The Suzuki Jimny 5-door model was officially launched in the Australian market in January this year, and the model was named "Jimny XL". In the Australian market, the Jimny XL starts at $34,990 for the manual transmission model and $36,490 for the automatic transmission model, which is $3,000 more than the three-door Jimny model.
The Jimny 5-door model has an increase in overall length and wheelbase compared to the 3-door model. The overall length has been increased from 3,645 mm to 3,985 mm, and the wheelbase has been lengthened by 340 mm. This change guarantees more interior space, making the Jimny XL even more practical. In addition, with a ground clearance of 210mm and an angular exterior design, the Jimny XL still maintains the boxy style of an authentic SUV, especially the iconic LED headlights and sturdy trapezoidal frame, which both show off-road style and exude a rich atmosphere.
The Jimny XL is produced entirely in India and is equipped with a 15-liter mild hybrid petrol engine. The engine has a maximum output of 102 horsepower and a maximum torque of 132kgf*m。Power is transmitted through a four-wheel drive system and a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle measures 3,965 x 1,645 x 1,725 mm, has a wheelbase of 2,590 mm, and has an approach and departure angles of 36 and 47 degrees, respectively. In addition, the Jimny XL is equipped with a 9The 0-inch touchscreen and adaptive cruise control provide a more convenient and comfortable driving experience. According to Wichka, the pre-ordered Jimny XL is expected to be delivered to customers in the near future. However, if the JEMNY XL is ordered in Australia from December 5th, the expected delivery waiting period is around 6-9 months. This shows the popularity of the Jimny XL in the Australian market. In addition to launching the Jimny in the Australian market, Suzuki also plans to gradually introduce the Jimny 5-door model to the global market. First of all, the Jimny XL will start production in India, and it is planned to be launched in Africa, Central and South America, and other places. Given the positive response from the market, it is expected that more regions will be considered for the introduction of the Jimny 5-door model. Currently, the Jimny 5-door model is only produced at the Gulergram plant near New Delhi, India. The launch of the Suzuki Jimny 5-door model provides consumers with more options to meet the needs of people with different needs. With the gradual expansion plan of the global market, the Jimny 5-door model is expected to be popular in more regions and bring more sales opportunities for the Suzuki brand.
