- It was time for Natalie to learn to drive the Jimny offroad. We joined the Suzuki Auto Club for their level 1 driver training. Our instructor Ryno, patiently ran everyone through the basics and by the end of the day we had a group of confident and excited drivers! It was great to learn how to maximize using the Jimny! So all in all we had a fantastic day at DeWildt 4x4 course, offroading and 4x4ing, really getting to play with the Jimny and have some fun!

You did the marketing for Suzuki Jimny better than Suzuki themselves. Now i really want this car
Already booked the 5 door version in India.. Excited
The jimmy is capable of doing something which can be expected from Land Rover, Jeep, land cruiser,
Love to watch the videos.
Even it can do what Mercedes G wagon do....
Hey guys!
I am Japanese.
Even if you order Jimny in Japan, you have to wait two years.
I have one in blue in UK 👍👍
Serious??
Readily available in jamaica
I don’t care, it’s worth the wait! To bad I can’t have one here in America because of corrupt politicians.
In Indonesia it's sold out everywhere, some dealer has up to 250 orders, and the wait time is 4 years. I don't get why they don't just shift the production to Indonesia or India where they have a big plant.
....brilliant video buddy...you are really promoting this vehicle...
those two inclines looked steep as F.... barely walkable, amazing what can these things do
All jimny owners are doing videos, that really is free advertising to Suzuki, and it's working ... I want it
WOW i am really impressed by the teacher who is so sympathic and really emphatic and you are such a cool calm and serious guy big congrats to you to your girlsfriend and your skills i felt so included to the harmony of your lesson and the fun while doin offroad one word great !
Thanks so much for the incredible feedback Felix! 👏🏻👏🏻
I am the first one to get a jimny in Djibouti, Very Proud and enjoying my driving experience
Awesome!! Congratulations!!
I love how happy she looked.
Me too! 😂
8:12 - 8:27: Great commercial clip that you could to Suzuki. They could use in a commercial of theirs for this Jimmy.
This video shows what the new Jimny is capable of, even in standard spec, a superb little offroader and okay on the highway too, ordered my Jimny in England in the first week of January 2019 and collected it in the first week of February 2020,certainly a lot more civilised on the road than my previous Land Rovers, it was worth the wait.
Well done design....reminiscent of the Defender. Squared boxy shape trucks are always timeless designs.
Amazed at what these little machines can do.
Amazing video man, had a smile on my face throughout the entire video.
Oh that’s so epic! ❤️
Well done Natalie! You did great. I did the L1 training in March. First time ever I was behind the wheel doing everything. Nice too see more ladies doing the driving.
Thanks Heidi! I'll pass on the message :)
Watching this today! So Inspiring! Can’t wait to go back behind wheels again! 🙏🏻😊
8:09 Sick! Excellent video. Properly enjoyed every second of it.
Fantastic! I’m so glad it was entertaining and and enjoyable bud!
grey seems like the best color
Came here to see Jimnies in action. Subbed for the videography. Your videos look AWESOME!
Thanks so much Sam! Thanks for staying!
Way cool! It’s a thumbs up from me. 😎👍
Awesome Jimmy ! ! Have ordered one in february... will be delivered march 2020. My Jimny2013 was hit by another car in january. Decided to wait for a new Jimmy, just love this car.
this is awesome. the video is underated, should
have million of views
Fantastico! Great video 👍👍😊👏🇮🇹
Haha. Bly jy het oorleef 😂
De Wild is AWESOME!!
Great vid.!!! Very well put together
Man this is some good quality story telling and video editing 💯
YanzoDaDon thanks bud!! Happy you tuned in!
Love your video and how simple but very nice setup you did with your jimny.
GREAT simple Fun video.
Thank You.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I booked a 5 door Jimny in India… it’s more a heart vs brain choice… Every time I get second thoughts I just come here watch this video. Your Jimny, flexing on those axle twisters, looks like an unstoppable brute !
I love your videos. Espesially those where you are together the two of you.
Wonderful training!! The procedure of first walking through the course is good. It's gives an idea of the inclination. Jimny capability is really awesome 👌👌👌.🤩🤩
hi tiger
I can't explain how bad I want a Jimny in the USA.
Give thanks to Consumer Reports and it’s fake campaign over Suzuki.
You would absolutely love it. Jimny and Suzuki bikes....the best.
I want one too. Bring it here
Just tell Suzuki to build a plant in the US. Donald will support it.
Canada as well!
Good video!! Enjoyed it
you can buy this vehicle, fit tyres and lockers and your set. LOVE IT
Awesome editing!!! And Jimny is cool as well ;)
Thank You!
Great Job! I think Nats a keeper!
How I wish to have a jimny😊
A car perfect here in the tropics😚
Throughly enjoyed that episode mate 💯🔥
Excellent! I’m so glad! 👏🏻 it was so much fun to make 👌🏻
wow!! cinematography is great. Great video!
