By providing ample space at the top of the windshield, heat impact on the drive recorder is also considered. CARMATE CO., LTD. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo, President: Masaru Tokuda) launched the new product "Visor Mount Folding Sunshade for Jimny," exclusively designed for the Suzuki "Jimny," on Wednesday, April 15th, via our official online store and various EC sites. This product employs a unique structure (patent pending) that allows it to be deployed and installed only when needed while remaining attached to the sun visor. It resolves traditional sunshade issues such as "troublesome to take out," "difficult to store," and "risk of scratching the car interior." It is available in two colors that suit the Jimny: silver and khaki. Please see below for details. *In vehicle front sunshades, this is our company's patent-pending structure that can be deployed and installed only when needed while attached to the sun visor. Based on publicly available information on the domestic internet, our company's research (as of April 2026). Development Background Vehicle sunshades, essential in summer, have the following issues. Especially for the Jimny, a vehicle with limited storage space, there were user voices stating "I can't find a place to store the sunshade" and "I end up not using it." Therefore, this product was developed with the aim of being "always in a fixed position inside the car, and quickly usable only when needed." - Issues with conventional vehicle sunshades - • Accordion type requires removal each time it's used and takes up space when not in use. • Umbrella type requires space for setup and storage and can scratch the dashboard. • Suction cup types tend to peel off easily. Product Features ● A Fit Uniquely Tailored for the Jimny This product is designed exclusively for the following vehicle models. Its design, tailored to the windshield shape, effectively blocks direct sunlight and suppresses the rise in interior surface temperature while achieving both a good fit and ease of use. Furthermore, due to its folding structure, PP material is used internally. To reduce warping and deformation due to temperature increases, the entire structure has a 'ha-no-ji' (Japanese character 'ハ' shape) perforation, creating a structure that can withstand high-temperature in-car environments (photo above). - Compatible Models - • Suzuki Jimny: JB64W / July 2018 – • Suzuki Jimny Sierra: JB74W / July 2018 – • Suzuki Jimny Nomad: JC74W / April 2025 – ● Industry First "Sun Visor Mount" Structure (Patent Pending*) The biggest feature of this product is its unique mounting method utilizing the sun visor. The structure, which secures the sunshade to the sun visor with a belt and buckle, prevents it from being a nuisance in the car when not in use, and allows for easy attachment and detachment without tools. It also achieves high practicality with no worries of unexpected deployment while driving. This structure is a new design currently pending patent. *Regarding the patent: A new structure using UV-cut fabric and an internal PP board, designed to be attached folded to the sun visor. The belt part is also designed to minimize variations in tightness when attached. ● "Instant Deployment" After Parking, Smooth Installation Simply unbuckle and unfold from its attached state on the sun visor to quickly cover the entire windshield. The deployed sunshade can be secured to hook-and-loop fasteners attached to the passenger side sun visor, allowing for smooth installation even from the driver's seat. Additionally, the upper central part of the sunshade has a cut-out designed to accommodate the rearview mirror, eliminating the need for mirror readjustment after installation. [How-to Video] ● Easy to Fold, Design Minimizes Interior Scratching PP board is used inside the fabric, and its structure prevents unintended bending in areas other than the folds, resulting in a design that anyone can fold neatly without confusion. Furthermore, with no exposed resin parts other than the buckles, there's no risk of scratching the dashboard or interior. ● Does Not Impair Sun Visor Functionality Even when the product is attached to the sun visor, the sun visor and vanity mirror can be used as usual. When adjusting for the angle of sunlight, it maintains the sun visor's appropriate position without dropping due to its weight. ● Khaki Beige Available, Suited for Outdoor Scenes Available in two colors: silver and khaki for the exterior, with black for the interior. Focusing on external appearance, the popular khaki beige, which stands out in Jimny and outdoor scenes, was chosen for the khaki color. The belt is primarily black with beige accents. The fabric material was also selected to match the Jimny. *For details, please check the link for the product number below (official online store).
