Suzuki Jimny Cars
The Suzuki Jimny is a popular compact SUV that's designed to be both practical and affordable. The Jimny has been on UK roads since the 1990s, and the latest model offers many improvements over its predecessor.
With a body-on-frame design, solid front and rear axles, and high ground clearance, the Jimny is well suited for off-road driving. Its four-wheel-drive system includes low-range gearing and a switchable rear differential lock to give drivers extra control when navigating challenging terrain. This makes it an ideal car for drivers who need a reliable vehicle for driving through muddy fields or tackling steep hills in the countryside.
On the road, the Jimny handles well thanks to its compact size and responsive steering. Its small engine means it's not going to win any drag races, but it provides enough power for city driving or weekend adventures. In fact, with fuel economy ratings of up to 36 miles per gallon combined, the Jimny can be an economical option for commuters.
Inside, the Jimny offers ample headroom and legroom despite its compact exterior dimensions. There's room for up to four passengers, though those in the back may feel cramped during longer journeys. The boot is also relatively small with just 85 litres of storage space available when all seats are in use.
As far as features go, basic models come equipped with air conditioning, DAB radio with Bluetooth connectivity, power windows and door mirrors. Safety features such as electronic stability control (ESC), hill descent control (HDC), automatic emergency braking (AEB) lane departure warning (LDW), traffic sign recognition are all available as options on some trim levels.
Overall, if you're looking for a versatile car that's good value-for-money in terms of off-road ability then consider the Suzuki Jimny - especially if you like to venture out of cities from time-to-time or enjoy hiking and other outdoor activities where regular cars might not fare too well.
