Yes, it’s still small, slow, and lacks the polish of typical urban crossovers—but it’s brimming with personality and unstoppable on a trail. The extended wheelbase somewhat improves highway manners compared to the 3-door, though it remains a utilitarian option for daily drives. If you value charm and the ability to head off the beaten path, the Jimny’s compromises fade against the fun factor it delivers. --- ## **Pros & Cons** ### **Pros** - Classic rugged looks with added practicality in 5-door - Short wheelbase and 4×4 system yield genuine off-road heroics - Tiny footprint is a breeze to manoeuvre in city congestion - Retains all the charm that made the 3-door a cult success ### **Cons** - Four-speed auto and atmo 1.5 lack overt grunt - High-speed refinement remains subpar - Fuel economy can spike if driven hard - Dull interior plastics, limited practicality for large cargo --- ## **Specs** - **Body Style:** Small 5-door off-roader, seats four - **Platform:** Ladder frame with solid axles (front & rear) - **Launched:** 2018 (3-door), 2024 (5-door global), 2025 for continued Aussie supply - **Engine:** 1.5-litre petrol (75kW/130Nm) --- ## 2025 Suzuki Jimny Price ## Pricing – 2025 Suzuki Jimny Before on-road costs Jimny Lite (manual) $30,490 Jimny GLX (manual) $31,990 Jimny GLX (auto) $33,490 Jimny XL (manual) $34,990 Jimny XL (auto) $36,490 Let's get you a deal on the **Suzuki Jimny** [**Find me a deal**](#) × --- ## **Interior & Features** The **XL** seats four across two rows, with modest second-row legroom but far better access than its 3-door sibling. A **9.0-inch** infotainment screen (with wireless CarPlay, wired Android Auto) headlines the dash, matched by full LED headlights, partial digital climate controls, plus heated mirrors. Switchgear is straightforward, storage minimal, and tough plastics reflect its off-road orientation. --- ## **Engine & Fuel Economy** The **1.5-litre** inline-four (75kW, 130Nm) pairs with either a **5-speed manual** or **4-speed auto**, plus part-time **4×4** with 2H/4H/4L ranges. Official consumption is **6.4–6.9L/100km**, though real-world usage easily hits **8.0L/100km** in mixed driving. A tiny **40-litre** tank results in frequent stops on longer trips. --- ## **Image Gallery** ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/2025-Suzuki-Jimny-5-2.webp) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/2025-Suzuki-Jimny-7.webp) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/2025-Suzuki-Jimny-4-1.webp) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/2025-Suzuki-Jimny-3-2.webp) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/2025-Suzuki-Jimny-2-3.webp) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/Suzuki-Jimny-5-Door-1.webp) ![](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2025/02/Suzuki-Jimny-5-Door-2-1.webp) --- ## Expert Media Reviews CarExpert – 2025 Suzuki Jimny XL + **Score:** 8 / 10 "Adding two doors doesn’t dilute the Jimny’s playful spirit. Instead, it extends passenger comfort without losing any off-road credibility." **Link:** [Read review ](https://www.carexpert.com.au/car-reviews/2025-suzuki-jimny-xl-review?ref=carexplore.com.au) RACV RoyalAuto – 2025 Suzuki Jimny XL + **Score:** n/a "A modern-day throwback that remains tiny in footprint yet impressively capable, now more practical with the five-door layout." **Link:** [Read review ](https://www.racv.com.au/royalauto/car-reviews/suzuki/2025-suzuki-jimny-xl-review.html?ref=carexplore.com.au) --- ## **Safety Rating** No fresh ANCAP or Euro NCAP test of the 5-door. The 3-door’s **3-star** rating (2018 test) no longer applies. Standard kit includes AEB, lane departure warning (over 60km/h), six airbags, reversing camera, and rear sensors. The **4-speed auto** variants add adaptive cruise (40–130km/h) absent from the manual. --- ## **Eco Rating** No GreenNCAP rating. Official consumption is **6.9L/100km** (auto) or **6.4L/100km** (manual). The 1.5-litre engine’s rev-happy nature and short overall gearing can hike usage in real-world driving to around **8.0L/100km**. --- ## **Reliability Rating** Suzuki is known for sturdy mechanicals, though higher-mile usage of the 1.5-litre remains modest in Aussie conditions. The previous [Jimny](https://www.carexplore.com.au/tag/suzuki-jimny/) variants have proven robust, albeit some owners note minor QC issues. No major engine or transmission concerns have emerged widely. --- ## **Cost of Ownership** - **Warranty:** 5 years/unlimited km - **Service intervals:** 12 months or 20,000km - **Capped-price servicing:** 5 years ($2265 total) => $453 average - **Fuel tank:** 40L, only 91-octane needed Short gearing + small tank can demand frequent refueling on trips. Nonetheless, the Jimny’s mechanical simplicity often lowers some long-term repair costs. --- ## **What Does CarExplore Think?** The [**2025 Suzuki Jimny**](https://www.carexplore.com.au/tag/suzuki-jimny/)extends the beloved mini off-roader’s ability to seat passengers comfortably, addressing a key shortfall of the 3-door. While still no highway cruiser—nor offering particularly potent power—its unwavering off-road prowess, charming aesthetics, and everyday practicality make it a singular choice in a sea of small SUVs. For owners who crave genuine 4×4 capability without a huge footprint or budget, the Jimny 5-door’s old-school allure is hard to resist. --- ## Buy a Suzuki Jimny ![CarExplore Logo](https://www.carexplore.com.au/content/images/2024/12/C--3-.png) If you're looking to buy a new Suzuki Jimny, **CarExplore** can help you find the perfect match.
