1999 Subaru Sambar EFI Limited All Wheel Drive, PS, AC, Airbag, Auto · 19,470 mi

This particular kei truck is a 1999 Subaru Sambar EFI Limited All Wheel Drive, PS, AC, Airbag, Auto, recorded as White, and it is here rather than on a boat. Gearbox: automatic. The chassis identifier is TT2-022163.

Background 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 gauge reads 19,470 miles, or about 31,300 km as it was marked from the factory — a low figure by the standards of the Sambar's Japanese working life.

Reading the specification

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.

Above $12,000 a kei truck is being priced on specification rather than transport. A 1999 Subaru Sambar EFI Limited All Wheel Drive, PS, AC, Airbag, Auto in this band is normally carrying hardware or a configuration that the ordinary working trucks do not.
