Under the skin of a 2000 Sambar EFI 4WD ABS 2Hi-4Hi

The engine is recorded as the EN07V — fuel-injected 660cc 4-cylinder. Subaru was the last maker to keep a four-cylinder in the kei class, and the EN07 is that engine — four small cylinders instead of three larger ones, which is why a Sambar is so much less busy than a three-cylinder rival. This Sambar EFI 4WD ABS 2Hi-4Hi is fitted with a manual gearbox. The trim designation records an extra-low crawler gear.

What we have on record for this Sambar EFI 4WD ABS 2Hi-4Hi

Recorded mileage on this 2000 Sambar EFI 4WD ABS 2Hi-4Hi is 43,295. The source recorded no unit alongside that figure, so 43,295 is reproduced exactly as stored rather than converted.

Why the Sambar EFI 4WD ABS 2Hi-4Hi is different

The TT2 designation follows Subaru's own convention: the letters give the body and the number gives the drive. Putting the engine under the bed was a deliberate load-carrying decision: on a kei truck the difference between empty and laden is enormous, and the engine acts as ballast over the driven axle when the bed is empty. Japan's Akabou courier cooperative ran Sambars almost exclusively for three decades, on a factory type-approved version with its own valves, pistons, rods and crankshaft built to cover 200,000 kilometres of courier work — a fair indication of what the platform tolerates.

Practicalities of this Sambar EFI 4WD ABS 2Hi-4Hi
