Which cars rule the Kenyan Roads?

     If you are a Kenyan, or somebody from the diaspora who might have had the privilege of visiting this beautiful country, road usage is common and unavoidable. Think again! what do you notice? Perhaps, apart from the green surroundings and the noise from lousy idlers, Vehicles are common. The choice of Kenyans on cars starts with fuel consumption, availability and price of the spare parts, the re-sale value and so on in that order.
     These are the reasons why certain vehicles are common and can be seen almost everywhere. To be precise, Toyota rules East Africa and probably followed by Nissan. Japanese vehicles dominate these sphere of the earth because their engines are capable to drink the fuel by a straw. The common ones are Toyota Hiace, Toyota Hilux pick-up, The famous Probox, Toyota Corolla Fielder, Mitsubishi FH, Isuzu NQR, Nissan FB15, Mercedes Benz Actros, Toyota Landcruiser and Mitsubishi FN trucks. What makes these cars common is largely lies on these characteristics; they are fuel efficient, have better resale value and spare parts are readily available. Kindly comment on this blog as we digest features of these cars NEXT.
