Isuzu F-Series

Heavy-duty trucks, 11 – 26 tonnes GVW

When the load outgrows the N-Series, the F-Series takes over. The FRR90N opens at 11 tonnes with 190 hp; the FVR90 steps to 15 tonnes and 706 Nm; the 6x4 FVZ34 tops the range at 26 tonnes and 280 hp, in cargo, tipper and mixer chassis. All are built for Kenyan duty cycles — long gradients, mixed surfaces and loads that are rarely as light as the docket claims.
