Jimny broadens Horizons
Suzuki NZ has announced the arrival of the Jimny Horizon special edition, an exclusive local take on the compact four-wheel drive (4WD).
Available as three and five-door variants, it has been developed for Kiwis “seeking a practical, capable and distinctly styled compact 4WD for outdoor exploration and everyday versatility”.
The special edition adds more than $4,000 worth of adventure-ready accessories and unique design elements.
“The Horizon has been created to reflect the enduring appeal of the Jimny nameplate while offering a distinctive special edition tailored to local demand,” says Aaron Wales, Suzuki NZ’s national sales manager.
Externally, it features genuine brand accessories including an attachable Osagawa tent shade, roof platform and side-door mouldings. A heritage-inspired grille and custom vinyl decals further distinguish the model.
The Horizon features the marque’s Allgrip Pro 4WD system, low-range transfer gear, ladder-frame chassis and generous ground clearance.
Standard features include a touchscreen infotainment system, Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, smartphone-connected navigation, a tilt-adjustable steering wheel, auto light-sensing headlamps, daytime running lamps, fog lamps and Guide Me Light functionality.
Customers can choose between a five-speed manual transmission and four-stage automatic transmission, allowing them to select the configuration best suited to their driving preferences.
The Horizon 3-Door Sierra, which starts at $34,990 plus on-road costs, adds climate control air conditioning and headlamp washers. The 5-Door, priced from $42,990, extends practicality with four speakers, auto-levelling headlamps and 377 litres of luggage capacity with the rear seats down.
Both variants have six airbags, dual-sensor brake support, lane-departure warning, weaving alert, cruise control, hill-hold and hill-descent control, and brake LSD traction control.
