While it’s common to find modified versions of Suzuki Jimny with even better off-road capabilities than the stock car, here is a custom Jimny that is really pretty fast.
Suzuki Jimny recently completed 50 years of existence. It is currently in its fourth generation and is presented as an SUV suitable for the budget. In fact, the Jimny’s basic features have remained unchanged throughout all these generations, as the mini SUV has always offered simple design, reliable mechanisms, and excellent off-road credentials. No wonder, then, that it has managed to make a name for itself in most of the markets in which it is sold.
The Suzuki Jimny has even become the favorite of many car customizers, who have created various add-ons to make this SUV an even better off-roader. However, the modified Suzuki Jimny you see here is different from several other modifications we’ve come across. This Jimny has a massive 200 PS power output and claims to be the fastest Jimny in the world.
This modified Suzuki Jimny has been created by Mr. Carlos Gono of Autoplus. This is the second fourth generation Suzuki Jimny owned by him. Shortly after purchasing this Jimny, it was released in a turbo kit developed by F-Performance, a tuner based in the UAE. The kit brought a turbocharger, custom fuel injectors, and a new ECU.
Gono has also added a discharge dump valve, Autoplus side exhaust system, RSR reduction springs, Autoplus rotors and brake pads, 18-inch Volk Racing concave alloy wheels, and Recaro hub seats. These modifications have increased engine power by almost double, as the engine now produces 200 PS. The owner has also got rid of the spare wheel to lose the weight by a few pounds. Also, for better heat dissipation and lubrication, Motul Race Grade 300V Motor Oil has been added to this Jimny Diet.
Suzuki Jimny made its local debut at Auto Expo 2020. Initially, Maruti Suzuki had said that he has no plans to launch this mini SUV in India. However, the great excitement that the Indian audience has about this SUV has probably forced the company to finally change its plans.
According to our sources, the Suzuki Jimny will enter our car market next year. It will be produced in the facilities of the company based in Gurgaon and will have a 5-door format. It will be powered by the same 1.5-liter K-series engine as the Ciaz. Currently, for the international specification model, the 1.5-liter unit develops 102PS and 130Nm. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual transmission and a 4-speed automatic transmission.
