Spec sheet: Suzuki Jimny

The new Suzuki Jimny is a reliable 4x4 built for adventure. Featuring a roof hatch for game viewing, air conditioning, CarPlay, ánd a bold design. 

Both the Suzuki Jimnys and Nissan Navaras are brand-new additions to our fleet, purchased in 2025 and only in operation since December 2025. The Navara offers more interior space, a larger boot, and can carry up to two rooftop tents plus a fridge. The Jimny is more compact and can be fitted with one rooftop tent, but not a fridge. Compared to the classic Land Cruiser models, the Jimny and Navara are fuel-efficient, easier to handle, quieter, and offer a smoother ride, especially on asphalt roads.
