With talks of the Suzuki Jimny being locally assembled in Indonesia, Autonetmagz mentioned that the waiting list for the Jimny has reached 60 months or 5 years.

It is estimated that orders for the Suzuki Jimny have exceeded 3000 units, and Suzuki Indonesia is only able to fulfill 50 of them per month due to import restrictions (the Suzuki Jimny is currently imported from Japan). This gives a rough calculation for the waiting list of around 60 months or so.

To refresh, the Suzuki Jimny is powered by a 1.5-litre naturally-aspirated 4-cylinder engine that makes 102 PS and 130 Nm of torque, mated to either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission, plus part-time 4-wheel drive system.

Back in Malaysia, there are reconditioned units for sale priced at circa RM 150k, and are readily available.

The 5-year waiting list exceeds even most, if not all, the ultra-exclusive supercars/hypercars. And you thought waiting 6 months for the Proton X50 was long. So, would you wait 5 years for a Suzuki Jimny?
