Spec sheet: Nissan Navara

Experience the joy of driving our newest vehicle: the Nissan Navara. Featuring A/C, a roof hatch and a spacious canopy for easy access to camping gear and luggage. Sturdy, powerful and comfortable, the Navara is the perfect choice for Uganda’s mix of both highways and adventurous backroads. 

Both the Nissan Navaras and Suzuki Jimnys are brand-new additions to our fleet, purchased in 2025 and only in operation since December 2025. The Navara offers more interior space, a larger boot, and can carry up to two rooftop tents plus a fridge. The Jimny is more compact and can be fitted with one rooftop tent, but not a fridge. Compared to the classic Land Cruiser models, the Jimny and Navara are fuel-efficient, easier to handle, quieter, and offer a smoother ride, especially on asphalt roads.
