The all-new Suzuki Jimny has been spotted completely undisguised ahead of its official debut on July 5. Based on these photos posted online by Creative311, the fourth-generation model’s retro styling appears to be a throwback to the first- (LJ) and second-generation (SJ) Jimny.
Despite the boxy shape, the new Jimny still adopts a few cues found on the third-generation (JB) model. For instance, the large headlamps frame a five-section grille and the fog lamps are tucked away in the corners of the bumper.
In other areas, the new car is decidedly different, with more muscular wheel arches, angular window frames and a raised bonnet. The rear hatch also appears to be more practical thanks to a larger opening, with the taillights pushed downwards – slot for the spare tyre remains.
The interior also gets overhauled in the new Jimny, with a framed infotainment screen located on the dashboard. This requires the air-con vents to be placed further downwards, followed by the aesthetically-pleasing climate control switchgear. The new steering wheel and instrument cluster appear to be taken straight from the latest Swift, albeit with slight revisions. To match its rugged exterior, there’s also a grab handle ahead of the front passenger.
In other brochure images, it seems the Jimny will be offered in a Sierra variant as well. If the name is any indication, expect this variant to feature even more off-road-inspired styling. Referring to the grainy images, an exterior styling kit and revamped interior are among the enhancements.
The leaked brochuers also confirm the Jimny will soldier on with a ladder-on-frame construction and an all-wheel drive system. Engine options are likely to include a 1.0 litre turbocharged three-cylinder Boosterjet engine and a 1.2 litre four-cylinder DualJet unit.

Hey Jimny boy, please come MY now! The previous gen was well priced circa rm90k.
If they had built a pick up truck version, it will be cheaper. Just place a small cargo deck behind. There are some privately built jimny pick up around.
Jimny is still ugly as ever since the day i was launched.
There there, no need to be so harsh on yourself.
When were U launched? Lols

Its good if p1 can rebadge this…..i mean if p1 still fully owned by local.
No worries. P1 2.0 will rebadge this. Terima kasih for ur taxpayer money.
wish we still had suzuki in malaysia, always had a soft spot for them
This Suzuki Jimny is the worst jap 4x in Malaysia. most passengers vomited after riding in it as it handles and ride like a SAMPAN.
This jimny nameplate should actually rest in the grave by now.
Jimny not built for comfort. More as a workhorse for japanese farmers.
