Suzuki Jimny (GJ): used car test – How To Cars

The angular charm of a baby G-Class brought the fourth generation of the Suzuki Jimny off-roader a lot of sympathy. Immediately after the market launch at the end of 2018, it drove into the hearts of those who wanted an equally compact, robust and affordable all-wheel drive vehicle. The four-seater, which is 3.65 meters long and 1.65 meters narrow, was available in the superior Comfort+ equipment for 19,985 euros.

However, the vehicle contingents were very tight right from the start and therefore sold out in no time. And the new vehicle career of the four-seat mountain goat was short. It ended in September 2020: high CO2 penalties spoiled the fun for the importer. Although he celebrated Jimny its comeback as a new vehicle in April 2021, but only as a two-seater truck variant from 21,915 euros – and with ever-long delivery times. What can prospective buyers expect today?

Suzuki Jimny used: still 26,800 euros after three and a half years

First of all, the prices are steep, several thousand more than the original price! Our three and a half year old test car from Jimny-Pro, dem car dealership Olaf Neven in Egestorf (Lower Saxony) costs an impressive 26,800 euros after three and a half years and 16,539 kilometers. The reason, in addition to the very limited offer, is the loyal fan base. They pay good money, especially for good cars with low mileage. A Jimny is often bought by dog ​​owners and hunters. In addition to the elevated seating position, the clarity and the turning circle of 10.5 meters are well received by city dwellers.

The interior is angular. In addition to plenty of honest plastic, it even offers a multifunction steering wheel, touchscreen infotainment and heated seats. More important than comfort equipment is likely to be the vast majority Jimny-Friends, however, will be the decidedly robust look, which charmingly contrasts with the wind tunnel-smoothed compact SUV monotony. In fact, the Jimny about tangible qualities: Under its cover it offers powerful drive technology that qualifies the flea for much more than visiting an ice cream parlour.

Workhorses driven off-road can have above-average wear and tear

All-wheel drive and gear reduction, together with a strongly twisting rigid axle chassis, 20.5 centimeters of ground clearance and ample angles of departure (37 degrees at the front, 49 degrees at the rear), guarantee remarkable off-road capability. The latter is both a curse and a blessing for prospective buyers.

Toys and workhorses battered off-road can suffer from underbody damage and, measured on mileage, above-average wear and tear on the basically very durable technology. While larger dogs also feel comfortable in the trunk with the two-seater rear seat bench folded down, the Jimny no car for horse stealing: below average trailer loads of 300/1300 kg (unused/used, up to 12%).

The well-behaved 102 hp petrol engine runs out of air early, even without an appendage. The preferred territory is therefore dirt roads, sand tracks and country roads at moderate speeds. From a speed of 110, tire and wind noise increase enormously. To the Jimny then there is also a lack of propulsive power, so that when planning the route you ideally choose the right lane of the motorway or country roads. Then the short translation and the sensitivity to crosswinds are not so important. To the Jimny Incidentally, one forgives one’s quirks: the dosed roughness is considered by many to be a special strength of character.
