2024 Suzuki Jimny XL (5 door) review: 0-100 & engine sound 

The Jimny is too cute to say anything bad, I just love them👍

absolutely love this thing - suzuki keeping it real

Basic go anywhere type of vehicle. I wouldn't mind one. Speed in Australia is irrelevant anyway. Bad roads. Ridiculously slow speed limits. And getting even slower. A police force that ignores crime to concentrate on easy motoring profit. Ever increasing fines. Cameras everywhere to make the most of the fines. Anything faster than a push bike is overkill. These are good little offroaders. Again where speed often isn't much good. The price is a bit steep. And I wouldn't buy one if they left those road tyres on. 5 A/T swap, or walk. It would be even nicer with a bit more low down grunt. But I bet it would still leave a lot of heavy overpowered 4x4 for dead on most beaches. Weight is not your friend.

Performance wise, this is a throw back to circa 1970. Needs a bigger engine and the auto needs more gears - and so does the manual to get that highway speed rpm down to something reasonable. Again - so 1970s small car.

Excellent review. Very entertaining, I didn’t even need to skip any section. 10/10, you just earned a sub 👍🏽

I think you were referring to the 1.4lt turbojet from the swift, not 1.6!

Great video! Speed is pretty similar to a Suzuki SX4 1.6 I had. Btw, the car is not underpowered. It has a decent and normal power to weight ratio as many small displacement city cars, like 90's honda Civics. But people need to understand that gearing has a lot in play here. It's a car meant to be good at fuel consumption, simple for maintenance, and at the same time being able to go off roading (I've seen it going over really bad roads and mud, with the correct tires of course) by just throwing the 4H or 4L and release a bunch of torque. It's never been meant for going fast, none of previous Jimnys either. If course it's not a car for everyone. Many people would prefer a V8 and a bigger car. In my case after some very complex and expensive experiences with previous cars, I rather drive a daily car that is fuel friendly, able to go pretty much anywhere and have some fun, easy to maintain and fix (that's why I got one, in red as well haha)

My motorbike makes twice the power and about the same amount of torque. This reminds me of the first 1,500 cc - 1,600 cc’s when they first converted to fuel injection and unleaded fuel in the mid 80’s.

Awesome...the video follows the same exc template as the one you released years ago for the three door variant

It seems that the 2nd row of seats looks very high, and is less comfortable for long trips, but the first row is still adequate

Not a fan of the chrome grille or the back seats not folding flat. IMO the 3 door still has more charm

0-100 down a mine shaft.. yes.. otherwise it's a dangerous tin pot to be caught in.. under powered to say the least

Looks like a fun little car, but the price kills it.

Every car needs to be sold with a minimum 150kw.. You cant overtake in that on a hill

Great review, just had mine 3 weeks and like you found that some of the reviews about them on here were done by idiots. Love mine to bits.

All terrain tyres in that size might be hard to find.

I love my 5 door, dunno what all the fuss is about it being too slow...ever heard of 110kph? Anyhoo, Ive order a couple of Ramjets from Rocketdyne in case i need a little extra acceleration.

Like subscribed 🎉🎉🎉

lol needs what 3,200rpm to maintain 110km/h? in 5th? I used to own a 2008 Ford Focus with 2L NA i4 petrol and 4-speed torque converter, 4th was over-drive but the final drive was 4.25.1, so at 110km/h the engine was revving at 2,900rpm but peak torque (a measly 185Nm) was still around 1,600rpm away at 4,500rpm, that said fuel economy was very decent with an average around 8L per 100km.

Since this vehicle is offroad tyre pressure monitor is very very necessory.

Better 0-100 than the first 2.8L prados! 😂

Would've been awesome and more worth the price if it had a bigger engine, or same engine with turbo for something like 150hp and 220nm.

dear lord 15 secs 0-100... i will keep my ford ranger PXIII

A great urban runabout & is more than capable off road. You just have to transport it on a trailer to the scrub to keep ahead of the traffic! 🐌😵‍💫🤣

Price is ridiculous,,poor value imo

Way too expensive for a little car like this! You can get a LDV T60 for this price.

The price is nowhere near $35,000

At least it’s not pretending to be not dangerously slow like the utes. No digital speedo also. Suzuki hates digital speedo?

8.6?? thats me camry 2.5ltr!!

номер классный сср ещё одной с не хватает))) и будет СССР)))

With some ATs, a passenger and luggage, you would struggle to hit 110kmh. I know it isnt a sports car but 75kw is plain ludicrous. Overtaking on a two lane road, forget it.

Such a rusty underchassis for a current model. Bet this is a Maruti made in India. Known to rust quick compared to Japan-made Jimnys.

I'd rather a lifted Suzuki Ignis... Which this basically is, without the ego

It’s not built for this shit not a daily driver for most of the people sadly

Cars this slow should be illegal on the roads, extremely dangerous.
