Suzuki's small four wheel drive, the Jimny, has a touch of cartoon character about it. From the unusual name, which incidentally means 'little Jeep' in Japanese, to its tall stance, the car signals it is a departure from the norm. Despite the average pickings in terms of equipment, the Jimny represents fair value for money in the light 4WD segment. While never designed to be an overtaking monster, it was willing to be worked hard, sitting on a touch under 4000 rpm at highway speed. Unfortunately, this translates to high levels of engine noise in the cabin.
