Camper-like petite customization is all the rage!
Outdoor hobbies and fun are all the rage these days, and the Suzuki Jimny is gaining core popularity as a vehicle suitable for the outdoors.[Image] The bed mat is a Cinderella fit! Camper customization of Jimny that can stay overnight in a car See the actual car
The absolute king of light XC vehicles, the Jimny has been loved for more than 50 years, but the current model (JB64/74 model) introduced in 2018 has grown into a popular vehicle that is supported not only by traditional Jimny fans, but also by a wide range of people.
Camper customization of the “”Jimny”” for outdoor activities
Despite being a light car, the Jimny has a robust ladder frame and is equipped with a part-time four-wheel drive system that provides reliable driving force even on rough roads.
While it is a full-fledged off-roader, its straight body lines and rounded headlights give it a retro atmosphere, and it is so popular that even girls who were not interested in XC vehicles before have become fans.
The Jimny is an ideal model as a base for customization, but what kind of customization can be done to make the Jimny even more attractive?
The “”camper customization”” is currently popular for the Jimny. The main idea is “”how can we make it easier to use for camping in a limited space? The main focus of this customization is “”how can we make it easier to use for camping by making the most of limited space?
Camping requires a lot of tools and cooking utensils. Solo camping”” and “”overnight stay in the car”” have recently become trends, and racks and carriers to carry bedding and other camping equipment are becoming mainstream.
We asked Mr. Horikoshi, leader of the Product Planning Group at IPF, which handles headlight bulb replacements and fog lamps for additional equipment that have become popular in XC and SUVs, about popular products and trends in Jimmy customization.
IPF has a strong image as a manufacturer of lights and lamps in general, but for the Jimny, we have developed not only lights but also special ladders and lamp stays that can be used to securely fasten lamps and are useful for camping and other purposes.
From 2021, we have begun developing the EXP Series, a new platform that can be enjoyed freely depending on your ideas.
As the name suggests, the EXP Series is designed to be expandable for use in various situations, such as camping and outdoor activities, and has become very popular.
In particular, the lineup includes products designed specifically for the current Jimny and Jimny Sierra.
The lightweight aluminum ladder attached to the rear hatch has special brackets and stays for attaching IPF lamps and American-made containers (for emergency supplies, tools, water containers, etc.).
In addition, we also offer a roof rack developed jointly with JAOS exclusively for Jimny, and the LED light bar (a horizontal auxiliary light mounted above the hood) that has become popular in the U.S., as well as special brackets and stays to securely fix it in place,”” says Mr. Horikoshi of IPF’s Product Planning Group.
IPF also offers items that may be useful for camping, such as a “”cargo extension”” that utilizes the headrest attachment area and a utility panel that can be attached to the rear side window (quarter glass), which tends to become dead space.
The camper version of the Jimny seems to be becoming very popular, with even long-established manufacturers of lamps developing items such as ladders, roof racks, and luggage space items exclusively for the Jimny and Jimny Sierra.
Camping girls are also taking notice! The “”Jimny”” light camper is hot! What is a practical outdoor customization that can be used overnight in the car?
Camper Specialist Shop Transforms Jimmy into a “”Tent Car””?
The customization of mini-vehicles into campers is currently gaining popularity, and while most examples are based on vans with superior interior space, more and more camper manufacturers are developing and selling products specifically designed for the current Jimny.In other words, it can be said that demand is growing not only for a light XC vehicle, but also for a camper version.
Customized Jimny camper that can use the interior as a bed
Toy Factory, which sells complete van conversion vehicles based on the Toyota Hiace (another name for van-based customization), is pioneering a new genre of customization based on the Jimny.
Toy Factory is proposing a new genre of “”tent car,”” a vehicle that falls somewhere between a tent and a camper, a vehicle that can be moved around, stay overnight, and be more easily enjoyed (outdoors).
The “”Full Flat Bed Kit”” was developed to fit perfectly inside the Jimny/Jimny Sierra.
The 60 mm thick comfort mat with anti-fouling and anti-bacterial measures is installed inside the Jimny’s interior, which would not lie flat in a normal seating arrangement.
By creating a completely flat space, we have devised a more comfortable overnight stay in a camper-spec vehicle.
Furthermore, this mat is split and can be stored in the luggage space. It can be mounted in the luggage space to save space.
The exterior of the camper is also characterized by not much modification, but Toy Factory offers a “”side stripe decal kit”” that can create a retro atmosphere, making it easy to enjoy customizing the exterior.

