Pros and cons
What’s good
- Massive 570 L cargo capacity: Flat boot floor easily holds farm produce, business cargo, or safari gear.
- Sub-1,500 cc import duty advantage: Qualifies for KRA's lowest tax bracket and 20%–25% excise rate.
- Outstanding 25.0 km/L fuel range: Lowers weekly commuting expenses for Nairobi and upcountry drivers.
- Honda Magic Seats: Ultra-flexible folding rear seats tilt up or fold completely flat.
- Unbeatable 25–28 km/L hybrid efficiency: Drastically reduces monthly fuel bills for high-mileage commercial and family drivers.
- Sub-1,500 cc customs tax advantage: Qualifies for Kenya's lowest customs duty valuation category.
- Extreme market resale liquidity: Ranked #1 fast-moving vehicle in Kenya in 2026 with instant resale demand.
What’s not so good
- Modest 145 mm ground clearance: Requires cautious driving over tall speed bumps when fully loaded.
- Dual-clutch transmission care: i-DCD 7-speed DCT requires regular fluid changes to prevent clutch judder.
- Moderate 155 mm ground clearance: Heavy rear cargo requires cautious driving over tall estate speed bumps.
- Hybrid battery cooling maintenance: Requires cleaning rear seat battery cooling fan filters in dusty Kenyan environments.
