Suzuki Philippines President Koichiro Hirao expressed excitement in the new evolution of an icon and added that the Jimny has become a symbol of adventure and innovation for Filipinos.

“The Jimny, deeply rooted in a rich heritage, stands as a testament to Suzuki’s commitment to excellence. Its popularity is not just a testament to its past glory but a promise of exciting journeys ahead,” he explained.

Meanwhile, Norihide Takei, director and general manager for Automobile Division of Suzuki Philippines, emphasized that Jimny stands as a lightweight, compact, authentic off-road vehicle capable of conquering diverse terrains.

Its sturdy square body not only conveys off-road capability and durability but also contributes to the driver’s situational awareness.

Meticulously designed to balance aesthetics and functionality, the sleek black interior avoids unnecessary colors or decorations to minimize distractions, allowing the driver to focus on navigating the vehicle.

The New Jimny 5-door GLX variant features SRS front airbags for both the driver and seat passengers, as well as side airbag and curtain airbags for occupants in both the front and rear seats.

Tuned for off-roading adventures with a powerful 1.5L engine, it also comes with a 340-mm longer wheelbase than the 3-door model.

The New Jimny 5-door offers monotone color options for the GL and GLX variants.
