Decades into the Jimny’s life, this JB64 generation hit a milestone the nameplate had never reached before: over 100 PS, thanks to a bump to 1.5 litres.
This Jimny generation had a soft-top built in exactly one place: the Canvas Top, debuted at the 1999 Barcelona Motor Show, came only from Santana in Spain through 2009.
The JA71, introduced in January 1986, packed a turbocharged, fuel-injected three-cylinder engine into a kei-class 4x4 — a surprisingly high-tech setup for something this small.
In 1987, this little Samurai actually outsold the Jeep Wrangler two to one in North America — serious 4WD buyers trusted its off-road chops over the bigger Jeep.
This Jimny almost launched in Germany as the 'Eljot' — until Disney's Pete's Dragon got there first and copyright trouble killed the name.
Suzuki detuned its own Jimny for the home market: Japan's 1976 Jimny 55 made less power than the LJ50 it had already been exporting since 1975, cut to fit new kei-car rules and emissions standards.
A special version of the original Jimny put the spare tire behind the passenger seat, which freed up room for two tiny rear seats that faced each other.
The LJ10's body panels were designed to fit within Japan's kei-car tax dimension limits so precisely that Suzuki had to reshape the original HopeStar body rather than simply carry it over.
