SUZUKI JIMNY Common

As of 2026 Q1, 29,174 SUZUKI JIMNYs remain registered in the UK — still a familiar sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 32,017 in 2020 Q1 — only 91% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 2,843 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 532 a year (1.8% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2064 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer.

Originally belonging to the kei class, Japan's light automobile tax/legal class, the company continues to market a kei-compliant version for the Japanese and global markets as the Jimny, as well as versions that exceed kei-class limitations.
