Weighing in at 2 710 kg, the Shark is substantial. The near 50\/50 weight distribution sounds impressive, especially in a brochure, but it\u2019s worth questioning how that balance holds up when the load bin is full or when tackling tough off-road terrain. The interior space is adequate. Headroom ranges from 800 mm to 875 mm up front and 830 mm in the rear, with 630 mm of knee room. Functional, but not game-changing. The 865 mm loading height is practical, and the 3.4 turns lock-to-lock steering suggests decent low-speed manoeuvrability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Performance is where things get interesting. The 0\u2013100 km\/h sprint takes just 5.66 seconds, with the quarter mile done in 13.99 seconds and a kilometre in 26.00 seconds. That\u2019s seriously quick for a bakkie and points to the punch of its hybrid system. The Shark is rated for 2.5 tonnes of braked towing and an 850 kg payload, which puts it behind more utilitarian rivals in both departments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
