Not sure if I heard the reviewer right when he said the Jimny is an all wheel drive (AWD).. if he did, then no, it is not an AWD. It's a Four Wheel Drive (4WD). There's a difference. Other than that, good review! 👍

[@harveylakhmani]

As a Jimny owner, I can tell you this car has many flaws and is impractical if you're more than 2 people. I actually had gripes with this car but I was able to address those issues with a couple of after market accessories. Overall, the Jimny is rough around the edges but it really is a fun and good-looking car and I have absolutely no regrets on getting it. Nice review Roy!

[@RealRoyRobles]

Thanks! That's well said! It's impractical, rough around the edges and has no reason to be a logical choice for those looking for comfort, performance and practicality, but the hell if it isn't a wickedly desirable car!

[@mandydriscoll2043]

I've owned a jimny and fully paid for the next upcoming jimny to be delivered early 2023. Love jimny for weekend fun times and off-roading. Can't wait for my new Jimny!

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

Have fun!

[@jimmyb4982]

I pick up my Jungle Green Jimny this Saturday. Can't wait!

[@tastyjaskie3004]

Waiting for mitsubishi to resurrect the pajero mini ✌🏼

[@RealRoyRobles]

that would be epic! there's been some news of an all-new one supposedly in the works, but I'd take that with a healthy, heaping, spoonful of salt.

[@rajat867]

Great review very helpful I am from India i just booked jimny as Suzuki is launching jimny here in march

[@melvinrimorin7840]

If only people knew how capable this is. They need to check out videos of the Jimny going against the off road big boys, yes, including Jeeps. You'd be surprised. But off road enthusiasts, I'm sure, already know this. I'm not an enthusiast but still a fan. Its engine is actually a de-tuned K15B, exactly the same engine as the Ertiga but with less hp and torque. Nonetheless, it is a lot lighter, smaller, and has all the right mechanics and tech for off-roading. If I'd have a 2nd car that can do anything, I'd probably get this one. Dream car material. 😊

[@RealRoyRobles]

it totally is in the top 5 of my dream garage! we'll be posting some more videos soon about our shenanigans and experience with this little monster!

[@melvinrimorin7840]

@@RealRoyRobles Will wait for that one, brother. Cheers!

[@arniegajudo]

do I need to full stop when changing to 4H? thanks for answering incase

[@mykeandrewbautista1738]

The Jimny is a must have car in your garage as weekend trail car

[@baneAP]

Got the same CAR. Loving it since March 2022. :)

[@edwardtobiemejia7895]

"any friends wanna go out on a joyride you tell them NO, front seat's reserved for my significant other" loved that!!!

[@edgardodelrosario7840]

Why does Suzuki Phils requires PMS every 4 months for locally released units regardless of whether you use Fully Synthetic oil or not? Are they not the most expensive to maintain?

[@jeromeavila3195]

Nice content bro!

[@joeljr9403]

Question, what is better and why? Manual or automatic??? Pls answer

[@NB.Auto4012]

Great review! although sana ung breds ung suot mo na sapatos, hehe! definitely subscribing!

[@eg3360]

Just want to point out that the default drive is rear wheel drive, not front wheel drive. Great review overall.

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

That's true! I'll be revisiting the Jimny soon, I want to make sure to give it a review from a fresh perspective!

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

I started laughing when he mentioned that!!👋🤣👍 seem like you and me are the only ones who caught that mistake!

[@boybigoes5794]

Ang husay ng review mo. Nasabi mo tlg ano dapat malaman sknya na maxado anik anik. Plus ung gas miles nya hahah. Still love to have this one. Don’t care sa gas consumption just wanna have fun anywhere any road

[@WondrousExplorer]

In India, 5 door version is being tested. Expecting launch in Q1 2023.

[@vvuingvvuing2665]

is it bad if i'd want to drive this on the daily? im thinking of having this as my first car since it's my dream car 🥺

[@tedilearnstoluxe8679]

Aside from all that you said, what bothers me a lot is the add on you have to do, given that steep price, is the backlight on the gear box. There’s none so you have to have it installed. I didn’t do it yet so I put a small rechargeable, magnetic and touch sensitive blue light below the window buttons panel for now. BUT for my 1st car, this is great to drive in thru narrow streets and easy to park and i like the macho look of it.

[@eg3360]

The obvious question is why are people constantly looking for things that is not expected from the Jimny? You can't have it all guys, unless you have dough to spend, period.

