Thanks for that video, gives the best impression of the car I've seen yet. Load bay seriously practical now that the seats fold flush. Official global launch tomorrow! :)

One thing I've noted is that while both the approach (36 deg vs 34 deg) and departure (50 deg vs 46 deg) are better on the new model, the breakover angle is slightly worse, 28 degrees on the new car, 31 on the old.

I really hope this new Jimny has more leg room for the driver. I physically do not fit in the old Jimny and so cannot drive it!