Thanks buddy
Natalie seems like an easy going and an outgoing woman. I'm glad we're seeing more and more of her on your videos. Keep it up.
She is the best! I’m very glad to have a great partner in crime 👌🏻
Awesome video! Lekke man...
Hey bud, love your videos and the suzuki you have done some nice work on it. I'm getting ready to get a 4x4 again and loud love to join on a trip
It's gonna be launched pretty soon here in Pakistan, so glad to see your video. It's an amazing vehicle 👌🏻
And now its officially launched in pakistan
U guys have suzuki in pakistan? Aren't u guys having a war there?
Congratulations Natalie!!! Another amazing video. Waiting for more!
Love the Jimny... Very capable 4x4...
Great event! No one told how important it is to roll down the windows? Having them down half way is a no no. Keep the good vids going!
This is quality content 💯
👏🏻👏🏻 thanks bud!
She did brilliant. Great video!
I think she did too bud! Thanks for tuning in! 👌🏻
Really Amazing.. ..
You've got a good woman and a great little Jimny. Awesome Video. Happy trails my friend.
❤️
Your videos make me more and more jealous. We can't get the Jimny here in the states.
Wooww cool video. Good job
Nice rig !!!!!!!👍👍👍 Wish I could buy one in Canada 🇨🇦
Men your Jimmy can flex, hope they make a longer one just for more space.
Final goal of the journey. The barbeque!!!
Très bien, Bravo !!!
suzuki malaysia. please bring back this legend
Love how the music changed when you took over the wheel, because your missus was to scared to finish the hill, kinda like "this is how is done babe" moment ... Nah but in all seriousness awesome man. Love your ride
Hahah 😂 I got her permission to create abit of drama 👌🏻 she loved how the video came out too which is awesome 👍🏻
Man i wish we could import to the US
Everything is possible.
I see the front diffential, i like
Oh man , that Jimny is bad ass...and yes , is so satisfying to see that flexing and axles working....oh man , I want a Jimny so bad now :D
Hahha 😂😂 badass little beasts these Jimnys are! Glad you enjoyed it bud!
I like your vids! nice soundtracks also keep it up :)
Thanks so much man! I use Epidemic Sounds for my videos now. Loving it at the moment
@@RoamOverlanding cool! I'll check em out
nice bro 💖👌✌
Car is looking bad ass man 👍
Nice car adventure👍👍👍💖
"Mighty Mouse" SUV Great video review Subscribed
Another awesome video, looking forward to my next de wildt outing, still need to gather the courage for gert se klip.
Thanks bud! Yeah it’s certainly a mental game 👌🏻
@@RoamOverlanding agree 100%
I wish we have a good training ground & faculty for 4x4 driving here in the Philippines! And if we have, I'll matriculate. This a 4x4 for is a good skill set esp. during rescue missions since we are hit by about 20 typhoons a year.
Very valid point! Knowing how to 4x4 and safely recover vehicles in muddy and dangerous situations is a great skill 👌🏻👌🏻
Man! I love the editing and video quality, you really deserve more subscribers!
Btw, what camera are you using?
Hello Adrian friend ! Greetings from Romania
Good job you had all that ballast in the passenger seat at 9:00. 😎
Absolutely amazing video. And dude, she's a keeper!
😂 tell me about it! We planning an epic trip to Kenya next year and I think it’s going to be a beautiful one to film!
cool!
This car is like a small NINJA! (from Japan)
Also one of the best here in Philippines! 😍
I like its
Wish these where here in the states
It would be a perfect tourer if it has a Diesel engine a 70 litre tank
Nice
Better than the new Defender
Wait wait let the new defender come in the market and then give your verdict. For me both are good.
@@AamirKhanPathaan You are funny... We dont need it... I could buy here Jimny + cottage with like 5000+ square meters of land for price of new defender :,D
@@Valhallaaaa As someone who lives in Rural England at the mo...40 grand for a base unit is insane. I imagine when the commercial comes out it will have to be 10k less...minium
True, but old defender is the daddy.
pj tren yes ,old defender is the ultimate military workhorse ! Not all defenders are unreliable! The Land Rover wolf which is the military grade defender is the most capable military 4x4 which had won many wars along with Toyota 4x4s in terror hit nations of the gulf and Persian countries!
hmmm I need to find something like that in my area (country) for my cruiser xD
Natalie did very well
Very well set up wee truck you’ve got buddy. May there be many fun journeys ahead
Thanks bud! Definitely will be!
First comment 👍
Great vid as always
I absolutely love the look of the Jimny! Makes me consider one whenever I see it.
Only issue for me is it’s impractical storage capacity (though I love the minimalist size), but mostly the weak engine.
I test drove one and, although the manual transmission is smooth, it’s super high revving and quite underwhelming on takeoffs and high speeds.
They should’ve made a 1.6L engine at least.
I heard there may be a 5 door one..maybe that would have some storage issue fixed?
