Suzuki Philippines has given its Jimny a much-needed safety boost this 2026. Now standard on the 3-door variant of the small off-roader is Suzuki Safety Support. This brings advanced driver assist technology to the iconic 4x4.
Suzuki Safety Support is a suite of preventive safety technologies designed to help avoid collisions and reduce driver fatigue.
The system includes Dual Sensor Brake Support II (DSBS II), which uses a camera and laser sensor to detect vehicles or pedestrians ahead. When a potential collision is detected, the system issues audio and visual warnings and can automatically apply the brakes if necessary. In addition, Adaptive Cruise Control uses the camera and millimeter wave radar to help maintain a preset speed while intelligently adjusting acceleration and braking based on traffic conditions ahead.
Further enhancing confidence behind the wheel, Lane Departure Prevention provides subtle steering assistance when the vehicle begins drifting outside its lane, while Lane Departure Warning alerts the driver through audio, visual cues, and steering feedback. The Weaving Alert function monitors driving patterns and issues a buzzer-like sound and dashboard warning if unusual drifting is detected. Meanwhile, High Beam Assist improves nighttime visibility by automatically switching between high and low beams depending on surrounding traffic and lighting conditions, activating at speeds of 30 km/h and above when the headlamp switch is set to auto.
Beyond Suzuki Safety Support, the Jimny 3-Door also receives practical interior and convenience enhancements. GLX variants now feature a new nine-inch infotainment touchscreen that delivers a more modern and intuitive user experience, complemented by a newly updated colored display in the information gauge cluster that replaces the previous red-orange graphics.
Meanwhile, both GL and GLX variants now benefit from the addition of Front Side Airbags and Curtain Airbags, further strengthening occupant protection in the event of a collision. Front parking sensors are now standard across the range, making maneuvering in tight spaces easier, while the GL variant also gains a reverse camera for added convenience and visibility when backing up.
The 2026 Jimny 3-Door with Suzuki Safety Support is available in the following variants:
- Jimny 3-door GL MT – P 1,293,000
- Jimny 3-door GLX AT – P 1,355,000
- Jimny 3-door GLX AT 2-Tone – P 1,365,000
