Mahindra is offering a limited edition Pik Up Karoo Dusk to South African buyers. See specification and pricing details below…

The Karoo region in South Africa is not only home to sheep and goats, but the terrain is also ideal for 4×4 vehicles such as the Mahindra Pik Up. In fact, Mahindra has taken inspiration from this beautiful landscape and created limited-edition offerings such as the popular Pik Up Karoo and now the latest Pik Up Karoo Dusk.

The Pik Up Karoo Dusk S11 Automatic uses the S11 Pik Up Automatic as its starting point.

“The Karoo has a special place in South African culture. It is simultaneously known for its hard and unforgiving landscape and the openness of its hard-working inhabitants. That is what inspired us with the creation of the original Pik Up Karoo. Now we are stepping it up with the S11 Karoo Dusk, which is both stunning to look at, and ready for anything the road can throw at it,” says Rajesh Gupta, CEO of Mahindra South Africa.

Mahindra Pik Up Karoo Dusk – Key Features

With an uprated suspension, the Pik Up Karoo Dusk is more capable than a standard Pik Up.

Perhaps the most useful offroad feature of the Pik Up Karoo Dusk is its uprated suspension system which includes heavy-duty gas-filled offroad shock absorbers as well as heavy-duty, custom leaf springs and new suspension bushes which contribute to enhanced performance when driving over harsh terrain.

The Pik Up Karoo Dusk is wrapped in a hard-wearing matt black film that sets it apart from the rest of the Pik Up range.

The Pik Up Karoo Dusk is also equipped with a colour-coded sports bar on the load bin, side-mounted steel steps, over fenders and roller shutter. Dark blue decals with an acacia tree seen in the Karoo logo complements the dark theme. A set of black 16-inch alloy wheels with silver detailing comes shod with General Tire mud-terrain rubber and adds purpose to the rugged design of the Pik Up Karoo Dusk.

Offroad bumpers are also fitted. The rear bumper can be used as a heavy-duty step with a non-slip diamond plate as well as mounting points for a high-lift jack, recovery hoops and a tow bar. The front bumper has a powder-coated steel bush bar to protect the headlights and LED spot lamps, recovery loops and jack mounting points are also present.

As for the interior, key features include a touchscreen infotainment system with a reverse camera, Bluetooth phone connectivity and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability. Cruise control, climate control, a multi-function steering wheel and electric windows is also standard.

The Pik Up Karoo Dusk is powered by the familiar 2.2-litre turbodiesel engine with 103 kW and 320 Nm of torque which is mated with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
