FAQ
Frequently asked questions
The FUSO FI 1217R E5 is priced at KES 5,910,200 (indicative) from AWL Kenya — the same as the E3 variant. Contact +254 709 320 800 or awl.co.ke for a confirmed quote.
The E5 meets Euro 5 emission standards — lower particulate and NOx than Euro 3. It is the preferred choice for Nairobi CBD freight routes and future low-emission zones. Payload and performance are identical between E3 and E5.
If you operate in urban corridors or anticipate tighter emission standards, choose the E5. For rural and long-haul routes where emission zones are not yet a factor, both variants perform identically and cost the same at KES 5,910,200.
