Who it suits

Bakkie buyers who want a lower-priced diesel double cab with a bit of mild-hybrid assistance. It has a 2.0 turbodiesel (120 kW, 450 Nm) with a 48V system and an 8-speed automatic.

Who should look elsewhere

Anyone hoping for big fuel savings or electric driving. Fuel use is claimed at 9.0 L/100 km and it cannot be plugged in. This version is two-wheel drive, and we have not found payload, seat count or 0 to 100 km/h.
