The Suzuki Jimny is a line of four-wheel drive off-road mini SUVs manufactured and marketed by Japanese automaker Suzuki since April 1970 and now in its fourth generation. The fourth generation Jimny and Jimny Sierra were launched in Japan on 5 July 2018 with styling reminiscent of the earlier LJ and SJ Jimny generations. Production commenced in Japan on 29 May 2018 at Suzuki's Kosai plant. Subsequently due to its high CO2 emissions and tightening EU emissions standards the Jimny was withdrawn from sale in European markets in 2020 to be reintroduced in 2021 as a commercial vehicle (without rear seats and with a partition separating luggage space from the front seats) and therefore subject to a less stringent emissions limits.
