Suzuki Jimny 5-door Enters the Southeast Asian Market: More Affordable than the 3-door Version Coming to Vietnam

Accordingly, the car will be distributed in the Philippines in the form of completely built units imported from India with 3 versions: GL MT, GLX AT, and GLX AT, with prices ranging from 1,558 – 1,708 million Peso (about 681 – 746 million VND).

This price is much cheaper than the expected price of the Suzuki Jimny 3-door (789 million VND) preparing to be launched in Vietnam.

The 5-door Suzuki Jimny is much larger in size compared to the 3-door version. The car’s length x width x height are 3,985 x 1,645 x 1,720 mm and the wheelbase is 2,590 mm.

In addition to the difference in size and door configuration, the design of the 5-door and 3-door Jimny is still the same. The car still has a boxy and rugged design, like a “mini G-Class”.

The car makes an impression with its round LED headlights, with automatic high/low beam adjustment. In contrast, the standard GL version only has Halogen headlights.

The 5-door Suzuki Jimny has a grille formed by vertical bars, along with 15-inch multi-spoke wheels, wrapped in 195/80 tires and a spare tire mounted at the rear.

In the Philippines market, the car has exterior paint color options such as: green, blue, white, and gray. Red – black roof and ivory white – black roof is only available for the highest-end version.

Regarding the interior, inside the 5-door Jimny, it is not different from the 3-door version. The car still has 4 seats and a luggage compartment with a capacity of 208L, which can be increased to 332L when the rear seats are folded.

The car has basic utilities such as: steering wheel with volume control buttons, analog instrument cluster integrated with a small multi-information display with a classic design, a 7-inch touch screen, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto support, and a 4-speaker sound system.

Customers who buy the high-end GLX version will be equipped with leather seats, a 9-inch touchscreen, automatic air conditioning, and automatic folding rearview mirrors.

In terms of safety equipment, the car features a range of driving assistance features such as: 2 airbags (GLX version will have 6 airbags), ABS anti-lock braking system, electronic brake force distribution EBD, electronic stability control, hill start assist, reverse camera, and rear parking sensors.

The 5-door Suzuki Jimny is powered by a 4-cylinder naturally aspirated gasoline engine with a displacement of 1.5L, delivering a maximum power of 105 horsepower and a peak torque of 136 Nm. This engine is combined with a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic transmission and the AllGrip Pro 4-wheel drive system. The car’s drivetrain has modes such as 2H (2WD High), 4H (4WD High), and 4L (4WD Low).
