The Suzuki Jimny is currently offered in three-door and five-door configurations, but what about a dual-cab pickup variant? Rendering artist Theophilus Chin has envisioned just that, creating a compelling Jimny-based truck model. This idea is to bring the rugged and boxy aesthetic of the Jeep Gladiator to a smaller and more budget-friendly segment.
As expected, the digital illustrations were based on the elongated five-door Suzuki Jimny. However, the wheelbase was further extended to allow the ladder-frame underpinnings to accommodate a properly sized rear bed.

Additionally, the rear overhang is significantly longer compared to the donor car, adding more inches to its compact footprint. It’s worth noting that the five-door Jimny measures 3,985 mm (156.9 inches) long, making it shorter than many small hatchbacks.
The design of the rear bed takes cues from the larger Jeep Gladiator, evident in the pronounced taillights and the rear bumper with integrated steps. Similar to its inspiration, it features prominent Suzuki lettering on the tailgate. While the rest of the bodywork remains largely unchanged, the rear doors have been modified to no longer interfere with the wheel arches, thanks to the widened fender extensions.

Since the debut of the fourth-generation Suzuki Jimny in 2018, the little off-roader inspired several pickup conversions in the real and digital worlds, but none of them originated from the automaker. Still, if Suzuki was to launch a dual-cab pickup version of the Jimny, it would certainly need a stronger powertrain.
The currently available naturally aspirated 1.5-liter gasoline engine delivers 103 horsepower (77 kW / 105 PS) and 134 Nm (99 lb-ft) of torque. However, these figures may not be optimal for the payload and towing capacity requirements.
The Suzuki Jimny is set to undergo a mid-lifecycle update in 2024, which will coincide with the introduction of mild-hybrid and fully electric powertrain options, at least in Europe. Whether these updates will inject more power and charisma into the beloved 4×4 model remains to be seen.
