Since the first generation of models, the pickup truck version of the Suzuki Jimny has been favored by the market. Under the limited body size, an additional small cargo box can fully combine Jimny’s personalized atmosphere and practical atmosphere. After the debut of the new generation of Jimny, aftermarket modification plans for Jimny pickups began to appear one after another. And recently, the pickup truck version of the Jimny was officially unveiled.
This proposal comes from a New Zealand aftermarket tuner for the Jimny.
Compared with the normal version of the Jimny, the pickup truck version cuts off the rear body and appropriately extends the size of the frame to expand the space for the rear cargo box.
The design of the cargo box adopts the shape of a typical Australian-style cargo box, with a simple and practical low fence and an integral gantry structure, which refines the side of the tool cart.
In the cargo box modification of pickup trucks, the Australian-style cargo box is known for its versatility and practicality. Therefore, this design has its own style in the Australian market. On the Jimny pickup, in addition to the convenient Australian-style cargo box, rear trailer towing hooks, pedals and other configurations are also added.
On the whole, after modifying the Australian-style cargo box, the image of the Jimny pickup is much more handsome and lively. Since it is based on the JX model, everything is simplified in terms of configuration, including steel wheels with better load-carrying capacity, steering wheel made of foam materials, traditional center console and so on. However, it is precisely because of these practical configurations that the pickup truck version of the Jimny further adds a tough guy’s temperament.
In terms of power, the pickup version of the Jimny is still equipped with a 1.5L four-cylinder power with a maximum output of 100 horsepower and a maximum torque of 140 Nm.
In New Zealand, the price of this pickup truck version will be slightly higher than that of the normal version, which is about RMB 97,000. Well, it’s still not very expensive.
