Jimny specifications

This is a kind of catch-all page for Jimny specifications, including stuff like internal dimensions and similar.

Unlike many articles in here I will explicitly including 5 door Jimnys purely as there’s often not many

Some specifications that vary between markets e.g. types/locations of airbags will be different since I’m (mostly) sticking to Australian market vehicles, again purely because of where I am.
