2025 Jimny Sierra 5 door, is it still a Jimny. was created by Bob9863
If this is apparently what the new Jimny Sierra is going to be next year, but I just don't think it's a jimny any more.
Gone is the happy puppy dog appeal, and instead is something far too grown up. It's less like a jimny and more like slightly shrunken Jeep Rubicon.
it's both longer, and wider, big wheels and side steps, so it's going to be much heavier and the only thing they kept from the Gen 4 is the 1.5lt engine.even the rear tyre on the back is gone, the increase in ground clearance is the only good point that I can see.
if they kept the 40lt fuel tank, that could be a real problem.
possibly worse, it's also coming as a pick-up.
I really hope it's a late April fools joke.
I'm curious about other people's views on it are.

There's a lot of "Al" reviews online about the "Jimny Sierra" but the regular five door Jimny is definitely available, which looks identical to the three door but with a longer wheelbase and two extra doors.

It looks like a fake to me. A lot of what they bang on about in the 2025 5 door already exists in the 2024 5 door.
The wheels change design in almost every scene, they look bigger than 15 inch, to get ground clearance?, but then it’s got the same engine and it looks heavy, so will be underpowered.
Finally you are right it’s a bling copy of the Jeep, even the door hinges. Suzuki advertise cars in the UK as ‘Good Different’ meaning they are different to other makes, but in a good way, this fails on both counts.

But it's got a 7 slot grille. It's not even a good fake.
