@@ullie76 amen!
It's grandaddy, the Samurai SJ410!!
Jimny is just a miracle ❤️
You forgot the most important category, the cool factor! And the suzuki jimny wins hands down.
Hell nooo lol
Super JIMNY Sempre il numero 1!!!💪🏻🔥
It's tragic that Jimny's are no longer made in the USA. Fantastic vehicles for a good value.
Lol 😆 jeep is a much better vehicle
Very good comparisions. I love rubicon, but its too costly. And for the small state of north east india, Mizoram its difficult to own Rubicon.
But luckily , Jimny's going to launch in India too, in 5 door version.
I think the only aspects that would give the Rubicon the win are interior and diff lockers.
You can always add lockers to Jimny. Can't change size of wrangler.
@@Z3V5B0 This is the big version of the Wrangler. It is also the second most expensive behind the Wrangler 392. They make a 2 door that retails for about the same price that he quoted for the Jimny.
@@Z3V5B0 You do realize the Wrangler comes in a 2 door? Would have been nice to watch a more fair comparison of 2 door vs 2 door.
Both are exceptional and capable vehicles. However, the tests have many discrepancies and leave a large margin for bias thus producing inaccurate results. 🤷♂️
I tried coming up with challenges so the end result would come out about the same haha. I really love my Jimny but also a big Jeep Rubicon fan so i never want to call one of them bad or make them look like a complete loser 🙂. Will be asking for a lada , old defender , and many more offroaders for the future to make these kind off videos. Any ideas for cool and good challenges? Let me know ;-)
Very useful information. Thank u sir. From Bangalore. India
Even if anyone offered to switch their Wrangler or new Defender for my Jimny, I would keep my beloved Jimny. The only car I would trade with was a very pristine old Defender...
Try the Ineos Grenadier.
l've had both, and l would go with the old style Defender, in standard form the Defender was far superior to the Jimny offroad but worse on the road!!
you can accept a wrangler, then sell it and buy 3 jimny with what you get. LOL
I would only trade mine against a prestine Toyota Landcruiser HZJ. Dream car
@@hbombattaque that mindset we all need.
i have 2 ideas :
1: how slow can you go in 4L on a flat and also on a hill in all of the vehicles until the engine cuts out
2: tow something (trailer or so) on a muddy or sandy uphill in 4L as slow as possible (without use the solid axle lockers on the Rubicon)
why without the lockers? the jimmy is heavily modified and the jeep is stock but you won’t even let it use it’s stock features
Power-to-weight ratio Vs the heavy components Vs the stock production related did not take its forgiving utility required were the overweight vehicles becomes the power-to weight challenges
there is fine examples from early HMMWV or reconnected as Hummer under the 6.5 litre displacements although it was contracted to construct by General Motors but the displacement is heavy but the perfect solutions for utility is to set the gears at the lowest portion of low-end torque whilst driven by Automatic transmissions
although it did not runs over 100 kph but that truck can cross with viable considerations
Not really apples to apples, should have been a 2 door wrangler.. I've owned both and love both and really wish Suzuki would sell their jimmy in the States !
The Jimny is about 1000kg and 100hp , the Jeep is 2300kg and 380hp so it's got a huge power to weight advantage for the jeep 😁. But yeah i also wanted to buy a 3-4 year old Jeep at first. Also looked at a Lada Niva haha. But can't say the Jimny has disappointed me yet 😎
2 door jeep is still much heavier.
Maybe if Japan opens up their country to US made automobiles….
I am calling BS on that challenge. I still have Jimny daily driver and before that Jeep. NO WAY!!
Beautiful machines both they are!
You should test Jimny's articulation against Wrangler's, frame Bender, which one is easier to cross a mudpit in. Even better if it's a 2 door Wrangler
It's like buying a house. Buy what suits your needs. You can always upgrade. I'll take the Jimny
That intro is awesome
I own a Wrangler and a Discovery 4, yet I put down a deposit on a new Jimny today. Very excited but 8 months to wait.
Totally different cars. The lightweight Jimny makes you feel like your bum is touches the mud it's driving through 😁. The heavier more comfy off-roaders just don't give you that feeling.
In Japan, the production country of Jimny, the main grade is the engine displacement of 660cc.
The Jimny sounds way better
I have a Jeep and wish they sold Jimnys in the States.
@smokey your Jimny asked for a bath!! :)
Jimny is simply the best :)
You should climb over obstacles next.
Rocks, ruts, hills etc. that would be a good comparison to see the capability of both.
