Suzuki Jimny Heritage: a special edition with retro details, limited to 300 units

Since it was presented back in 2018, the Suzuki Jimny has become one of the most charismatic off-roaders for undergoing modifications as peculiar as Damd or for being chosen as the basis for some special edition or other. In this case, today’s star is a limited edition exclusively for the Australian market that debuts a retro design with plenty of personality, reminiscent of the grandfather of today’s Jimny.

Under the name Suzuki Jimny Heritage, the Japanese brand has wanted to pay tribute to the long history of its legendary off-roader, taking 300 units of its Jimny in three-door form, which have been given a touch of exclusivity and personality through a series of decorative vinyls running from its side to the rear of the model.

Subtle special details

Available in white, green, grey or black, the Suzuki Jimny Heritage features decorative vinyls in orange and red that start behind the front wheel arch, run along its doors, wrap around the rear wheel arch and end behind the spare wheel mounted on the boot lid.

Along with the retro vinyls, the special edition features a sticker with the model and edition name, accompanied by a small rhinoceros below its C-pillar, and red mudguards since it is the GLX version, which give it that off-road touch that is so appealing in the small Suzuki 4×4.

Combined with 15-inch alloy wheels as standard and the characteristic round LED headlights, the Jimny Heritage also puffs out its chest with its standard equipment, which includes an infotainment system compatible with Android and Apple CarPlay, a leather steering wheel, GPS navigation, air conditioning, a rear-view camera, and safety systems such as lane departure warning and automatic emergency braking.

Mechanics and price

Mechanically, the Suzuki Jimny Heritage uses the naturally aspirated 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, which produces 102 CV and 130 Nm of maximum torque at 4,000 rpm, paired with a five-speed manual gearbox.

Finally, the price of this special edition for the Australian market will be around AUD 33,490, or roughly 20,894 euros at the current exchange rate.
