Jimny’s one-of-a-kind 4×4 attitude and capability attracts off-road loving, fun-loving, style-loving legends. We call them Jimniacs. They’re out there in their Jimnys, having adventures, getting dirty, driving over stuff that is difficult to drive over.
If you’re a current Jimny owner – or just wish you were – this is THE place to get your Jimny fix. So, buckle up and get ready to smile until your face hurts!
Let’s make it official. Chuck in your deets and join the tribe to get first access to awesome Jimny offers, free stuff, discounts, merch and more. You’ll be in with a grin.
JIMFLUENCER CORNER
Halle (hals.jimny) is a Criminology and Justice student from Bundaberg, currently studying on the Sunshine Coast. She enjoys surfing, horseback riding, bouldering, camping, and 4WDing with her Suzuki Jimny, “Dusty,” which is the perfect companion for her outdoor adventures. Her favorite experience is when people in larger 4WDs underestimate Dusty, only to watch in surprise as it handles the terrain effortlessly. She finds their reactions priceless.
The Jimny rig she admires most is @the_little_rig, which is one of the most unique Jimnys and has accomplished Cape York.
Moreton Island is on her bucket list for its combination of beach driving, clear waters, and stunning dunes, making it her perfect adventure destination.
For an off-road recommendation, Halle highly suggests Double Island/Teewah Beach. With stunning views, amazing wildlife, and an easy navigation path, it’s a spot she loves. She also enjoys seeing other Jimnys there, and the surf can be a lot of fun, so she advises bringing surfboards!

Derek (jacko_the_zook) works as a physio, travelling around Australia to rural locations, and enjoys exploring these areas in his Jimny, which he has nicknamed “Jacko The Zook.” In his spare time, Dez enjoys surfing, going to the gym, hiking, practicing martial arts, and going on food adventures. One of his most memorable experiences with his Jimny was crossing the Nullarbor and exploring the beautiful white beaches of Esperance.
Dez is particularly drawn to the impressive overseas Jimny builds like @yodathejimny and @iron_bison_jb74. Closer to home, he admires the Ute-chopped Jimnys of @the_little_rig, @bustalime_jimny, and @toyzuki_4x4.
The Old Telegraph Track on his way to the tip of Cape York is on his bucket list.
For an off-road recco, Dez suggests driving on 75 Mile Beach at K’gari. It’s a stunning beach where you can drive for miles, with beautiful scenery and plenty to see and do, making it a highlight of any trip.

JIM’S FAVE RIDES
Track / location: Moreton Island
Description: Moreton Island is a paradise for 4WD enthusiasts, with its expansive sandy tracks, crystal-clear lakes, and stunning beaches. Known for its towering sand dunes and the famous Tangalooma Wrecks, it’s the perfect destination!
Level of difficulty: 3/10
Best time of year to do it: Spring/Summer
What you need to know before you go: Make sure you have recovery gear, you’ll need to book the ferry prior to your trip and don’t forget to book your beach permit & camping online! I highly recommend snorkelling at the wrecks, and driving to the desert to sand board the dunes.
JIMNY FEATURES
Jimny, the compact, go-anywhere, off-road superhero, isn’t afraid to roll up its sleeves – and has enough grunt to tow a tinnie and trailer up to 1,300kg (braked), or 350kg without brakes. Fun times on four wheels or no wheels – it’s your choice!
JIMNY GOES GLOBAL
Cop this… did you know that in some places around the world, Jimny is a crucial member of the police force? In Italy, the special forces police (or Carabinieri to locals) have 10 Jimnys in their vehicle fleet. These decked-out Jimnys are able to reach difficult-to-access places other vehicles simply can’t.
A little closer to home, the Royal Papua New Guinea Constabulary also has a fleet of Jimnys in their police force, helping them to access mountainous areas.
JIMNY SPEC
Yeah, your Jimny already looks amazing without even trying, but imagine an interior that changes colour with your mood! It’s super easy to achieve with the Jimny footwell illumination kit, available at your local Suzuki dealership.
Make your Jimny interior glow in seven different colours – from warm red to cool ice-blue. There’s a colour for every day of the week. And because it’s a genuine Suzuki accessory, you know it will work exactly as it should. Talk to your Suzuki dealer to get a glow-up for your Jimny!
