]

Did... did Andrew just recommend a trailer? Or am i having a stroke? ;-) Joke aside love the video, the Jimny brings up fond memorys of my mothers Suzuki Samurai from the ancient past of the 80s .

[@CarlosOteroC]

Exactly, they should do Carretera Austral in one of those.

[@BluTrollPro]

9:15 heh, it's funny you say that, I understand your wisdom, however my own experience is to the contrary, in fact there is a joke at an offroad site I visit that there is a track called "Jimny hill". Because the only lightly modified vehicles able to make it up it are Jimnys and dirt bikes/ATVs. I think it's the combination of a very steep incline & a very lumpy surface, the Jimny just bounces and scrabbles up, the Discos and Defenders seem to bog and lose momentum. And yes, whilst your rear passenger space is limited, the load space is very square & useable.

[@Swarm509]

I have a 2 door tracker and they key is good space management with containers and going as tall as you can in the space. Lots of room but plan to take stuff in and out a lot. Of course built in drawers and stuff help a lot too.

[@timmonapier8832]

Got the manual in June 19 and have been happy ever since. As I'm getting older now, getting beyond where the road deteriorates down to tracks has become an issue when carrying weight. The Jimny has solved that problem for me and is keeping me out there. The meat tray was an option I went for so the veni doesn't leak over the back seats. It has the same problem as the plastic seat backs but was easily solved with the use of an old sleeping mat. On a recent trip I managed an eight pointer (Red) and a decent sized spiker in the back( Had to cut up) along side pack and rifle and still had enough room to squeeze in the odd bit off extra equipment. I have never put the back seats up or sat in them but the front seats do the job. Over all for a single old fart who loves getting out there this is , once you adapt your thinking, ideal. I love it!

Well william its like this..american consumers over loaded, drove them beyond their design cababilitirs and limitations and crashed them,of course they did what they do best put in damage claims and suzuki were take to court..its true that they did loose and government restriction made suzuki withdraw certain models from usa after that.. 25years later as you point out usa consumers suffer because of their past antics... i suppose grey imports is the way to go for a new suzuki jimny or any jimny model after 1998.... part of me wants to say tough shit..but really on a more mature level...being diplomatic about it...they dont meet all your government regulations and leave it at that.

15 minutes already??? I was enjoying that, awesome review and great that you included the parts of "human error" like the Overdrive button, I want a Jimny but I'm too poor to get one.
