Pros and cons
What’s good
- The king of county exploration: Absolute benchmark for executive prestige, county government transport, and upcountry tours.
- 500 Nm 2.8L GD-6 diesel torque: 201 hp facelift engine delivers effortless high-altitude overtaking up the Rift Valley.
- KDSS Kinetic Dynamic Suspension: Hydraulic sway bar system eliminates body roll on tarmac while maximizing off-road articulation.
- Optional 150 L dual fuel tank capacity: 87L main + 63L sub-tank allows 1,500+ km long-distance cruising without refueling.
What’s not so good
- 2.7L Petrol engine feels sluggish when fully loaded: 163 hp 2TR-FE labors when ascending steep mountain passes with 7 passengers.
- High theft target for exterior side mirrors and spare wheel covers: Requires security etching in urban Nairobi parking lots.
