The Landtrek is now available in two models, including the brand-new Landtrek Special Edition (SE), with prices starting at RM123,000. This makes the completely imported (CBU) model is marginally less expensive than the French pickup truck by over RM4,000.

The standard features of the Landtrek, built for Malaysia, include a 4.2-inch digital instrument cluster, powered front seats, and a 10-inch touchscreen infotainment head unit with support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and rear air conditioning vents are also included.
