Great car with a dynamic 1.5 engine and a 7-speed automatic; a downside is the electronics, which often shut off—terrible when reversing!!! It could also have a bigger tank because it averages 7 liters and at most 700 km.

Suzuki Jimny

Brimming with raucous charm and unabashed off-road spirit, the Suzuki Jimny makes light work of rough tracks while remaining surprisingly at home in city streets. It's a cheeky, no-nonsense companion for buyers who prefer character over conformity — think go-anywhere attitude in a pocket-sized package.
