Car Prices in Kenya 2026: Best Official New-Car Price List

This page lists car prices in Kenya for new vehicles, using only the prices that each brand’s official Kenyan distributor publishes on its own website. Two distributors publish full prices today: Isuzu East Africa, for the D-Max pickup, the mu-X SUV and its trucks and bus chassis, and Changan Kenya, for its SUVs, vans and mini-trucks. That gives 33 models from KSh 1.89 million to KSh 14.9 million.

Checked on 10 November 2026 against Isuzu East Africa’s price list and Changan Kenya’s website. Prices are in Kenya shillings as published. Ask the dealer for a written quotation before you pay.

Cheapest new vehicles in the list

The cheapest new vehicles with a published price are Changan’s Star 5 light commercials. The Star 5 single-cab mini-truck starts at KSh 1.89 million, the cargo minivan at KSh 1.99 million, and the passenger minivan, the double cab and the single cab with a body all start at KSh 2.09 million.

For passenger SUVs, Changan’s CS75 Pro starts at KSh 3.99 million, the UNI-S at KSh 4.49 million and the Hunter 4WD at KSh 4.8 million. The Hunter K50 REEV 4WD, which Changan lists under its hybrid models, starts at KSh 7.9 million.

Isuzu’s cheapest pickup is the D-Max single cab 4×2 manual at KSh 3.89 million. The 4×4 single cab costs KSh 4.39 million with a manual gearbox and KSh 4.6 million as an automatic. The D-Max double cab 4×4 costs KSh 6.949 million manual and KSh 7.2 million automatic, and the 3.0-litre TFS40 double cab costs KSh 8.996 million. The mu-X SUV costs KSh 8.99 million in LS-U trim and KSh 9.99 million in LS-T trim. Our Isuzu D-Max price guide shows monthly repayments for each version.

Truck and bus chassis prices

Isuzu is the only distributor we found that publishes full truck and bus prices. Its light NLR77E truck costs KSh 3.612 million, the NMR85H KSh 4.2 million and the NQR81K KSh 4.775 million. Medium trucks such as the FRR90N (KSh 5.95 million) and the FVR90L (KSh 7.82 million) sit in the middle, and the FTS34L tops the truck list at KSh 11.821 million.

Bus chassis run from KSh 6.105 million for the NMR85 to KSh 14.916 million for the FVR34S. Body building is quoted separately by the body builder. Isuzu lists one more model, the FTS34K, without a price, so we have left it out of the table.

Brands without a public price list

Most franchised dealers in Kenya do not publish prices. We checked the official Kenyan sites of Toyota, BYD, Chery, Mahindra, Suzuki, Kia, Mazda, MG, GWM and Tata and found no price list. For these brands you must ask the dealer for a quotation.

BYD Kenya (CFAO Mobility)Model range on byd.com/ke; no price list on the site
Chery KenyaModel range on chery.ke; no price list on the site
Mahindra KenyaDealer list on mahindra.co.ke; no price list on the site

Checked 10 Nov 2026.

We do not copy prices from car-sale classifieds or price aggregator sites, because they are not set by the brand and can be out of date. If a distributor starts publishing prices, we will add its models.

What you pay on top of the list price

A distributor’s list price is the starting point, not always the amount you pay to drive away. Before you sign, ask the dealer to confirm in writing:

  • whether the price includes registration and number plates;
  • the cost of comprehensive insurance for the first year, which our car insurance premium estimator can help you budget;
  • accessories such as a canopy, tow bar or tracker, and whether they are fitted at the factory or by the dealer;
  • the warranty period and the service schedule; and
  • how long the price is valid, since importers can change prices when the shilling moves.

If you are comparing a new car with a used import, our car import duty calculator estimates the taxes on an imported unit, and our used car checklist covers the checks to make before buying second-hand.

Financing a new car

Most new vehicles in Kenya are bought with asset finance from a bank or a microfinance bank. Rates differ widely by lender. On the Kenya Bankers Association’s Total Cost of Credit site, the lowest average asset finance rates in November 2026 were around 14% a year and the highest above 30%.
