Your Landcruiser Troopy specification sheet

The Toyota Landcruiser Troopy is the perfect car for game viewing on safari. This Land Cruiser model has six seats and a pop-up roof. These classic safari models are extremely powerful and reliable and with no electronics, made for the bush. Hence, note that the driving comfort on asphalted roads and features like the quality of the speakers can't be compared to cars manufactured nowadays.

The interior and tools

  • Pop-up roof: Yes. The pop-up roof can't be used when a rooftop tent is mounted.
  • Inverter: Yes, with socket and USB ports (type A).
  • Dual battery: No.
  • Water tank: No.
  • A/C: No. The reason is that the A/C can get blocked easily due to the bumpy and dusty road, and it's very challenging to fix this in the bush. Drive with your windows open.  
  • Audio: Radio with USB and audio port. Bring your own audio cable (mini jack) to play music from your phone.
  • Booth/canopy: The booth is small. We advise you to pack your luggage in soft duffle bags, which are easier than suitcases. If your travel group is six, you will store some bags between the seats inside the car. 
  • Rooftop tent: This vehicle can support one rooftop tent. 
  • Tools: Wheel spanner, towing rope, jumper cables, high-lift jack.
  • Extra's: Roadmap, Roadtrip Kenya practical information manual.
