Suzuki – further commercial vehicles and small vans: collective page from the Carry and Jimny to the SJ410/413 and Sidekick, three- and four-cylinder engines from 26 to 136 kW, gross weights from 1.0 to 2.5 tonnes

This page gathers small Suzuki commercial vehicles and off-roaders used as vans that the register could not assign to a named series – from the kei-truck Carry, through the off-roader Jimny and its predecessors SJ410 and SJ413, to the Sidekick, Samurai and Vitara in commercial trim. The Carry is Suzuki's compact cab-over truck for the Japanese kei market and its export versions, while the Jimny, SJ series and Vitara/Sidekick, as rugged off-roaders, were also used commercially as pick-ups or estates. The SJ410 and SJ413 codes refer to engine displacement and generation, with a trailing Q or V denoting trim variants.

The register lists 69 versions here with 26 to 136 kW from three- and four-cylinder engines, 650 to 2,487 cm³ displacement, kerb weights of 612 to 2,015 kg, gross vehicle weights of 965 to 2,510 kg, lengths of 3,120 to 4,635 mm and widths of 1,320 to 2,250 mm.

The Carry is among the most widespread kei-trucks in Asia and is built under licence in many countries, while the Jimny and SJ series, as light off-roaders, are used worldwide in trades, agriculture and forestry; competitors include the Daihatsu Hijet and Honda Acty in the kei segment and the Lada Niva and Jeep Wrangler among off-roaders.

On Carry models, check chassis corrosion and the condition of the load bed; on the Jimny and SJ series, check axle play, the transfer case and underbody and sill rustproofing, which is especially vulnerable in humid climates. Parts for current models run through the Suzuki dealer network, while older SJ and Samurai model years are also sourced through off-road specialist parts dealers.
