Indonesian buyers of the Suzuki Jimny 5-door will have to wait for at least 10 months before taking deliveries, reports CNN Indonesia in February. Suzuki’s Indonesian distributor, PT Suzuki Indomobil Sales (SIS), explained that the supply of the Japan-made 3-door Jimny is approximately 50 units per month. In February, PT SIS had accumulated 800 orders, which means it will take about 16 months, or 1.5 years, to fulfill them. Meanwhile, the supply of the 5-door Jimny from India is larger, at 100 u

The Suzuki Jimny is a plucky little off-roader with a legacy that spans more than 50 years. However, for the first time ever, the lil’ SUV gains a pair of rear doors and after much speculation, the Jimny 5-door has become a reality. Making its world debut at Auto Expo 2023 in India, the sub-continent will be the first market for the Jimny 5-door which is expected to go on sale in May. Built at Maruti Suzuki’s plant in Gurugram, the extended Jimny will be exported to other markets though it remai

As far as modified Suzuki Jimnys go, this is probably the most over-the-top. This modified Jimny is done by Chinese automotive website Yiche, and the design is drawn heavily from the Chinese brand Tank. If you’ve never heard of Tank before, the brand is a sub-brand under Great Wall Motor (GWM). It was originally part of another GWM sub-brand known as Wey, they decided to split the two brands so Wey can focus on luxury models while Tank will focus on rugged Jeep-like models. Tank currently has fi

With its retro looks and diminutive stature, the Suzuki Jimny isn’t just some plucky lil’ off-roader, it’s a trendy fashion statement on 4 wheels with a long waiting list everywhere it is sold. If you’re looking for a used one, tough luck, as they can be costlier than a new unit. In Indonesia, the Jimny was launched in 2018 and it became a massive hit despite its high price ranging from IDR 409.5 million to IDR 425.1 million (~RM 123k-128k). Sales were so overwhelming that the waiting list for t

If rumours are to be believed, it certainly does look like Great Wall Motor (GWM)'s subsidiary Tank is working on a Suzuki Jimny rival called the Tank 100. But is it really the case? We reached out to our colleagues from China, who said that these images are merely a render and have been floating on the interweb since last year. Someone has clearly took images of the current-generation Suzuki Jimny and grafted on Tank’s family look. Definitely an impressive job, seeing that they managed to fool

The just-launched-in-Malaysia 2021 Suzuki Jimny is a car many would deem to be a little off-kilter, equally loved and chided online - considering its RM 168,900 asking price. Yet, the first two shipments have been sold out, and all four cars you see in these pictures have all been accounted for. There's been lots of comments about it being 'low-spec' and how dare it not come with ADAS at its price, but clearly the Jimny's value lies elsewhere. The fully-imported (CBU Japan) Jimny is the second m
