Capability

  • PERFORMANCE WITH PRECISION: Stay smooth and controlled on the job or trail, thanks to 3-position throttle control with different drive modes. Choose Performance for more response, Standard for everyday driving, or Work for improved low-speed control.

  • Every detail of the refined interior puts the driver and passengers first for comfort and convenience.
