The four-cylinder diesel engine has a displacement of 2,776cc. With a gross vehicle weight of 3,110kg and an unladen weight of 1,995kg, a payload of 1,115kg remains. A wheelbase of 3,100mm combined with a width of 1,900mm on four wheels corresponds to the size of a mid-size pickup.
With a gross vehicle weight of 3,110kg, the Bison Savanna stays within EU category N1 and can be driven on a category B licence. A payload of over a tonne at this unladen weight is a solid figure for a pickup of this size used in freight and construction-site transport.
When buying a used Foton pickup from this line, the condition of the load bed and its tie-down points matters most, along with corrosion on the frame, which is put under particular strain by construction-site work and contact with grit or salt. The diesel engine's turbocharger and the availability of spare parts, which can be limited for this brand outside its home markets, are also worth checking. The rear leaf springs and the weatherproofing of the driver's cabin are also worth checking, along with the clutch and gearbox, given the demands of construction-site work on this type of vehicle.
