The Tamiya 58614-60A Suzuki Jimny JB23 recreates the beloved compact off-roader with faithful styling and practical engineering. This JB23 rendition reflects the third-generation Jimny introduced in 1998, giving builders an authentic scale appearance combined with a rewarding assembly process.
The MF-01X chassis provides a robust, modular platform aimed at versatility and longevity. Multiple wheelbase positions let you tailor handling, and the mid 225mm wheelbase setting balances agility and stability for mixed-surface driving. Optional parts support shorter or longer setups for varied track or trail use.
A rear-mounted motor and 4WD drivetrain deliver consistent traction across loose or firm surfaces. The prop shaft transmits power smoothly to the front end while the independent double wishbone suspension soaks up bumps. Rally-style block tyres help the Jimny navigate dirt and gravel, and the kit ships without an ESC so you can fit your chosen speed controller.
New builders will find the Jimny approachable thanks to clear assembly steps, while return builders can fine-tune gear ratios and ride height. Upgrading to ball bearings and oil-filled dampers will improve precision and longevity. Painting the polycarbonate body is a simple way to personalise the finished truck.
Whether you want a display model or a weekend trail runner, the Tamiya Suzuki Jimny JB23 delivers a satisfying build and a versatile driving platform that responds well to upgrades.
