What it means in plain English
Power — 108 hp, “Everyday”. Comfortable in Nairobi traffic and fine on the highway. Overtaking a lorry needs a long clear stretch.
Torque — 136 Nm, “Light”. Fine for a light car in town. It will feel strained climbing hills with passengers.
Ground clearance — 150 mm, “Saloon”. Fine on tarmac. Take bumps slowly, at an angle, and avoid deep ruts.
Fuel economy — 16 km/L, “Economical”. Easy on the wallet for daily driving. At KES 226.96 per litre of petrol (EPRA Nairobi, 15 Oct – 14 Nov 2026), 1,000 km costs about KES 14,200, 1,500 km about KES 21,300 and 2,500 km about KES 35,500.
Engine — 4 cylinders, “Kenya’s workhorse”. Smooth enough, economical, and strong when turbocharged — especially as a diesel. Parts on every street in Kirinyaga Road, and every mechanic knows them. The safest first-car choice.
