Custom front and rear bumpers enhance protection and utility, while the SSII grille and black fender flares accentuate its rugged character.

The engine runs strong, and the transmission shifts seamlessly, delivering confidence on the road and trail. Four-wheel drive engages effortlessly, supported by power steering and power-assisted disc brakes that ensure responsive handling and stopping power.
