Meet the one that steals hearts at first glance, the Suzuki Jimny 5-door. Love can be complicated, but wait until you experience something simple, reliable and irresistibly capable. If love had four wheels and a low-range transfer case, this would be it.
The Jimny has always had character in abundance, but now, with five doors and extra space, it feels ready for a long-term commitment.
South Africans have always adored the Jimny for its reliability and 4x4 credentials, and the 5-door version builds on that legacy without losing its charm. Under the bonnet sits Suzuki’s reliable 1.5L petrol engine, delivering 75kW and 130Nm of torque. It is available with a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission, and most importantly, every model features the ALLGRIP PRO four-wheel drive. This is not a lifestyle SUV pretending to be adventurous. It is the real thing.
Its construction remains purpose-built for tough terrain. A ladder-frame chassis, 3-link rigid axles with coil springs, and 210mm of ground clearance ensure it can handle gravel roads, rocky trails and muddy tracks with confidence. While the hill hold control and hill descent control adds reassurance when the going gets steep.
Visually, it remains delightfully boxy. Round headlamps, an upright grille, pronounced wheel arches and 15-inch alloy wheels give it that unmistakable Jimny identity. Inside, the cabin blends durability with modern convenience. Depending on the grade, you can expect a touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, cruise control, climate control and a multifunctional steering wheel.
Safety hasn’t been forgotten either. Expect features such as ABS with EBD, stability control, and multiple airbags, offering peace of mind wherever the road leads.
The Suzuki Jimny 5-door is not about grand gestures. It is about shared adventures, muddy shoes and spontaneous road trips. And honestly, that sounds like a love story worth starting. It's time to fall in love with a new adventure partner this February, so visit Suzuki JHB South today to find your perfect match!
