Suzuki stopped sales of five-door Jimny due to frantic demand

The acceptance of applications in Japan was forced to terminate, as the number of people who wanted to buy a novelty surpassed expectations. Suzuki thanked for a warm reception of a five-door Jimny and apologized to the clients: the press release says that the demand is “much exceeding our production capabilities”. They promised to tell about the resumption of orders additionally.

In just four days, an elongated SUV collected 50 thousand pre -orders, although Suzuki hoped to sell 1,200 such machines monthly. It is easy to calculate that without a revision of the application plans, they will fulfill three and a half years! It is also hardly possible to easily increase production, because the five-door Jimny is produced only in India, and in addition to Japan among export markets there is South Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

The first clients from Japan will receive their long -drawn Suzuki Jimny in early April. Since demand exceeds the proposal so, the company canceled all the planned events with the new model. The fundamental difference between the five -door is a wheelbase stretched by 340 millimeters, and the total length increased by half a meter to 3.9 meters. The equipment is fixed, you can only choose a gearbox (4-speed automatic or 5-speed “mechanics”).

It is curious that two weeks ago, Suzuki allowed the resumption of official deliveries of cars to Russia. The representative office of the brand still works, and the office emphasized that all the processes are debugged, and after changes in the foreign policy, “Suzuki will not be long in coming.”
