I must have watched about 30-40 Jimny 2019 reviews in the last month and yours is definitely one of the best. Keep up the good work!

Well I'm amazed. Personally this is just one of very few cars from very recent years that I would own. It's great to see sonething brand new with such cool old styling. Rubber gear gator, proper handbrake actual switches over touch ones. A very practical gem. Well done Suzuki! It's like a reborn Defender maybe.

This is the very best off-roader in the world! A no nonsense vehicle that you can drive on any goat track due to it's size. PHENOMENAL MACHINE!!!

This is one of the best reviews I have seen for the Jimny. You spoke about the car being the car that it is. No BS, no comparison between other cars, you just told it like it should be told. Honest and true, excellent review. Do more (ie Hyundia I30 Fastback N)

Good to see a UK based review. I've been driving mine for 1500 miles now and plan to put up a real world review this month but I do love the little blighter. Thanks for sharing. Andrew

I own a third generation Jimny and love it. The biggest problem with the new Jimny is that Suzuki at the moment are only supplying 1300 units to the UK per year and the last time I looked there were 10,000 yes 10,000 folks currently on the waiting list. Looks like I will be hanging onto my old girl for quite a long time yet.

This is the best Jimny review. You either 'get' this design or you don't - nice job

I have had the Blue/Black SZ5 for 4 weeks... I just love it, it's awesome... Smiles/Gallon are amazing. Took it on a local Green Lane up in the hills in the snow last week, No drama, it just works. Without a doubt it is a "Head Turner"

I’ve had my SZ5 Jimny for eleven days and absolutely love it. It is like a Rolls Royce compared to my previous Jimny which I now liken to an empty sardine tin. It is roomy inside and much more comfortable. The only thing I do not like are the window controls not being on the doors, otherwise it is fabulous.

Off road choice is defender and Jimny in UK.. Around Australia our go to is the Lancruiser and Prado..👍 I will be getting one of these as a weekender for bush bashing.. Nice review.. Thanks

Best Jimny review on KZfaq! Well done!

I'm getting my Jimny next week. The wait in the Philippines is about 6 months. I've watched so many KZfaq reviews. Practically everything. But your review was definitely the best I ever watched. Thank you! More power to you!

I had a 1988 SJ412 ragtop which I bought in 1996 and then spent a couple of months rebuilding the engine and gearbox. I had more fun in that than in any car I’ve owned in 57 years of driving. It really could go anywhere. IMO, these Suzis are the ultimate off-roader. You should have seen it climbing over boulders on our local beach. Neither a Landie nor a Jeep were able to make it across, while the Suzi’s smaller footprint made it able to perch on rocks that they both bottomed out on. Also, we once rescued a Landcruiser with an 18 ft boat behind it, which had sunk up to its axles in sand when a wave washed under it as they were recovering their boat. I had an elastic “Snatchstrap” and we popped that rig out, no problem. Earned ourselves a big crayfish and a snapper from some very relieved fishermen, who couldn’t believe that our little “toy” was so capable. Happy days.

What an awesome looking little thing! It looks like an old SWB LandCruiser that's been washed on too high of a setting. I have always been a fan of the small Suzuki offroaders from the SJ series and this one looks great as well.

Great review! Disappointed it doesn't come with a camera stuck to the windscreen but I'm still keen ;)

That is the best rewiew of Jimmy I have ever seen on KZfaq..... Thanks for making the video.....

What a really nice, dude. Love his enthusiasm and no BS approach. Some detailed input re the engine specs would have been nice but still a great overall review. This looks like a really fun off-roader. Thanks man for sharing your comments.

I tested one recently when my Swift was in for a service. Thoroughly enjoyed it, although my one gripe was limited rear visibility with the rear headrests in place. Still, I could cope with the seat backs down. At £18k it's more than I'd planned to spend on a new car, but I love three door cars and this is Suzuki's only three door! I do have 19 months before I'm due a change of car so I'll just have to convince myself that I can't live without one!

The best review out there. Most reviewers don't understand the idea behind this car

An excellent review, many thanks I've now subscribed.

Excellent review! I have a experienced the previous Jimny and yeah it was absolutely terrible in everything apart from going off road even fuel economy I'll rally glad they finally came up with a new one. I do a lot of soft sand off roading and I had to pull a few with my range rover mainly because if they lost their momentum the 1.3 coudnt pull them through but still insanely Capable and reliable

the hard part is buying one, i went to my local dealer yesterday, and was told 14 months waiting list :-(

Awesome video! Awesome Suzuki! We used to have this sold in the USA back in the 1980s, as the Suzuki Samurai.

