suzuki jimny

It is cheap and rugged, but expects anything beyond that and the Suzuki Jimny flounders. Off-road is the only place where this dinky 4x4 is any good, and even there it has to overcome the obstacle of a gutless 1.3-litre engine. At least low-range gears make it unlikely that you’ll get bogged down. The Jimny is built like a workhorse – chunky and clunky – and the ride isn’t much different, either. On Tarmac, it is bouncy and uncomfortable, leans something terrible in bends and has little grip. Getting up to speed requires hard revving of the noisy engine, and the din is joined by road- and wind noise to assault your ears from all angles.

The interior is basic and lacks the luxury items and quality you get in other small SUVs. Space is tight, too - its best see the Jimny as a two-seater and fold the rear seats down to extend the cramped boot.
