On the TT2 Sambar

The TT2 is the four-wheel-drive version of the last Sambar truck Subaru designed itself, built from 1999 to 2012 with the 658cc EN07 four still mounted behind the rear axle. Fuel injection was standard across this generation and a supercharged EN07 was offered in the range. Because Subaru switched the Sambar to a Daihatsu platform afterwards, the TT2 is the final four-cylinder, rear-engined kei truck anyone built.

The recorded reading is 90,000 miles — somewhere around 144,800 km. Subaru built the rear-mounted EN07 for the commercial duty cycle these vehicles were sold into, and high five-figure readings are the norm rather than the exception.

What you are buying

The Sambar's layout does the heavy lifting here regardless of how the front axle is specified: a 658cc four-cylinder mounted behind the rear wheels, a completely flat bed floor with no drivetrain running beneath it, and a weight distribution that no other kei truck shares. Subaru kept that arrangement for decades after everybody else had abandoned it.

Mid-band pricing on a kei truck generally reflects a sound, unremarkable specification — the four-wheel-drive, five-speed, flat-bed combination that the majority of buyers are looking for in the first place.