Best description of the Jimney so far. I’m considering going for one. Thanks

Great, honest review, I get my silver one in one week, can't wait!

normally not interested in latest cars but really like this. Bet the Defender replacement isn't going to challenge this

So good to see Suzuki have taken styling ideas from the SJ's, looks like they have nailed it again, very tempted however what holds me back is the size, now if they had a special enlarging machine and made it Defender size then I'm in, SO SUZUKI PLEASE GIVE US A JIMNY XL

Look like a trip to Mexico to buy one to bring it back to Canada

...the best Jimny review so far ...

My first car way back was an old SJ40. Loved it. Will definitely buy one of these for my son as his first car

Excellent review

Sadly the Australian version has subtracted DAB and subtracted heated seats and speed sign recognition. Rather petty deletions given the dealer network is charging $2000 on top of list as a delivery fee. Imo.

Excellent review, just about every other you tuber has commented on the lack of a so the gear, what are your thoughts? Can’t wait to get a test drive when it’s available near me.

Great review

I had an SJ410 in 1986.It was great fun even then.

All my life I thought it was Jimmy. Only a couple of days ago did I realize it was called Jimny...

Is the Jimny's touchscreen not the resistive type? Most car touchscreens are resistive rather than capacitive so they work with gloves and are more robust.

Yes it does make smile on your face

New Jimny will be coming to the Philippines this q2. Looking forward to drive this cute ute.

I wonder this new Jimny is receiving such phenomenal reviews across the world. Why cant Maruti bring it into India too?

Nice review

Good review!

A no nonsense review by a normal bloke. Good to listen to. Worth watching all the way through. He is more interesting than any of the presenters on the new Top Gear. Suzuki make superb cars these days. Tough and reliable. I have the Celerio at the moment, and its a car full of character, a bit noisy sometimes because its a cheap car, not a lot of sound insulation but its very comfortable and has a superb gearbox. JD Power dependability puts Suzuki in 3rd place. Its a brand I trust and you get a lot of car for your money. If you want soft touch interiors, look elsewhere. Im not bothered about that nonsense. Suzuki make cars that are hard wearing. They don’t pretend to be something they aren’t. Japanese cars are the best.

You can shift into 4 wheel high at up to 62mph? That is something I did not know. I always thought any shifting at all meant stationary or not at all. Then again I have never had a 4x4 but I want this, I really want one.

Good review of what looks like s great car. Yes I want one, but I'll have to wait for them to hit the second hand market 😋

A ( very ) little like an off road Nissan cube, tall and square, upright windscreen, large side hinged back door. Great review, thank you.

You got great taste. I plan to get one in Kinetic yellow too hahahah!

I got mine just two days before 2020 lockdown. Review is first rate! Only niggles, the underbody rust, bad on a new car not used off road. Also the constant faulty tyre pressure warning light, I have covered it over. All said I would not part with it, there is no rival. Humble but massively cool. It is not a rational purchase.

According to me, Suzuki jimny needs more manual sunroof to be able to escape in case of drifting car. This is a major omission for a terrain vehicle

You should have got it on some rough stuff , and displayed what or what not it could have done , any car will drive down the rd ,, we only have your word for how good it is off road ?

A very enjoyable review, Suzuki have really nailed it with this new model....

It looks like Suzuki have done a brilliant job, I just wish land rover had taken a leaf from this book when designing the new defender.

Adorably amateur review. The quirkiness made it feel genuine. Good job. Wish we had these across the pond.

Thanks for this. I've always thought of Suzukis as one of those rare brands that are more than the sum of their parts. Loved the Swift I had for a few years, but now have gone full EV. When Suzuki finally put a battery in one of their cars, I'll buy one in a heartbeat. PS, have you ever seen the Suzuki Hustler? A genuine Kei car, with similar looks. Best description is a Humvee that shrunk in the wash. Somehow ridiculous yet awesome at the same time!

Finally got my delivery date confirmed for May 2019.....My dealer stopped taking deposits in Jan as they will not get any until 2020

One of these is on my 'must own' wishlist too! They're super popular here in NZ, the main two colours you see them in are Olive drab, and the yellow you refer to. In my opinion, they are pretty much the only modern 'basic' no frills car. By no frills, I mean no fancy touch screen nonsense, no over the top styling. I was on the phone with my mate earlier talking about Hondas. While I love Hondas, the current Civic and Accord are far too large and over styled.

