1500 engine and emissions would make it pricey for a small car in Norway they say due to import tax.

Sweden haven't imported any Jimnys the last ten years at least. And only a few wrong hand drive postal jimnys before that I think.

Edit: No swedish Jimnys after 2008 and only a very few before that.

Norway 2005 Jimny M16A VVT, 235 BFG MT, 2" Trailmaster, ARB rear lck, 17%/87% high/low gears.

I am pretty sure it will not come with a 1.5 engine. It will be the small, 1 litre, high revving engine with the turbo.

Makes sense for all the emission restrictions around the world. Not the ideal engine for off-roading but that is probably low on most owners priorities. Everyone is going small, even range rover is going down to 2 litre and smaller in the future.

As I think Martin is indicating, nothing is confirmed. The 1 liter turbojet and a 1.2 liter naturally aspirated engine seem to be the most popular rumors for the engine. We will find out for sure just before the debut. Personally, I am more interested in what the drivetrain specs are after the engine.

I started out with nothing & still have most of it left

I think it would be logical to have a simple and more reliable engine in a car like Jimny. Not these small turbo thingies.

Would be also interesting to know what is the bare minimum version. Do they make a model like my JX 2006 without power steering, AC, power locks or windows, painted bumpers etc :lol:
