In this episode of Car Wow, the team delves into the extraordinary world of the unique six-wheeler Suzuki Jimny pickup. This beast stands out from the crowd with its bespoke leather interior, gloss black wheel arches, and a rugged roll bar. The modifications on this one-of-a-kind vehicle are not just skin-deep. From the painted exterior plastic to the blacked-out indicator repeaters, every detail screams exclusivity and boldness. However, as they scrutinize the rear end with its double rear axle and pickup tailgate, imperfections from the customization process become apparent, showcasing the challenges of such a radical transformation.

The journey of transforming this Jimny into a six-wheeler was no walk in the park. It involved a meticulous 6-month process, including individual vehicle approval and re-registration, culminating in a unique vehicle that turns heads wherever it goes. Inside, the leather-trimmed interior exudes luxury, though some finishing touches leave room for improvement. Despite its hefty price tag exceeding £40,000, the 6x4 Jimny falls short in off-road capabilities due to the non-driven third axle, impacting its performance and handling on different terrains.

On the road, the standard engine struggles to cope with the added weight, affecting acceleration and braking performance. The Jimny's handling characteristics, marked by constant corrections through bends and high noise levels at motorway speeds, paint a vivid picture of its on-road behavior. As the team pushes the boundaries of this six-wheeler version, they discover a mix of challenges and surprises. From increased noise and vibration to a playful oversteer that adds a touch of excitement, driving this unique Jimny is an experience like no other.