Camper customization of the Jimny is popular because it allows people to enjoy the outdoors with their car by adding practicality that was lacking while maintaining the vehicle’s driving performance.
The Jimny is attractive as it is, but by customizing it to your own taste, you can evolve it into a vehicle that will make you love it even more.

Wilder than the Outlander ! Mitsubishi “L200 / Triton” Look at the next-generation majestic appearance .
“Wider than the Outlander! Behold the imposing appearance of the next-generation
Mitsubishi Motors is currently developing the next-generation L200 pickup truck. The L200, formerly known as the Triton, is a 1-ton pickup truck that was officially sold in Japan from 2006 to 2011.
The current model, the fifth generation of the L200, debuted in 2014 and is sold in Asian and Oceania markets as the Triton, just as it once was in Japan. 2018 will see a major upgrade (launched as a new model in the UK), and the baton will finally be passed on to the next-generation model.
The L200 next-generation prototype was captured in a test mule in January, but this time it is in production form with the final design visible. The front end reveals a bold grille that incorporates the latest Mitsubishi “”Dynamic Shield”” design. Like the Outlander, the main headlights are positioned below slim LED daytime running lights.
Perhaps the biggest change is a mesh-pattern grille similar to that of the Nissan Navara; the L200 was jointly developed by the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance and uses the same architecture as the Nissan Navara. Many other components are expected to share similarities as well.
On the side, we can see streamlined styling and angled accents above the wheel arches, while the wheelbase appears to be stretched and will provide a fuller cabin.
At the rear, no major changes can be seen at this stage, but the taillights and bumper are expected to be started in the future. In addition, the next-generation model will shift to electrification, and the adoption of PHEV will be the main feature. The prototype’s exhaust pipe is connected to an emission monitoring sensor, so we can expect gasoline and diesel engines to be offered as well, depending on the market.
The world premiere of the L200/Triton is expected after 2023.”

Honda made a “minivezel”!How did the new SUV “WR-V” evolve? What is the difference from the “Fit SUV”?
“Honda has made a “”mini-Vezel””? How is the new SUV “”WR-V”” evolved with nuns? What is the difference from “”Fit SUV””?
Adopting a “”bezel-like”” design with hidden rear door handles
Honda’s Indonesian subsidiary (PT Honda Prospect Motor) unveiled its new compact SUV, the WR-V, on November 2, 2022. The first generation WR-V was a “”Fit SUV”” model, but what will the new WR-V, the second generation model, be like?Honda’s “”Mini-Vezel””? World premiere of the new WR-V SUV! What does it look like?
Honda’s second generation new model “”WR-V
The first generation WR-V was first unveiled in Brazil in 2016 and went on sale the following year in 2017.
It is characterized by a design that retains the atmosphere of the third-generation “”Fit”” (known overseas as the “”Jazz””) on which it is based, and traces of this design can be seen in the character lines on the body sides.
The front and rear were uniquely designed, and the minimum ground clearance was also raised, as was the case with SUVs. In addition to Brazil, it was also sold in India.
The new WR-V, the second generation model, measures 4060 mm (overall length) x 1780 mm (overall width) x 1608 mm (overall height), and while the overall height is the same as the first generation model (overall length 4000 mm x 1734 mm x 1599 mm), the overall length and width are slightly larger.
In the development of this model, local consumer surveys and driving tests were repeated in order to meet the needs of Indonesian users.
On the outside, the rear door handles are designed to be inconspicuous, creating a two-door coupe-like design. Combined with the horizontal character lines, the design shares some similarities with the second-generation “”Vezel”” (known overseas as the “”HR-V””).
The minimum ground clearance is 220 mm, which is designed to ensure drivability on rough roads. In addition, advanced equipment includes the Honda SENSING driving safety support system (grade-specific equipment) and a display audio system that is also smartphone-compatible.
The Indonesian-specification powertrain is powered by a 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder i-VTEC DOHC engine mated to a CVT transmission.
It delivers a maximum output of 121 hp and maximum torque of 145 Nm. This is said to be one of the highest performance levels among SUVs in the same class in Indonesia.
* * * *
The second generation new WR-V will be introduced to expand Honda’s SUV lineup in Indonesia (HR-V, BR-V (3-row seat SUV for overseas markets), and CR-V).
The model will be available in three grades: “”E,”” “”RS,”” and “”RS Honda Sensing,”” with prices ranging from 271.9 million rupiah to 309.9 million rupiah (approximately 2.55 million to 2.91 million yen).
It remains to be seen whether the car will be introduced in other Southeast Asian countries, as well as in Brazil and India, where the first generation was sold.
