Suzuki Jimny Street introduced – limited to 100 units

Suzuki-Jimny-Street-0

The quirky but loveable third-generation Suzuki Jimny has been given a new lease of life to keep it relevant despite being in the market for as long as 17 years now. Dubbed the Suzuki Jimny Street, the vibrant variant is limited to just 100 units and will be exclusively available for the Italian market.

Goodies on the outside include a pearl white and grey dual-colour scheme that’s offset further with the inclusion of bright orange accents on the hood scoop, fog light assemblies, side mirror caps, roof rails and dark grey alloy wheels. At the rear, the exclusive spare wheel cover features Jimny Street graphics and the Japanese character of Kyo, which stands for Japan’s former capital Kyoto.

On the inside, the bright orange treatment continues with said accent highlighted on the centre console and air-con vents. Added standard features include electronic stability control (ESC), tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), “eco” leather seats and a seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system with navigation.

Mechanicals remain the same with the 1.3 litre four-cylinder petrol engine pumping out a total of 84 hp. A sole five-speed manual transmission with low range and four-wheel drive gets paired to the aforementioned mill. The Suzuki Jimny Street will go on sale this July with a price tag of €19,900 (RM84,382).

    I don’t quite understand the astronomical price of Suzuki Jimny. With that price one could easily afford a bigger truck with much more comfort and power. It’s a very niche product.
