Why five doors no longer help Suzuki Jimny Suzuki stopped sales of five-door Jimny due to frantic demand by Suzuki Jimny prepared for the conquest of extreme off-road

Meanwhile, the original Suzuki Jimny is now on the rise, and all thanks to the five -door version, the production of which was launched in India. Recently, Suzuki decided to supply this model from India to her native Japan, and this caused a stir: there were so many people who wanted to buy a five -door Jimny that the receipt of applications even had to be suspended.

The five -door SUV differs from the standard three -door 340 millimeters with a wheelbase, the total length of the car increased by half a meter, to 3.9 meters. The equipment is fixed, you can only choose a gearbox – a four -speed automatic or five -speed “mechanics”.

Suzuki hoped to sell 1,200 such cars monthly, but in just four days an elongated SUV collected 50 thousand pre -orders – the demand in Japan much exceeded the production capabilities of the Indian plant.
