Suzuki is well-known for its "kei" class cars (compact, sub 1.0L engine vehicles) in Japan. Since 1970, the Jimny has been the manufacturer’s kei-sized crossover/off-roader featuring the legendary ladder frame. The Jimny is powered by a small and punchy 660cc engine but features the same basic DNA as any other full-sized cross-over including 4WD, choice of manual or automatic gearboxes, high ride height (compared to other kei cars) as well as 16-inch wheels that are large for a car in this class.
In its 2012 model year, the Jimny's engine sports a 660cc inline three-cylinder DOHC intercooler unit with an output of 64 hp, mated to either a 5MT or 4AT. Fuel efficiency ranges from 14.8 to 16.4 km/l. Feature highlights on this model year include part-time 4WD with sub-transmission, a drive action 4x4 that allows for switching between 4H and 2H even while driving, a change-up in the height and construction of its front hood to mitigate the impact to pedestrians in the case of collision, as well as fixing anchors for ISOFIX compliant child seats. If you're looking for a light off-roader, the Jimny is the choice for you. Get yours here at BE FORWARD!
