The new body, which is longer,
lower and wider than before,
apparently was designed
under a team-focussing theme
known as “Street Wolf”.
flat. For me the most interesting
version in the four-model range
was the entry-level car, using a
2,4-litre engine and a six-speed
manual gearbox to drive the front
wheels. This is the only petrol version in the range, and the car has
fairly basic spec, offering on this
model only two airbags. But it sells
for a very enticing R379 995.A lot of
car for the money.
The other models are equipped
with six airbags and all employ
the more punchy 2,2-litre diesel
motor, and prices range from
R499 995 for the two-wheeldrive version to a heady R634
995, this range topper offering
plenty of extra spec, seven seats
and all-wheel-drive. Warranty is
at an impressive five year/150
000 km, and as for servicing,
the entry level car gets a fouryear/90 000 km service plan
while the more expensive models enjoy a five year/100 000 km
maintenance plan.
