by The Suzuki Jimny 2023 lineup has been expanded with the long-awaited five-door version. The compact family SUV was unveiled at the Auto Expo in New Delhi. This is reported by Focus.
The new Suzuki Jimny 5 door will be produced in India, where it will go on sale starting in May. The model is expected to be available in the European market by the end of the current year.
The extended Suzuki Jimny retains the familiar rugged design and differs from its shorter counterpart only by an additional pair of doors and narrow windows. It is approximately 34 cm longer than the standard model.
Suzuki Jimny 5 door dimensions:
- Length – 3985 mm
- Width – 1645 mm
- Height – 1720 mm
- Wheelbase – 2590 mm
Of course, the five-door model has become more spacious inside but remains a four-seater because the rear seat is narrow. The trunk of the Suzuki Jimny has also been enlarged. Another innovation in the interior is the improved multimedia system with a 9-inch touchscreen.
In India, the new Suzuki Jimny will continue to be equipped with a 1.5-liter 105 hp gasoline engine, but for Europe, it will be complemented by a “mild” hybrid system from the new Suzuki Grand Vitara (which will increase the power to 116 hp).
5-speed manual and 4-speed automatic transmissions will be offered as options. All versions will come with all-wheel drive with a low-range transfer case.
