That I can see... And probably you are right :(. But I would have liked one from Suzuki not from someone else :(

If Suzuki decides to produce some modern looking prototypes whose pictures can be seen on the web, it would seem to me it doesn't see this segment and / or this design any more useful (just maybe because it's not profitable)

That's true they can not sell many of these cars out of China... But still that wouldn't make my design of a Grander Jimny less useful and less attractive. Would it. I would like to pay a handsome amount if it were available

I think the length and width of this car is the same as the original Jimny's. It is meaningless with 4 doors. We need the extra cargo space behind that's why we are stretching it, and extra comfort inside and that's why are widening it....

You should check the dims on my drawing I guess

There are plenty of larger 4x4's out there the success of the jimny is its size why would you want to alter that ?
Just buy a vitara if you want something a bit bigger