Wrangler has power, articulation, lockers etc. but the jimny has the short wheel base and lightness. Oh and charge the battery 😂
Jimny has everything it needs. Small enough to go around all the BS.
I respect the Jimny. Fun car indeed. Still my best car ever is the Wrangler TJ 2 doors. Now I drive the 4xE. Nice car, but a complete different véhicule from the TJ and the Jimny.
Yes it is , really love that 4xE!
Smaller tires point for jimmy
Darker paint point for Jimny
Shorter veihicle point for jimny
I can go all day long if I want jimny to win 😂😂😂
Keep it buddy!such as a funny guy there
Jimny is a affordable offroader light vehicle like Xpulse bike , you asked for Mahindra Thar it is same like Jeep Wrangler even the look and some features
Is there a 3 door Jimmney?
Need a Jeep with just 4 comfortable seats
Suzuki has done a great job with the Jimny. Can't wait for it to enter the Indian market.
Very entertaining video. Good Job!

Bro i am also waiting for this but don't know why Suzuki is not bringing Jimny to India , india already have Jipsy which is now almost discontinued no new model has come , Jimny should be launched in India
I'm really surprised to hear that it hasn't been launched in India, considering it's a much, MUCH larger market than Pakistan. We do have the new Jimny here, but it doesn't seem to have caught on as its price is around ~4.5M here. People looking to go for a 4x4 tend to want a lot of space, features and power for that kind of money. And they can get those in the shape of older land cruisers, prados, pajeros etc etc etc. Also, the sj410 (called Potohar here) hasn't enjoyed the following in Pakistan that it appears to have enjoyed elsewhere in the world. So...
@@AbbasBinYounas yes, we are also surprised why Suzuki is taking so much time for the launch. They are Working in a 5 door version of the jimny also.
The old gen jimny(called gypsy in India) was very successful. Only budget 4x4 we get is mahindra Thar. When launched jimny will be much cheaper than thar!
@@JaisiKarniWaisiBharniMynameHSD yes, jimny will definitely sell like hot cakes!
@@adithyavk1764 5 door does sound *really* interesting!
The SJ was never popular among the masses here. Only the middle-to-lower--class people who needed an off roader to travel to their hometowns in the hills and could only afford this 4x4 bought one. Otherwise it was only government departments who bought these. It was the same for the previous gen Jimny as well. I'm afraid the saga will continue...
I hope you guys get Jimny soon and get to enjoy them to your heart's content.
Both great vehicles. The strength of the jeep is in the gearing, wide track and articulation. It can do any kind of driving on any size tires with the 8 speed high / low. With the Jimny you have to regear for the kind of driving you want to do, I.e beach or rock climbing. But the jeep will always be heavier.
True, you'll see the 'Rock Lobster' mod in Gen 3 Jimnys where the transfer case is replaced with the lower geared one from the Gen 2. Both great machines but I'll stick with my Jim for how fun and small it is.
I could buy 3 jimnys and just one geared for each LOL...
Good entertainment, but no real comparison test.
Let me know what challenges you think would be good and entertaining. Gonna do more of these so let me know 😁
@@LifeofSmokey All depends on what you expect from your 4x4. Has it to be a working horse to tow trailers and take stuff over difficult terrain, a Jimny wil almost never be the best option. Is it to have fun playing in the dirt and sand, than the Jimny will probably be the best option in many cases. Is it to do rock climbing, than the Jimny will almost never de best choice.
To compare the fun and capability off-road, you should make a course or road-book which you drive with every 4x4 you want to compare and then look which one did the course the best (did not get stuck, did pass the obstacles the easiest, etc…) It’s not because you drive faster up-hill that the car is better, but what is your impression arriving at the top, which one gave the best feeling?
But this is if you want to do real comparisons, not if you want to make good entertaining. It’s a bit like the difference between Fifth Gear and Top Gear, the first do more real comparison, the second is more entertaining.
If you want a good base for real comparison, take a look at TFL off-road.
But all this said, I do like the entertaining part of your up-loads and that’s the main reason for me to have subscribed. But if it were only comparison of the Jimny with others, I also would have subscribed. I’m a Jimny addict. ;-)
@@ullie76 haha thanks a lot m8! Yeah for me it has to be entertaining. Made this video really quick out of my head. Didn't plan anything as i only had the Rubicon one day. That why i got my yellow go pro box as a starting line 😅. I really wanna do way more of these comparison cause they make no sense but are really fun haha. Next time i might even do a reverse drag race i have no idea 😅. Got many crazy stuff more planned , also with my future "budget offroader".... gonna be nuts i hope 😬🙈
Also i do ride motorcycles for a long time on and off-road but as far as 4x4 driving my skills are zero to none 😁
That is like comparing a battleship with a destroyer.
