2.4 Double Cab 4WD (148 Hp) Verdict:

Rating 3 stars

Performance Verdict

Offers adequate performance for a petrol pickup, feeling smoother but requiring higher revs to access its full power, especially under load compared to the diesels.

Fuel Economy

Significantly less fuel-efficient than the diesel variants, particularly when loaded or used for towing, making it a more costly option for heavy use.

Best Use Case: Lighter duty, urban and suburban use, regions where diesel is less preferred or available, and for those prioritizing smoother petrol engine characteristics.

Pros and Cons:

Pros:

  • • Robust and durable build quality
  • • Excellent off-road capabilities (4WD models)
  • • Strong and torquey diesel engine options
  • • High payload and towing capacity
  • • Good value as a used workhorse

Cons:

  • • Basic and utilitarian interior design
  • • Firm ride quality, especially when unladen
  • • Limited modern safety features
  • • High fuel consumption for petrol variants
  • • Dated styling compared to newer pickups
