Sukuki sell 30-40k cars a year..
VX for example sells that in a month.
Because you think it is the bees knees doesnt translate to sales, and it is a niche product that may be great offroad, but will never be used off road. it is a kei car so very small by uk standards
there may be a 1k waiting to buy but that is not every month, and clearly Sukuki doesnt see a point in trying to adapt it to the UK market, as it has the other cars in it's range.
You seem very invested in your campaign against the Jimny! I have no use for one as I need to tow but why do you hate them so much?! VX for example sells that in a month.

There's definitely a hidden agenda there.I thought Suzuki can't sell more Jimnys due to them raising their average emissions across the range, while the European laws have become more stringent. That's why they can sell them as a two-seater commercial due to different emission rules.
Obviously they can sell a lot more but are restricted by this. The niche seems to be quite large.

The sales weren't much greater than the old Jimny when it sold. For people that have bought one, yes it won't depreciate due to supply and demand. Well done.

Not every month? There has been a waiting list for the last two years. Cars that aren't in demand don't appreciate in value. there may be a 1k waiting to buy but that is not every month, and clearly Sukuki doesnt see a point in trying to adapt it to the UK market, as it has the other cars in it's range.

Our opinions of the car are irrelevant. Facts are that the Jimny is hugely sought after in the UK and Suzuki could sell every one they've shipping into the UK 3 or 4 times over.
The reason they're not bothering to update the engine choice is that they unable to build enough to meet demand worldwide as it is, so why would they?

They have built a car too popular so decided not to build another more, cone in are you making this up.Sukuki India has a factory that produces these for outside Europe so clearly they don't see the European market as viable , because as I've stated a few times they haven't bothered to the engineer to the hybrid drivetrain because obviously it just isn't worth doing.

They've got two factories producing the Jimny, there are waiting lists in every country and the modified commercial Jimny is also completely sold out What's the incentive for them to spend time and money integrating the Boosterjet or a hybrid setup into the car at the moment? There isn't one. Seriously dude, just stop, you're embarrassing yourself.

Once sales eventually drop, that's when they'll release a model with different engine.

not for Europe, Sukuki himself said no more being built so not sure where you are getting that information from. No new model and considering the last was nearly 20 years can't really see the point. It is ot me just making this up it is written facts by Sukuki himself. It is you Dude making yourself look a fool, i can't believe you are arguing with something in the public domain, as clear as water.

Says the idiot trying to pretend that Jimnys aren't hugely in demand. :Rolleyes:
They are in demand, just not enough demand to reengineer them for European sales and you call me the idiot., you must be tired from hitting you head against the wall everyday. And again as I pointed out 4 times but you seem to ignore this was the decision of Sukuki himself not me which for some reason you can't seem to comprehend....
''Suzuki has since confirmed the Jimny will stop being sold in 2021''.

Does that quote specifically refer to it being no longer sold as a passenger car in Europe?And again as I pointed out 4 times but you seem to ignore this was the decision of Sukuki himself not me which for some reason you can't seem to comprehend....

I don't think they're going to step selling the Jimmy full stop in 2021.
They're releasing a new stripped down version in Australia soon, with no alloys and no Android Auto head unit (and other electronics removed presumably as a reaction to the semiconductor shortages). Suzuki are doing this to try to satisfy the insatiable demand for the car - waiting lists are huge.

You keep saying it, but the info you have is still wrong. 400 Jimny commercial models this year for the UK, with ongoing sales beyond 2021. Not sure why you insist on flapping your gums about a subject you're entirely ignorant about?And again as I pointed out 4 times but you seem to ignore this was the decision of Sukuki himself not me which for some reason you can't seem to comprehend....

We are taking about the passenger vehicle not the van. Flapping gums, not sure what I've posted is wrong, you seem to have the personality of someone very aggressive who flings insults to get their point across, which has been wrong. It is like you take this personally. Again if there really was all this demand they would just use the drivetrain. They gave and sell as passenger vehicle, which they haven't done. So you are clearly talking bs, the demand us y enough for sukuki to properly adapt it to mass market not just a van

LHD one, whats changed then? ''Sadly, it’s more likely that Suzuki is catering for demand in other markets with the creation of this new Jimny variant, ''
Also demand issue, Jimny used to sell 20k of last model in good times, that is 1600 a month every month. 400 a year is f
k all. Edited by anonymous-user on Sunday 20th June 08:34

Nope, you’re not alone. Another thread derailed by the ‘lastworditis’ flirts.
not really, loads of it is the most successful car every made, massive blinkers on, loads of demand, yet Suzuki have decided not to continue to sell the passenger vechicle in Europe, and focus on outside markets.Yet i'm the idiot daring to suggest the market and demand isn't big enough for Sukuki to reengineer it for the European market. Then links disputing this that show LHD car with comments saying yet again it isn't for the European market.
Yet i'm the one who hates Jimny FFS open your eyes this was decided by Suzuki themselves are you fanboys really that deluded. No thread has been derailed i was called out i just responded but it seems Jimny fans are about as nutty as Tesla owners.
