- Horizon package adds $4k of 'adventure ready' extras.
- Available on Jimny 3dr and 5dr, manual or automatic.
- Jimny 3dr manual features tech upgrades.
Suzuki New Zealand's Jimny Horizon model is part special-edition for the range, but also a curious blend of old and new models.
Suzuki says the Horizon package adds $4000 worth of "adventure ready" accessories to pretty much any Jimny you want: 3-door in base or Sierra specification, 5-door Sierra (the only trim offered in the larger model) and manual or automatic across the range.
The Jimny Horizon features a package of genuine Suzuki accessories including an attachable Osagawa tent shade, roof platform and side door mouldings. The model wears a "heritage" grille and custom vinyl decals.
Horizon starts at $34,990 for the 3-door and $42,990 for the 5-door, increases of $2k over the standard models.
However, the Horizon package 3-doors are also a blend of old and new. The manual versions are an updated model featuring equipment that was standard on the 5-door from its launch, including a larger 9-inch infotainment display with upgraded OS and wireless phone projection, updated instrumentation and an adaptive function for the cruise control.
But the automatic Jimny Horizon 3-door models are still the previous version, sans the above equipment. Suzuki NZ says it expects an updated Jimny 3dr "in the coming months".
The current (non-Horizon) Jimny 3-door is now listed as a "preorder" model on Suzuki NZ's website.