The 37" x 14.5" x 15" on my Jeep would look good on one of those🤣
Watch it again and again 8:15. Wow Jimny....
what camera are you using? video looks awesome
as no diff locks are yet available i therefore remind you that the m/t bfg km3 option will minimize the issues of grip and spin, without compromising blacktop performance or consumption
can't wait to personally testing them on snow soon, even though I've seen them perform extremely well
Not sure what you mean - there are diff locks available for Jimny. Maybe not on your market? For example this channel has them for ages: czcams.com/video/rr5W3F5Vxs0/video.html
I’m going to be playing with some Mud tires soon, especially for the summer season out here in SA
@@RoamOverlanding that's a sound decision which will give you the insight on m/t abilities in comparison to a/t yourJB74W is wearin now
Too bad suzuki isnt in the U.S. anymore. And too bad they didnt bring the jimny here for years. Probably would've boosted sales
Hey man love your videos. Wanted to know if the jimny has an adaptive cruise control and what's you fuel consumption in normal everyday driving??
Not on my vehicle hey bud! Consumption was between 9L/100 and 12.5L/100 depending on the wind and speed.
2:16, potjie pot on the roof rack! LEKKA
I want one of those so bad...
It's perfect in every way, including looking baller, which older jimnies do not, and fitting in my driveway sized for horses ^^
I somewhat can't wait for my curent car to die so I can justify getting one ^^
Hahah! Be careful what you wish for! It might just happen, and then you will have a beautiful Jimny and no money to modify it :P
Really nice. What is the cost of the offroad transformation kit on Suzuki
You are so cute little Jimny!
Hey. First I would like to thank you for your extremely well made, entertaining and educational content.
I would like to know your opinion about lockers on the new Jimny. Are you ever missing lockers when you are off roading your jimny? Does the Jimny really need lockers? Do you think lockers is going to be a future upgrade on your jimny? Thanks. 😊
Thank you so much for the kind words Andreas! I don’t think the Jimny NEEDS lockers, but it would feel safer having lockers that’s for sure. Traction control tends to have a jerky nature to it, so it engages quite suddenly, and works well but I would prefer the control of a locker. If you have the money for one, then go for it, but I wouldn’t go out my way to install lockers
Roam Overlanding Thank you for your reply! I am still waiting for my Jimny, so for the moment I am deeply occupied with planing what mods to put on it from the start. You have provided lots of inspiration. 😄
Another question: The larger Eezi Awn Roof rack, with taller legs, was that a straight fit? What model was the rack/leg combination originally for?
Wowzers what tires does the Kinetic Yellow Jimny have at 1:07??
Nice vid as always man.
They are 30”x9.5 I think
Jimnys are sweet.. I just wish they had a little more horsepower. I have a 2 door 1989 2 door Jeep Cherokee that weighs 3,300 pounds and has a 178 hp 220 lb ft torque engine and the Jimny weighs 3100 lbs with 80 horsepower engine.. The wheelbase is the most attractive thing to me about this vehicle.. you could go up and over just about anything with a little more juice I think. Reminds me a lot of my 2 door Jeep Cherokee.. shame Jeep hasn't made a worthwhile Cherokee since 2001 when they stopped the 4.0L Inline 6
I saw a 2 door Cherokee the other day, parked right next to my Jimny, and it was so awesome! Not much wider or longer, so very interesting vehicle! Would be a very fun build!
Hi, started loving the suzuki Jimny. I have one question, when you fold the rear seat for a child rear access, does the original driver position remains the same upon folding seat back or the driver needs to readjust seat constantly. A bit like Memory seat some vehicle have.
You will need to reset the seat every time
Hi, Thanks for your reply. In my country MU, we have it in GLX version. I was at first loving the renault Duster. Upon viewing all the videos of Suzuki Jimny, and its skills, i am unable to turn back to Duster. Part time 4WD is already available in jimny with LSD. In the duster AWD, the price would already jump high enough for me to take a 4x4 Mazda Bt50 2.2 Diesel Turbo. I have already made my choice. In terms of cargo space, it wont be a concern. I enjoy mild muddy, dry offroading and kayak fishing.
Have you done a video where you sit down and explain your setup? I like your videos but you always have a lot of extras in them.
As someone who is getting a jimny for their first 4x4 car i did enjoy this video but i would also love one that gives a good explanation into the gear and brands everyone uses as Australia does not have to much gear for the new jimny.
There is a comparison from unsealed 4x4 on CZcams featuring some modded Australian Jimny’s. The Roam Jimny’s bumpers are 👌 but unfortunately probably not available in Australia.
@@FJUH Ill check it out thanks!
Hey Rob, I am just waiting to settle my decisions on the vehicle build before I go out and tell people about it, I also want to make sure I have used and tested everything properly before giving you feedback 👍🏻
@@RoamOverlanding Ah that's fair enough. I'm just keen to get mine and start working on it :p
Mine is on order. Awesome video. Trying to get the wife into one too.
👏🏻👏🏻 congrats! You guys will have a blast!
