Update: I sold the car. It was the best car I ever had. Never had any problem with it. Very strongly made! I sold it half a year ago because I do not need a car anymore.
It is a great car. I got the Dakota variant of it. It is an absolute monster off road, can get through anything. Very easy to park, boot is more than big enough with rear seats folded. Rear seats are fairly comfortable, maintenance is as cheap as dirt. You are legally allowed to pull 1.5 tonnes with it. (which is a lot). They also hold their value really good. The downsides of it are that this car is build for torque. That means that you're looking at 3000 rpm when driving 85 km/hour in 5th gear and the real fuel consumption varies between 7.8 - 9 litres. Therefore, with much pain in the heart I'm going to sell it. There are small city cars that only drink half. You want to buy this car as a second car because you NEED to get offroad_ Not as a primary everyday car. (like I did). It's really a lovely car... What a shame.

I currently have a Mitsubishi Shogun which I use for family events but I am looking for a daily driver and the Suzuki Jimni looks really good, Great video, told me a lot about the vehicle, like JP quality also, thankyou.
I flat tow my chevy tracker behind my RV. Great little car. I wish this was sold in us. I will need to replace tracker eventually and this would be perfect
just spent 20 grand on this pick up soon, would have liked to see more on 4 wheel drive info hear switches can't be pressed while wheels are turning and facing forward???
Now first off I f*****g love that song and second this is a Suzuki so they are pretty durable. Despite what you think about it this was designed mainly for its 4x4 capability and not its overall style or quality. Plus its tough as nails when you drive off road.

Always a good idea to stop and then switch, otherwise you can ruin the gears in time. 4WD-L is most likely "Low" gearing, meaning that the engine will have more pulling power but lower top speed, which is good for overcoming difficult off road situations where you need power but not speed. hope this helped :)
2wd means rear wheel drive which is used at all times. 4wd can be switched on while on the move and up to 100km/h in speed. What 4wd does is it engages front wheels as well. It is used on off road, snow and where there is bad traction. 4wL is low gearing for towing and extremely bad road surfaces. It cuts the gears almost to half, so second gear feels like first and first is really slow. To engage 4wL the car must be at full stop, foot of the clutch and in neutral. And this car is the only 1.3 litre engined car in production in the world that has this feature. And what he said about Japanese quality is wrong. These cars are made in Brazil after Santana motors in Spain, who was making them, went bankrupt in 2011. Hope i helped. Greetings.
+cruxader27 You can switch between 2WD and 4WD on the move up to 100kph. You have to stop and be in neutral to get into 4WD-L which is a low gear four wheel drive for more extreme off-roading fun :-)
you would be 100% correct, because its not available in the US!!! these are a great little 4x4 and you can thank Consumer Reports with their false claim of the Suzuki Samurai easily rolling over (which Suzuki successfully sued Consumer Reports, but the damage to its reputation had been done and still exists today). it caused the withdrawal of the Suzuki Samurai out of the US market and was the reason they never introduced the Suzuki Jimny.
the 1998-present Suzuki Jimny/ Suzuki Jimny Wide/ Suzuki Jimny Sierra/ Chevrolet Jimny/ Mazda AZ-Offroad is assembled in Hamamatsu, Japan Bogotá, Colombia Linares, Jaén, Spain
This is still not perfect, whe're's the navigation? LOL and i hope that the next generation of this vehicle will have the new features like the Nav, Usb, Bluetooth and many more.
What a stupid question of course men can drive them....now if you were to ask if a cat dog monkey cow or pig drive one i would not know but men can drive them as long as their not too obese as they are a little thin in wigth size but capable in every other way.
I know because their not on sale there...now 5 year on your all kicking yourselves that you can get the new one in....and we who can just laughing at you....ha ha ha.
No ou buggers over loaded them and drove them beyond their stated cababilities and rolled them over and sued so suzuki basically said fuck and withdrew them now you dont jet jimny any more...it wss the jimny 410 samuri which you ppl ballsed up....

