The base vehicle is the commercial three-wheelers, popularly known as Keke Maruwa and Keke NAPEP. But unlike the three (3) 4.00.8 sized tyres affixed to commercial Kekes, this ‘former tricycle’ now rides on 4 tyres designed for cars.

Other modifications done to the vehicle includes two buckets seats installed where the passenger bench seat are normally found in the base vehicle, as well as round headlights like those found on off-roading vehicles like Jeep.

Autojosh guess the powertrain remains the same, so this customized vehicle likely uses a 4 Stroke liquid-cooled engine that produces 8.7 horsepower (6.5KW).

If the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) consider this open-top Keke-based 4-wheeler roadworthy, the driver will be able to reach top speed of 50 – 70Km/h (13.9 – 19.4 m/s).
