Key life triggers: Why the Honda HR-V is the smartest choice for young drivers

An enterprising Suzuki Jimny owner has stretched their off-roader and given it a tub and another pair of wheels, and now they’re putting it up for sale.
There isn’t a lot of information about the modified Jimny, but Reddit user willg7777 claims to have completed the conversion themselves.
It uses the same naturally aspirated 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine as the regular Jimny, with no modifications made under the bonnet.

“Was thinking of tuning engine but it was a case of how much money do I spend on the project. Also was thinking of putting a body kit on it to make a mini G wagon 6×6 but decided to keep it Suzuki Jimny,” they said.
According to the Reddit thread, one of the last two axles isn’t connected to the motor or steering column, basically performing as a “lazy axle”. The owner claims this was due to budget constraints.
It’s not clear where the Jimny is located or how much the owner will sell it for.

The 2024 Suzuki Jimny is available exclusively with a naturally aspirated 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine producing 75kW of power and 130Nm of torque.
It’s mated to either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission, with a four-wheel drive system featuring selectable low-range gearing.
Locally the three-door Jimny range opens with the Lite manual for $30,490 before on-road costs. The recently launched five-door Jimny XL, which uses the same engine, opens at $34,990 before on-roads.
