1996 Suzuki Jimny Turbo 4WD

1996 Suzuki Jimny JA22W Turbo 4WD – K6A Engine, Lifted, Wide Body, Fully Serviced The 1996 Suzuki Jimny JA22W represents one of the best iterations of the iconic compact off-roader — lightweight, turbocharged, and built with genuine 4WD capability. This model combines the toughness of the classic Samurai with modern comfort and engineering refinements that make it far more enjoyable to drive. Under the hood sits the K6A 660cc turbocharged inline-3 engine, delivering about 64 horsepower with quick turbo response and impressive mid-range torque. Unlike the carbureted Samurai sold in the U.S., the JA22W uses electronic fuel injection, providing smoother performance, better economy, and easier cold starts. Power is transferred through an automatic transmission and a selectable 4WD system (2H, 4H, 4L), giving this mini 4×4 real off-road ability. Another major upgrade over the American Samurai is the coil-spring suspension — while the Samurai used leaf springs, this Jimny rides on independent coil shocks that greatly improve comfort, handling, and traction on uneven terrain. This particular example is finished in rich brown metallic with a custom wide-body kit and lifted suspension. All four shocks are brand new, and it sits on custom wheels with fresh off-road tires, giving it an aggressive stance reminiscent of a mini Hummer. The look is bold, but the ride remains refined. Inside, the custom brown leather interior adds a luxury touch rarely seen in kei-class 4x4s. The cabin is clean, detailed, and comfortable — equipped with A/C, power steering, and all the essential features to make it equally suitable for city use or trail exploration. With 188,567 km (~117,200 mi) and no rust anywhere, this Jimny is fully serviced and ready to drive. It’s a collectible, capable, and truly unique JDM SUV — one that proves great things come in small packages Interesting Facts • The JA22W generation of the Jimny (1995–1997) introduced a more advanced chassis and EFI turbo engine — a huge leap from the older Samurai. • The K6A engine later evolved into versions used in Cappuccino and Alto Works, known for their strong reliability under boost. • Coil-spring suspension gave the Jimny better articulation and stability than the U.S. Samurai’s leaf-spring setup. • At under 900 kg, it’s light, nimble, and easy to maneuver off-road — a true kei-class off-roader. • The short wheelbase and low-range gearbox make the Jimny an excellent trail vehicle, even compared to larger 4x4s.
