The Italian preparer Z.Mode launched a new version of the Suzuki Jimny adapted as a pick-up, which will cost $65,000 dollars.
And Suzuki Jimny might not look better than this version of Z.Mode, which for the occasion called «Golden Queen». Its name basically tells us that despite being a very capable off-road vehicle, it can also be very sophisticated and elegant.
These references are reflected in his exterior finishwhile its bodywork was adapted in a pick-up format, offering a prudent but practical rear cargo space. It is not the first project of this type of the company, but it is one of the most striking.
In Europe, turning Jimny into a small ‘cargo truck’ is no sacrifice following all. This, because in the old continent, due to emissions regulationsthe Japanese SUV is offered as a commercial vehicle, only with front seats.
Suzuki Jimny “Golden Queen”: A version to pay tribute
It must be said that this project has a special meaning, and it is that it was designed to pay homage by Giuseppe Quintavalli, the founder of Z.Mode who recently passed away. Among the modifications that this version brings, greater height above the ground is included with off-road upgrades.
We speak, for example, of a new angle of approach of 51 degrees and a departure of 60 degrees. There’s also an optimized suspension system and it’s shod with more grippy off-road tires. His nickname «Golden Queen» It is not in vain, because the design includes many golden details.
Its body was covered with matte black paint and as customization options, you can opt for a snorkel, winch, LED light bars and a net on the hood. In addition, there are a wide range of 15-inch wheel design options from steel, alloys or beadlock style.
Modified interior and powertrain
The interior was also personalized with dark leather and alcantara upholsterythe seams are golden and the logo was embroidered on the headrests of the seats «Golden Queen». The best thing regarding this project is that the modifications were not only visual and there are changes under the hood.
To the known 1.5 liter engine, a turbo kit was added with a Garrett T25 turbine, manifolds, injectors and a intercooler. The power rose to 170 hp y 270 Nm de torque, sending the force to all four wheels. The manual gearbox can be four or five speed.
Z.Mode said that this special edition Jimny will be limited to a production of only 22 unitsand is being sold in the market for $65,693 dollars, including donor vehicle and modifications. In Colombian pesos we would be talking regarding more than 315 million.
