Jumping Jimny

Jumping Jimny

Date: 2012-07-25
Suzuki's inimitable and enduringly popular Jimny all-terrainer has just undergone a series of subtle improvements. The changes are all cosmetic and are aimed at endowing the little 4x4 with a sharper presence, while the interior also benefits from several improvements.

The most obvious improvements are to be found at the front of the Jimny, where the combination of a new bonnet, a cosmetically pleasing air scoop, redesigned grille and a bolder front bumper all add up to a more powerful appearance.

From a safety perspective, the latest Jimny now offers ISOFIX child seat anchor points, which augment an array of active and passive safety features that already includes ABS anti-lock brakes, dual SRS front airbags, three-point inertia reel seatbelts, and front and rear head restraints.

The drivetrain still links Suzuki's tried and trusted 1 328 cc in-line four-cylinder engine to a five-speed manual gearbox and a low-range transfer case. That combination, together with the Jimny's low mass, raised ride height and extended suspension travel, ensures exceptional 4x4 capability, almost regardless of the terrain.

Also unchanged is the Jimny's comprehensive array of standard comfort and convenience features. The list includes air-conditioning, remote central locking, electrically operated windows and mirrors, power steering, a FM Stereo/AM receiver with CD front-loader, and an integrated alarm/immobiliser system.

The latest Suzuki Jimny went on sale at Suzuki Umhlanga in mid-July, and includes a four-year/60 000 km service plan, and a three-year/100 000 km warranty. Call them on 031 582 6330 or visit their showroom at 1 Wilton Crescent, Umhlanga Ridge and take a Jimny for a spin.
