does this two rigs rides on the same platform? do they have the same chassis and other pang-ilalim? are they're difference is only the body? tia

Japanese Jimnys used the short wheelbase body and a 660cc turbo intercooler gas engine.

Local Samurais (code:SJ413) used a long body with fiber top and a 1.3l carb engine.

same platform, different engine and body?

am i right?

[OTEP]

Pretty much the same. Same interior, trim, etc.

The Jimny was made to conform to the Japanese standards for compact utes which limit body size and engine size. The longer Samurai is sold in other markets.

Same as with the new Jimny. What we actually get here is called the Jimny Wide in Japan. We don't get the modern Jimny 660.