[@iblamerobert]

This is my dream car ❤️

[@alexlagas2744]

I've seen suzuki jimny GLX in an off road travel with some off road big boys and sj is performing well in descending, up hill, going a very muddy mountain trail...this vehicle is amazing however it carries only on four passengers including the driver...i think the manual trans is good for kind of vehicle.. .

[@lukaszimmermann2215]

I made a six month offroad trip from Germany to China with my best friend and the Jimny (older FJ model) it was a extremly reliable car. The new Jimny is verry expensiv in Europe but i will get one sooner or later.

[@remancabison]

Wow ganda naman sana zone magka roon ako nang ganyan

[@radmansa5514]

Love it ❤💪🏼🔥👌👍🏿

[@jbdscorpionking]

Hello! What would you suggest as an alternative to the Jimny? Thank you.

[@RealRoyRobles]

The thing about the Jimny is that it basically has no segment rivals in the PH market. if you want to go pound for pound, the closest thing will probably be the Hilux J 4x4, DMAX 4x4 LT or the Ranger XL 4x4 which are low-key offroading beasts considering their power and price plus they have electronic rear locking differentials. current Subcompact Crossovers are a different animal altogether given that they are not body on frame like the Jimny but the S-Presso, surprisingly drives very similarly to the Jimny. The Rush also comes to mind given that they have the same body construction, but the Jimny can't hold a candle to it's seating capacity.

[@rondg2]

for the price of the jimny m/t you're better off w/ a base model 4x4 pickup. if a/t try to find a used vitara ALLGRIP AWD they're pretty good offroad. another alternative is subaru xv or crosstrek awd even better offroad than vitara allgrip

[@rondg2]

Rush isn't body-on-frame. just have a look for yourself you won't find a ladder frame under the rush@@RealRoyRobles

[@kotabg1946]

Hope Suzuki will release soon the 5-door Jimny. Hope I will also have the money to buy one.

[@RealRoyRobles]

I can imagine the 5-door Jimny already! That would be a fun road trip!

[@iwikyonip]

0:22 I also have that diecast car, same color 😁

[@RealRoyRobles]

What do the kids say these days? Ah yes: Manifesting! 🤣

[@arniegajudo]

my future primary car... MPV will be the 2nd.

[@greenmancroc7914]

India has a 5 door version. 😒 I hope we get a 5 door version here too

[@ricajeanrubio5799]

The 2nd row struggle to get out is hilarious

[@ZigWheelsPhilippines]

I struggle so you won't have to! 🤣 -Roy

[@esjanelopez259]

How can I install Apple Carplay?

[@RealRoyRobles]

apple Carplay usually comes standard from the factory. all you have to do is connect your iPhone to the headunit that has Apple Carplay using a compatible cable and the system automatically connects. if your headunit does NOT have Apple Carplay there are alot of aftermarket products you can purchase to replace the headunit to get the feature. :-)

[@dexternuqui753]

Dude, are you in Cainta at the back of Il Centro? Hahaha

what's your height sir ?

same, wag na magtaka kung top speed at " 7 seater sana " ang trip nila hahaha

[@karoluscamilius417]

The prior video I watched has a plate number 2 digits later that yours. Lol.

[@paradtolentino7686]

Did I see 6.3 km/L in the dashboard?

[@RealRoyRobles]

You sure did! It was a hot day and we needed the AC on while shooting the static shots. It was running on idle for 2 hours, hence the 6.3 km/l :-)

[@grezalid]

Why does he keep saying 2H is front drive? I have the car. It's REAR WHEEL DRIVE in 2H.

[@anibalbabilonia1867]

Just to show you how much he doesn’t know about the vehicle!

[@winstoncastro7440]

❤ it

[@antonmilanes6354]

2h - rear wheels are turning not the front

[@RR-fc2ie]

This little car is big on life. It eats land rovers. Nissan patrols. And land cruisers, nearly😢 its not beaten.

[@mazman1600]

In 2wd I believe this is rwd you kept saying it was fwd

[@RealRoyRobles]

aw snap! I did? my bad. The Jimny does run on the rear wheels when not on 4WD mode. thank for the catch!

[@jimmyb4982]

@@RealRoyRobles I caught that, too, but you're articulate, energetic and likeable, which more than makes up for small factual errors, in my opinion.

[@RealRoyRobles]

@@jimmyb4982 I should totally keep my eyes and ears peeled for that! But thank you so much! I'm glad you watch our videos :-D

[@Mr.NM26]

Nice review though it looks like Jimny doesn't match the price for 2022-2023.

[@JowaMoto]

it definitely needs 5th or even 6th gears to save fuel

100 %yes

Just a piece of advise. If you're a family of more than 2 then look the other way. Trust me, this thing is not family friendly.
