2000 Suzuki Jimny · 4WD · 98,306 mi

Here in our US inventory: a 2000 Suzuki Jimny, finished in Silver, ready for a new owner. This is the 4WD version, with a manual transmission. Chassis number JB23W206244.

The JB23W Jimny explained

JB23W is the third-generation Jimny, launched in 1998 and built in Japan for twenty years. It is the kei-class version: a ladder frame, live axles on coil springs at both ends, part-time four-wheel drive with a two-speed transfer case and a low range, and the turbocharged 658cc K6A twin-cam. Nothing else sold in the kei class has that drivetrain, which is why the Jimny has a following far outside Japan.

The instrument reads 98,306 miles, roughly 158,200 km on its original kilometre scale. The Carry has been built continuously since 1961 and its engines were designed around sustained commercial use.

Reading the specification

The 4WD Carry is the default working kei truck in much of rural Japan. The layout is the orthodox one — cab over the front axle, engine under the floor, longest bed in the class for the length — with a front axle you select from the cab. On a farm track or a building plot that is the whole argument for it.

Mid-band pricing on a kei truck generally reflects a sound, unremarkable specification — the four-wheel-drive, five-speed, flat-bed combination that the majority of buyers are looking for in the first place.
