Nepal context
How it fits Nepal
Ground clearance, tyres and drivetrain matter on broken roads and steep approaches, so match the vehicle to where you actually drive.
Check the nearest authorised service point and the current Nepal warranty and service schedule.
Choose the trim for the equipment you will use most; higher variants can add substantial cost.
