Proton Jumbuck
Need a small-sized versatile pick-up that is economical and fun to drive?
Check out the Proton Jumbuck. It comes in two different trims. The GLS and GLSi have a 1.5 litre 12 valve petrol engine that's married to a 5 speed manual gearbox. The Jumbuck has the ability to handle a payload of 645kg on the rear deck, and has a built-in rear rollbar. The rear also sports multiple tie-downs with removable grommets. There is even a grille on the rear window for protection should anything in the bed break loose.
The interior of the Proton Jumbuck is comfortable and sylish, with many optional extras available to the buyer depending on the budget. The number of items available as options, of course depends on the model type. Options may include air-conditioning, cloth seats, electric windows and mirrors, fog lights as well as an impressive Clarion stereo - with CD. There are multiple storage areas in the cab, with a bonus CD storage box mounted between the seats.
One of the Proton Jumbuck's key features is its fuel economy. The petrol in the tank is sipped slowly, and you are able to return a very credible average fuel consumption of just 7 litre/100 km. This makes the Proton Jumbuck one of the most economical pick-ups in the world. The engine, though frugal, is responsive enough with 66 kW and 126 Nm of torque.
Take a moment today to take a Jumbuck for a test drive. You will see that value, comfort and economy are at the top of the Jumbuck's brag list.
