Ready for off-road camping & adventures
The Delica gives you the space and practicality of a camper with the capability of a proper 4WD. Its selectable 4WD system has high range, a lockable centre differential and low range for tougher tracks. Add the 2-inch Dobinsons lift, Falken Wildpeak all-terrain tyres, and the 4M40 reliable engine, and it’s set up for weekends away and longer trips off the beaten track.
