KGM launches new Musso Saracen Platinum pick-up truck

KGM Motors UK has unveiled a limited-edition version of the Musso pick-up truck.

The KGM Musso Saracen Platinum commemorates its 70th anniversary, and only 70 units of this pimped-out pick-up will be available in the UK market.  

Designed to cater to pick-up enthusiasts, the Platinum model is based on the standard Musso Saracen, and keeps its one-tonne payload and 3.5-tonne towing capacity. However, it adds a touch of luxury and exclusivity with a range of premium features and a distinctive design.

The Platinum edition Musso, not to be confused with the Ford Ranger Platinum, gets a striking new look with matt black sports bars, extended wheel arches, and matt black sidesteps.

On the inside, there's Nappa leather seats, a heated steering wheel, and a 12.3-inch smart audio screen. 

Under the bonnet power comes from the standard 2.2-litre diesel engine which delivers 200hp and 441Nm of torque.

Safety features include six airbags and advanced driver assistance systems including Brake Assist and Blind Spot Detection.  

It comes in either Marble Gray or Grand White colours and the special edition also gets Saracen Platinum decals, a numbered interior badge, and a commemorative keyring indicating which of the 70 units is yours.

Musso Platinum’s accessories include:

• Electric roll-top with remote control
  The weatherproof shutter opens quickly with the use of a convenient key fob and can be stopped and locked into any staged positions
• Matt black sports styling bars
  Attractive sports bars to add an air of toughness. Made from stainless steel, they are durable and resistant to corrosion and rust, with an added powder coating for further durability. 
• Extended wheel arches 
  The Musso Saracen on steroids! The Saracen Platinum has an enhanced look with wheel arch extenders that give your award-winning pick up a more aggressive stance.
• Matt black sidesteps
  Made from premium quality materials and designed for practicality, whilst adding an extra touch of style to your special edition. 
• Musso skid plate
  For preventing damage to the underside of your vehicle, the plate has a black finish with Musso logo branding. 

The KGM Musso Saracen Platinum is priced at £33,995 (ex VAT) and comes with a 5-year/100,000-mile warranty.
