When it comes to the Suzuki Jimny, the aftermarket catalogue is chock full of ways to turn the small but thoroughly capable off-roader into an individualistic fashion statement. DAMD is one of those aftermarket players and at the upcoming 2024 Tokyo Auto Salon (TAS), it will be publicly unveiling two new body kits. The Japanese aftermarket company is not new when it comes to Jimny cosplays, transforming the modern retro design into past classics like the original G-Wagen and Ford Bronco as well

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

While the Proton X50 is coming soon (by October), let's take a look at its recently-launched, quirky cousin - the Lynk & Co. 06. What has the Proton X50 got to do with anything? We hear you ask. Well, Lynk & Co. is part of Geely Auto and as such, the 06 shares the BMA (B-segment Modular Architecture) with the Geely Binyue, which in turn underpins our upcoming X50. It doesn't stop there. The 06 gets a 1.5-litre, turbocharged three-cylinder mill pushing out 177 PS and 255 Nm mated to a 7-speed dua

If balance and rising to the top from obscurity are what makes winners, then Geely Auto and Peter Horbury have a lot in common. It’s little wonder then, that Horbury is Geely Auto’s executive vice-president of design, and now, Autocar’s Lifetime Achievement award winner. At Geely Auto, Horbury is tasked with using every ounce of creativity and talent as he guides the Chinese global car conglomerate that does almost everything - building upcoming brands like Lynk & Co whilst maintaining mainstay
