Product: Jimny (JB23) (MF-01X)
Tamiya is delighted to announce the release of a new model - and
chassis! The MF-01X is a brand new compact chassis set to revolutionize
the genre, and the all-important first model on this platform recreates
the legendary Japanese off-roader, the Suzuki Jimny. The Jimny, of
course, has been on sale as one variant or another since 1970, gaining
numerous fans thanks to its versatility and toughness. The JB23 depicted
by this model is one of the 3rd generation Jimnys introduced in 1998
which had a modernized, rounded body design. It featured a feisty little
fuel injected, turbocharged 658cc engine and was a popular car in the domestic Japanese market.
