The new Suzuki Jimny SZ5 is without a doubt one of the launches of the year. Visually appealing, with simple shapes, functional and without visual reveries, the small Japanese jeep has conquered everything and everyone.
As you can see in this video, its essence is pure off-road, but the work done by Suzuki in refining the Suzuki Jimny SZ5 on-road ends up impressing more than the expected off-road capabilities, which are excellent.
The interior is not impressive for its materials, and is more like a work vehicle, but nothing to say about the robustness of the assembly, which also impressed us.

As for the space, it's reasonable for four people, but you don't have a luggage compartment. We only have 85 liters of capacity.
As you can see in the video, the trunk is really the Achilles' heel of the little Suzuki Jimny SZ5.
I tried to put a backpack in the trunk and even that didn't fit… ok, it was also a big backpack but still! Luckily there is a way around this… watch the video.
Taxation complicates life with the new Suzuki Jimny SZ5.
Portugal and high taxes, a love story that unfortunately happened to us to sponsor. More than a romance, it has been a tragedy…

Due to this tragedy that drains our pockets, the prices of the new Suzuki Jimny start at 21 483 euros and end in 25 219 euros of the most equipped version. More than 50% of this amount is tax.
| Version | JX | JLX | JLX AUTHOR. | MODE 3 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Price | €21,483 | 23 238 € | 25 297 € | €25,219 |
Expensive? No doubt. Especially when we look at prices on the Spanish market, starting at €17 thousand and ending at €20 820, in other words, the more equipped version of the Suzuki Jimny SZ5 costs less in Spain than the base version in Portugal.
Despite everything, sales of the Suzuki Jimny SZ5 are proceeding at a good pace. Which only proves that the price is not everything, especially when the model in question has qualities that are worth in themselves.
