This Suzuki Jimny 6x4 Is... Exactly What the Name Suggests
A decade ago, Mercedes-AMG shocked the world by actually selling a six-wheeled G-Wagen directly to customers. The ridiculous G63 AMG 6x6 may have come and gone, but your chance to own something in the vague shape of a G-Wagen with six wheels and a truck bed is not over yet. You just may have to settle for something a little smaller.
This Suzuki Jimny 6x4, currently for sale via U.K.-based Historics Auctioneers, is exactly what the name suggests: a Suzuki Jimny modified in the image of the most ridiculous Mercedes to leave an official factory in decades. The project started life as a regular Jimny, then England's Mocho Fabrication added an axle, two wheels, and bed-like bodywork to surround the extended portion of the mini-SUV. (Sadly, the last axle isn't driven, hence the name 6x4 instead of 6x6.)
An Audi-sourced shade of gray paint and custom quilted leather finished the project, bringing the Jimny 6x4 up to a higher standard than your usual custom six-wheeled sub-compact off-roader, if there were such a thing. The Jimny also comes equipped with aftermarket Apple CarPlay, making it an ideal daily driver for someone very worried about how their podcasts are displayed on their infotainment screen but not so concerned about how many wheels their Jimny has.
Unfortunately, Suzuki's choice not to sell the Jimny (or any other car since 2012) new in America means that this project cannot easily be replicated on another Jimny here and driven around the U.S. as a road-going car. That said, interested European-market bidders will be excited to hear that the Jimny 6x4 is a relative bargain, at an estimated auction price of $51,000–$64,000.