Interesting you mention the go-to off-road vehicles. Here in Australia, Land Rover or Range Rover cars don’t necessarily have the best reputation, so anything Toyota is the go to. Suzuki does have a good reputation here and this little monster looks like a lot of fun. On a side note, can you consider doing a review on the Kia Stinger GTS (there in UK...here in Australia it’s the GT)....be interesting to see what you think of it. Thanks...enjoying your reviews...

You can have your Barbour repaired, they do it in Germany now though. I did becouse it was 30 years old, costed me twice as much as a new one...lol But beautifully done

Great review, good to see some comparisons regarding the previous Jimny..

Ok, tomorrow I will get my new Jimny!

Which will be better manual or automatic?

6 to 18 month waiting in Australia

12 month waiting list in Australia!

Thx for great review, Can you please make a review comparing Jimny with latest Vitara. 🙏

We need 5AT instead of 4

Anyone tried the new Suzuki Jimny with the automatic? I prefer an easy life and more room in the footwell of an auto, but the Jimny has a 4 speed, which seems a bit off-putting.

Excellent review, only bad thing to me is the long wait, ordered my one before Christmas and no idea on delivery. Even the indicator noise sounds Audi ish 😀

Why aren't these in the states? I WANT ONE! Screw these overpriced Jeeps and 4Runners!

We want try this beauty in Mexico!! 🚙🌵🐍🚙🌄 Baja racing 1000.🚙🏁

Another cracking review of a little suzuki, just a shame they cannot meet emissions.

Mum shrank my G-Class (Gelanderwagen) in the wash. All the better for it!

Owned what we called a Suzuki Samurai 4X4 here in Canada & was the best car I've ever owned, just bullet proof... hope the new product are still built as tough ;-)

They're the only newish 4x4 I'd consider having. Thought they were stunning when they came out, totally different from anything else. They'll have to drop a lot more in price for me though. Average ones are still £20k, that's a lot of cash for a tiny Japanese thing

Had a girlfriend back in the early eighties who had a Jimmny with a two stroke engine. She hated filling up on oil and the smell of it. I liked it. But she drove everywhere at maximum revs. And it was always screaming. To top it off, I was always terrified as a passenger. She had zero road sense and I had my eyes shut a lot. She eventually got an old mini minor, which was rubbish and she drove it identically.

Sure is a fun little car.

3:36 It also means the United States can't have it unless they move the taillights off the bumper. Can't be on the rear gate either. Damn US auto regulations... I really want this to come to the US!

problem is theyre sold out here in australia and i think in japan also!! nothing else on the market like them

finally!! a review that doesn't shoot down that sexy little beast

I wish they made it with a disel engine

im going to buy one, l fuckin loooooooooooveeeeeeeeee thiiiiiisssss

Is it worth waiting for? Absolutely - BUT I CAN'T! Mine is coming in 7 month!!

Impossible to buy one in UK - I've tried.

No matter how much people people like and say the K series is a good engine, you are always 100% better off with the Honda lumps.

No no no it's a jeeeehsus! Bar

AHH landrover had a baby

I want one.

I WILL MAKE DO WITH MY FIRST GENERATION SUZUKI VITARA, IT'S ABOUT THE SAME SIZE AND DOES ALL I ASK, IT AS A FEW MODIFICATIONS,,

Brainstorm: I send you a Ford Crown Vic and/or Lincoln Town car and you send me as Jimny. Deal?

Nah, looks like a Fiat Panda... Good review though :)

It really seems to be cool but in most of the countries you are on the wrong side of the road. ;-)

Like rocking horse shit these things no see one yet on the road

It looks more like the new defender than the new defender.

I think of the fancy range Rover's as bangers for £100000. Their reliability and build quality is total junk.

Got the old model......its great.....and simple....with no silly electronics .....this one has lost a customer with all the silly Assists that are just NOT needed in my opinion......WHY SUZUKI ? WHY !.

The last model was the worst riding car I have ever driven. Thumpy crashing ride. So this is better by the sound of it.

It's a cheap mans defender

You look strange!

G wagen rip off

hypocrit...all is good?...only pub.

Why can't American have nice things...???