I've been dreaming for this car for over 2 years now. Can't wait to explore the provinces of Phil with this little monster and my MTB attached to it.
+Alvin Villanueva Thats funny, me to. I finally bought one. Should have it at the end of this week.

Can you switch to 2WD or 4WD while running? And what is 4WD-L?
you can stop..and then 4*4...and go... ok?

yes, alot of owners remove the rear seats.
I still can't believe this is being made, without a redesign.
in 2013 and no navigation system ?
i'd buy one, My XL-7 is amazing i wish they'd make one here.
good car
As usual, not available stateside. BUT GOD I NEEEED IT
Kameron Baetge it's not available in states because of safety requirements.
Please do a Jeep Wrangler
thinking of buying one of these and throw some 20,s on, strictly no offroading
I love my zuk samurai
I'd agree with you there, not because no one would buy it, mostly because they can't. Since Suzuki is no more in the US.
I love this suzuki Jimny but in my country they are sooo expensive and I don't know why? :(
Daniel Rojas same here in my country too. even the used one's are expensive.
Привет =).Сделай обзор Волги.
How much
is it true that this car is not good for roads? like city roads :) (sorry im still a skrub to cars) :)
+aldrin john Wee Nah it's fine (it reminds a little bit of defender on normal roads) but it's great offroad.
+aldrin john Wee Fuck you, this is good car.
+ankhaa battulga well fuck you too
In brazil the best car 4x4(gasoline) ,it's mitsubishi pajero tr4,(it's the pinnin,with 4 doors
I love this car but suzuki didnot lounch in India

Aircon.....though aircon is an opitional extra not standard until 2013
I LOVE ANY WOMAN FROM JAPAN
😍
I think you mimic Saabklye04.
America doesn't have Suzuki Jimny. :(
Suzuki is not sold in USA anymore..
no problem :) i have also a partnership with GTChannel so hopefully my channel would get more notice and also feel free to check out my videos
now the join venture with suzuki-santana has been broken and suzuki stops the production of jimny in linares since 2009

This is still not perfect, whe're's the navigation? LOL and i hope that the next generation of this vehicle will have the new features like the Nav, Usb, Bluetooth and many more.
i have a 25 year old suzuki vitara jlx for sale,, needs new canvas roof and new battery...big legal wheels on it..has not been offroad
I'll give you 5 dollars for it.
I bet ya five fiddy!
WAENDERER LUC i'll give 6 dollars
why does it keep making that revving sound
The engine's cooling switches on and off to prevent overheating. Probable the car was stationary for a while with running engine prior filming.
atizeg thanks
Sounds like the electric fan keeps kicking on
fist, second, third, fart, firt and reverse
Could men drive this type of car?
What a stupid question of course men can drive them....now if you were to ask if a cat dog monkey cow or pig drive one i would not know but men can drive them as long as their not too obese as they are a little thin in wigth size but capable in every other way.
its 2013...who needs navigation in your car. your phone can do it easier and faster
🇷🇺🇮🇶🌏
3 Doors
Most likely wouldn't pass our emissions or safety tests.
🇮🇶🇷🇺🌏
И по русски нельзя говорить.
I don understanding what are you sayin !
no body is going to buy this in the US...
I know because their not on sale there...now 5 year on your all kicking yourselves that you can get the new one in....and we who can just laughing at you....ha ha ha.
the only people i could see buying this in the US is someone who wants a cheap jeep, someone buying their kid their 1st car or a lesbian haha
Nice but looks ugly
it doesn't meet Americans standard. Its just too basic, and given the reason why Suzuki is not sold in America anymore does to poor sales
No ou buggers over loaded them and drove them beyond their stated cababilities and rolled them over and sued so suzuki basically said fuck and withdrew them now you dont jet jimny any more...it wss the jimny 410 samuri which you ppl ballsed up....
