Pros and cons
What’s good
- Sub-1,500 cc customs tax advantage: Qualifies for KRA's lowest tax valuation bracket.
- Colt Plus power tailgate & 450 L boot: Provides station-wagon utility at hatchback pricing.
- High seating position: Delivers excellent urban visibility in city traffic.
What’s not so good
- 150 mm ground clearance: Requires care when driving over tall estate speed bumps.
- Firm rear suspension: Transmits bumps on corrugated gravel roads.
