Next-Gen Suzuki Jimny

[aargh]

AFAIK the units the Philippines is getting comes from Suzuki Thailand. And an interview with a top honcho from one of the big 3 Japanese car companies has stated that the car entertainment system is always the first to be sourced locally even from CBUs from abroad, not just because the radio frequencies are different (as in the case for JDM cars) but primarily to keep the costs down.

TIL. This explains why the touchscreen in the Swift isnt the Android Auto/Apple Carplay advertised in other markets.

hehehehehe I don't care what stereo they put in. I like the looks of the new jimny. So retro. I will buy it even if it has no stereo.

The 1.5 engine in theory makes this more suitable for expressway speeds. Naayos na kaya yung steering wobble nito?

Suzuki has fitted a new steering damper on the front suspension to help smooth out ride quality. Plus the ladder frame is 1.5x more rigid so I guess this will help.
