Pros and cons
What’s good
- Legendary Super Select II 4WD: Allows shifting between 2WD and 4WD at speeds up to 100 km/h with center differential lock.
- High 225 mm ground clearance: Effortlessly traverses deep ruts, mud pools, and rough upcountry terrain.
- Rugged monocoque chassis with built-in ladder frame: Combines extreme off-road rigidity with refined tarmac handling.
What’s not so good
- Higher KRA excise tax (>2,500 cc): 3.2L diesel displacement triggers KRA 35% excise duty rate.
- Firm rear suspension on rough washboard roads: Independent rear suspension requires proper bushing maintenance.