Great analogy. Im going to borrow that one its perfect haha. I love my 91' Samurai (California)
The Jimny is an awesome 4x4, Very good value for money.
That entry though
Proud Jimny owner is here from India 🤘♥️( Five door version)
i think you should do a off road Challenge so capability conform flex and tug of war
My Jimny has hill descent switch. Guess the Wrangler is better where lockers and articulaton count.
Any crap! I am a proud Jeep owner
I was hoping for a Tug of war with the two. 😉
If the Rubicon was owned by a friend we would have done that. But it's owned by Jeep Belgium so it's a press car. And i don't want anything to happen with it 😂. Next time it's gonna be against a friend's car and we will do one haha
@@LifeofSmokey Ah i see, understandable. Good content. Keep up the good work. 👍
@@LifeofSmokey I am 100 percentage sure that Rubicon will win that cuz of overweight and more power
If you just take your videos on 4k it was perfect!
4x4 driving isn't about dragrace
It is if you want to 😁
Traction control was left on the 4XE, twice i would cut power on acceleration.
amazing what people will do to attempt to put jeep in 2nd place. people and car companies have been trying for over 80 years to put jeep as second best off-roader. they discovered all you need is a youtube channel and you can make jeep come in 2nd place every time.
Suzuki Jimny is one of the best SUV, i like it
I have an idea. Who goes to the moon first wins.
downhill was not steep enough, no chalange at all for both
Jimmni sound sooo good
എന്നിട്ടും ചില മണ്ടന്മാർ പറയുന്നു ജിമ്നിയെക്കാൾ നല്ല ഓഫ്റൈഡർ താർ ആണെന്ന് 😄
മല്ലു fundas
quality video it so bad bro but i love how you compare keep doing it, Love your video
Sorry about that , it was all on the go and really fast. Next time it's going to be much better. Any good ideas for a battle? :-)
In india practicality is the USP. That may be the reason for the 1.5l engine and an extended wheelbase.
Jimny is small in length hence turning radius will be also small
Everything started from the classic Willys Jeep 👍
This brand new rubicon has some little Willys jeep logo's inside 😎👌
Nice Review .. Thank you bro 😎
no way 2300 kg vs 1500 kg family big car vs micromachines...
Hi smokey, what do u do for living?
Fulltime UA-camr 😌
Are you joking? A 2 door Jimmy vs. 4-door 4xe Jeep Wrnagler Rubicon and your first thing to compare is weight and cost? Great comparison. Jimmy would also be fast based on weight. And turning with a 4-door vs a 2-door. Be original and do a real comparison, not like all the other auto comparisons on UA-cam.
We where testing the Rubicon and the 80th Anniversary that day and making videos. I had the idea to go and get my Jimny and do some challenges. But didn't prepare anything so it's all improvised 😁. That's why i said , let me know what challenges would be good for the next time we do something like this. What do you suggest we do next time? 😊
Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 🔥💯👑. 🙏
The Jimny needs a good bath 😉
Working on it today 😁👌
I was going to say drag race speed depends on the driver and then the driver goes in reverse lol
I really like a Suzuki Jimny, but they are not available to buy in N. America.
7.7 Liter/100 KM? I get like 8.5 - 9 on the jimny. Using BF Goodrich AT KO2. Why such difference between yours?
Those are Suzuki and Jeep's numbers. They are always ridiculous low. Sometimes i think car manufacturers push their cars down a hill with the wind coming from the back when doing their fuel consumption measuring 😁 Mine is always around 9.5
Mine does 6 litres per 100 km or 45 miles per uk gallon
@@paulatterby7507 how? AT or MT? Tyres? Average speed?
Tarek, mine is completely stock, 3 years old and 39000 miles. 95% road use
Our country India Jimmy SUV is launch a 5 door
Is that a mud with a little bit jimny🙊
Es manual o automático tu Jimny?
Manual 😎
How about a test to see which one can climb the steepest incline, until one starts slipping backwards...? 🤔🙂
That is a heavily modified Jimny.
I was an admirer of the wrangler but now I am discouraged.
Make a tug of War
Very nice! Maybe snow could be a chalenge.... Just sayin'...
