Since the new generation of Jimny was officially released last year, there has been a round of kit modifications based on the styling of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and Land Rover Defender in the global modification circle. So, this time and again, it really makes people forget that Jimny will look good with a little improvement.
Fortunately, a Jimny modification kit was recently released in the Japanese market, highlighting the original features of the Jimny. And it is worth noting that the modified style of this kit is based on the K-car version of the Jimny in the Japanese market. This was rare before.
Compared with the Jimny sold in overseas markets, the exclusive K-car version of the Jimny for the Japanese market has reduced wheelbase and wide-body kits in order to meet the requirements of K-car regulations in the Japanese market.
At the same time, the front and rear bumpers and other exterior details have also adopted a large number of retracted designs. In this way, even though the body remains the same, the Japanese K-car version of the Jimny is thinner and even a little thinner.
Under the definition of K-car, the changes in this set of kits did not enhance the aggressiveness of the appearance, only a 20mm lift for the suspension and a high-performance spring kit.
At the same time, 14-stage adjustable shock absorbers are used to provide different damping feedback. Therefore, the matching tire width still uses the K-car version of narrow tires, but it is replaced with black lightweight wheels.
In general, after such a set of posture optimization, the K-ar version of the Jimny is obviously more energetic. Of course, this car will not come to China.
