The Suzuki Jimny may be a cool off-roader that is bound to attract attention everywhere you go.

What We Dislike
Kinetic Yellow doesn't enhance the car's macho traits
It's not for the family man due to the lack of space

Review
I was really anticipating the launch of this car but when I knew of the price, I quickly turned away. 114k for a Jimny is really a ?!?!. That price I'll easily consider a Vezel hybrid, CHR or a VW Golf.

What I like
The ruggedness of its exterior.

What I do not like
The price and its outdated engine and interior.

Review
Gonna start off by saying - the 2019 Jimny is a looker! Rugged yet simple design inspired by the Merc G-Wagen but executed in the Suzuki style. No doubts about the off-road capability as it has proper Off Road gearbox and all. It is using a naturally aspirated 1.5L which makes only 100bhp mated to a 4 speed automatic box. Performance on-road leaves a lot to be desired. Interior is spartan and utilitarian as it should be for an off-roader. Good for couples but anything more is a squeeze.

What I like
Rugged exterior looks.
Real off-road credentials.

What I do not like
Price - $114k?!?! What on earth were they thinking? Many nicer cars can be had for that price.
Outdated engine and gearbox.
Not very practical.
