A substantial tailgate lowered with the assistance of a gas strut gives access to the load box, which in our case was protected by a plastic lining.
As is usual with modern 4x4 pick-ups, the tailgate rests horizontally when dropped down. The presence of a bulky rear bumper, which incorporates a step, means it cannot be lowered completely.
Both the front and back bumper are painted the same colour as the body.
Eight cargo tie-down points are provided, and our demonstrator came with a towbar. Maximum braked trailer towing capacity is a very-creditable 3.5 tonnes.
