2023 5-Door Suzuki Jimny

[viper888]

I agree that someone who buys a Jimny is buying it because they wants to and they have other cars anyway

Which is why they will probably buy the less practical but cooler 2 door instead

From the review , + factor of the longer wheel base is better driving stability of course on top of space.

True that even in other parts of the globe, it is used majority for city driving . . Easy to park hehe and the + pogi/ganda points hehe

but when the wife says, "you next car buy will be a family car!",
the 5-dr jimny will probably satisfy the wife, and the so-called man-of-the-house.

Or, the Fortuner and other SUV near that price might stand out for wife, 7 seater pa.

A 4 seater car doesn't sound like a family car.

we won't know what we can get away with, if we don't try it...
heh heh.

the background story, for anyone who's interested,
hubby wants a 3 dr jimny.
wifey wants something bigger, for the family.
... "wife! here's our next family car! a 5-door jimny! seigh mo?"
"well... john and jean will sit at the rear. so that's an OK."


personally, the extra two seats at the back may just be the selling point of this new model.
"so why not a fortuner?"
"every other body has a fortuner or a monty or a terra. very few have a jimny."
the affordable exclusivity...

[foifoi05]

since looks have proven to be a big selling point factor, Suzuki should make their future models look retro.

imagine a boxy Spresso.


Then again, sa Japan marami na nga palang Kei cars looking Retro. If only we could have them

The 3dr Jimny have 2 back seats already.

Mas maganda access at comfort sa 2nd row compared sa 3dr.
Plus go anywhere small foot print. Hehe.

The 5 dr actually looks ok with larger tires

Nagmukha Tamaraw FX actually

i expect the 3-door to have rear seat space comfortable for smaller humen and grocery bags;
i expect the 5-door to have more comfortable rear seating for adult-size adults.

May side by side picture ba tayo ng Tamaraw FX vs Jimny?
Curious lang, wala na kasi akong makita nito sa daan.

Cant unsee that now

Its 5 inches shorter than a Tamaraw FX but almost the same height and width. Basically the same lol.

Can annoy friends who buy this by saying “Is this the new Tamaraw FX?”

Looks like same seat dimensions lang ang 5dr since 4 seater lang din. Yung rear cargo area lang actually ang naextend.

[dreamur]

Topgear did a review on seat capacity of the 5-seater jimny. Looks spacious enough if you are not a 6-footer.

So ang advantage lang ng 5dr from 3dr are the easiness of ingress/egress sa 2nd row and the extended rear cargo.
If may other features (ADAS maybe?) na wala sa 3dr, cgro it justifies the price gap.

[travajante]

The 3door is an ideal 2nd vehicle for solo/duo/student usage. Ticks my boxes.
There isn't any other in the market for those, like our kind, looking for a tiny footprint & simple easy daily body-on-frame live axled RWD/4x4 that goes anywhere, anytime, any weather.
The 5 will do for a lone car household....just me.[emoji4]

The jimny's small footprint is quite popular in the VisMin area where rural mountain roads are rough, narrow, and requires a reliable 4x4 system.