It only snows in my country every 2-5 years. And most of the time it's gone the next day 😂
@@LifeofSmokey Well, you should take Jimny somewhere where it snows 😀 Is your country Belgium?
@@mihaimihai9254 yep! Gotta drive couple hours before i find some snow haha
@@LifeofSmokey I'm sure you're gonna find a way.
Old vs new defender
Please put supercharger on the Jimny, and tell us if it's worth it!
Do one more test, do a drop test,drop the jimny and jeep from high altitude to rocks , lets see who survives
Bro, did you add a turbo to your Jimny?
Nope stock engine. Only air intake and exhaust haha
@@LifeofSmokey marvelous! So, did performance actually got better? Cause I'm thinking on doing that since my Jimny struggles going uphill on the highway... thanks for the answer!
@@kayakschoolmexico nope , chiptuning , exhaust or airintake are just for the sound of it. Performance you only need a turbo. The rest is al useless 😁
@@LifeofSmokey thank you!
The new 5 door is better inflinite times
This was a really cool video and I admit I was wrong about the Jimny 😅
I love the way you tested it.
I was thinking about buying one and that’s why I follow your adventures on UA-cam.
By the way if some Poeple want to see more about the Jeeps in action, I really love this channel and I want to share it : ua-cam.com/users/TheStoryTillNow
Ik ben mijn Nederlands een beetje vergeten maar ik zal zonder Google Translate proberen.
Dank U voor jouw video’s en voor jouw goed gezind.
Like your chanel, but ground clearence was not measured corectly
All of these challenges are just for the dun of it. Don't take it to serious , we all know the Jimny is the king 😅
👍
You seem to have some bias towards the jimny.
3 door Wrangler would be a better opponent
Is that a test for 4x4 ?
😂😂😂😂
👍😁
should of been 2 Door Suzuki Jimny vs 2 Door Jeep Wrangler Rubicon
You did not clean the interior of the jimny....It's a shame :-)
I did yesterday , spend all week driving and filming the 2 new Wranglers 🙈. Wanted to make a video of the cleaning proces 😅 sorry
Jeep wrangler my dream car how much it is?
This test is biased, because it is clearely said that the battery of the Rubicon is empty. So you have only 240 HP and not 380 HP, and also not the tork of the electric engine from the Rubicon. Not fair...
There was some time in between and we took it out for a drive so battery was working at full power 😁. All had to happen fast , and nothing was prepared. Got any ideas for better tests or comparisons? 😊
dont campare deer with buffalo
ne comparez pas l'incomparable, prenez un wrangler 2 portes
Wrangler 380hp 2300Kg , Jimny 100Hp 1100kg. The Rubicon has a huge power advantage 😁. The Jimny should have 190hp to be fair 😅
В лес, в колею их поставьте после тяжёлой техники, сразу будет очевиден победитель.
Why do UA-cam channels keep doing "off road races" it's not a proper off road test that nobody cares about when buying a vehicle for off roading
Any good ideas on how we can compare offroad cars so that everyone cares about? :-)
@@LifeofSmokey go check out driving sports TV and TFL they do proper comparisons of normal off road capability, traction, articulation etc.
Most people who own a 4x4 and go off road don't do drag races because you don't buy one for its acceleration. The hill decent tests however are very good and important.
@@JackInDaBoxx will do mate thx for the info 😉👌
Ist Green……?????
Fording test?
Explain champ 😁
@@LifeofSmokey Driving through deep water, I think
@@Martin-yc3mc yes
Yüksek vergilerden dolayı çok pahalı Avrupa'da 20000 Euro civarında bizde vergilerle 40000 Euro devletimiz alamıyalım diye uğraşıyor bu dediğim jjimny nın fiatı
I take the Jeep Anyday
Euro?? I thought this is from America?? Where is this video coming from??
The hideous Euro spec front bumper on the Wrangler gives it away.
Jimny 3 door, jeep 5 door. need jeep 3 doors
Good to know the result of the comparison/test but when it comes to looks, Jimny is a little too small so for racing in a slippery road it may crash easily.
I love your videos. However, you definitely did not use the proper Wrangler to compare to your Jimny. You should have used a 2 door Sport or Sport S with the 3.6 and the 6 speed manual. You compared a longer, heavier, 4 door with an automatic transmission hybrid vehicle to a shorter, lighter 2 door with a manual transmission gas-powered vehicle. You are comparing apples to oranges.
Jimmy has better mud tyres
Mate every speed test is useless because you had no battery
