Only, it was badged as the Samurai.AdvertisementAdvertisementSuzuki sold the Samurai in North America up until 1995. Which, is when SUV occupant safety and rollover crash testing became major concern. Especially since SUVs exploded in popularity at the time.The last time Suzuki sold the Jimny in the States was with the Samurai in the 1980s and 1990s. - Credit: The_Dude_Abides via BringATrailerHowever, because that last '90s Samurai was based on a design dating back to 1981, Suzuki was unable to update the model to meet the then-newfound crash standards. Thus, the carmaker abruptly pulled the model from the market, and it's been absent since.Back in 2018, Suzuki made the world jealous by creating an all-new fourth-gen model. Though sadly, it remains off limits to American buyers.Today, the Jimny is alive and well, and about to get some slick new exterior upgrades. - Credit: SuzukiToday, the Samurai lives on as the Jimny in Japan and select export European and Asian markets.
