Suzuki Hits pause on Jimny 3 Door Automatic SUVs

The pause will be effective from 19th January 2023, until further notice.

Manual Jimny 3 Doors have been popular, but the level of automatic requests was completely out of control. It proves again that buyer preference has shifted from the once-dominant 3-pedal models

To that end, manual LITE and GLX back orders have not been to the same level, so the pause on automatics doesn’t extend to manuals..

There is also a problem with two-tone orders. Buyers who have ordered Jimny with two tone colour options are being asked to reconsider. Choosing a solid colour will help get them into the driver’s seat sooner.

Suzuki Australia General Manager – Automobile, Mr. Michael Pachota said this pause on sales was inevitable.

“Jimny 3 Door Automatic transmission back orders are through the roof and growing daily!  As such, based on forecasts with production versus order bank, we had no choice but to put a pause on taking orders for this variant”

Suzuki promises to keep us informed, so as soon as we know, you will too.
