This was our finding after we took the Suzuki Jimny 5-door for a test drive.

Combined with the fact the starting price for the 4×4 is R429,900, we were incredibly impressed by how much value and performance Suzuki has packed into this iconic vehicle.

Multi-talented

The Suzuki Jimny 5-door offers the best of both worlds with outstanding off-road capability and easy maneuverability for city driving.

At the heart of the Suzuki Jimny 5-door’s off-roading capabilities is its ALLGRIP PRO 4WD system, which offers two modes – 4WD and 2WD – for handling all kinds of terrain.

In 4WD, the Jimny offers you a choice of high-range and low-range transfer gears for your off-road adventures:

• High-range 4WD offers better traction for driving on dirt or gravel trails and snowy roads.
• Low-range 4WD delivers the best traction and torque, allowing you to navigate soft sand, mud, and steep, rocky terrain.

The Suzuki Jimny 5-door’s off-roading capabilities are further enhanced by many additional features – including a powerful 1.5-litre engine, 210mm ground clearance, and a narrower profile that makes it easier to find different ways to navigate obstacles.

When you’re driving on paved roads, you can switch to 2WD mode.

This delivers improved fuel efficiency – from 6.3l/100km – and less wear-and-tear on the vehicle’s core drivetrain components.

Thanks to its compact size, the Jimny 5-door is also easy to navigate around town and into tight parking spaces, while still having more than enough power for long-distance travel.

Your driving is further complemented by the spacious cabin, which makes your trips notably more comfortable.

Whether you use the cabin space for groceries on your trips to the shops, or to take the whole family on a holiday – the Suzuki Jimny 5-door will make every drive one to remember.

A 9-inch infotainment system (exclusive to the GLX) gives a luxurious feel to the Jimny 5-door and even features wireless smartphone mirroring for easy hands-free calling and communications.

When driving the Jimny 5-door, you will also enjoy a stylish multifunctional steering wheel, climate control (exclusive to the GLX), and automatic headlight activation with LED projectors (exclusive to the GLX) – all of which contribute to a more comfortable drive in all conditions.
