Prices of Tokunbo Cars in Tanzania

Many Tanzanians who are interested in purchasing a vehicle choose to import, or “tokunbo,” a secondhand automobile from another country. The price of a Tokunbo automobile may be anywhere from 3 million to 80 million Tanzanian shillings, depending on the year, manufacture, and model of the vehicle.

There are several advantages to purchasing a Tokunbo automobile, including lower initial outlay, since they are often less expensive than new models, and more variety. Toyota, Nissan, and Honda are three of the most popular car brands on the market.

It’s crucial to think about the car’s intended use before purchasing a Tokunbo. Different vehicles are better suited for different types of driving; some are more comfortable in the city, while others are more capable on longer road trips or rough terrain. To double-check the vehicle’s health, have a certified mechanic look it over before you buy it.

In general, a Tokunbo automobile is a good option for those looking to save money without sacrificing quality. You can rent a vehicle in Tanzania from a variety of manufacturers, so it’s easy to choose something that works for you and gets you where you need to go.

Over the years, Tanzania has developed to be a great market for foreign used vehicles. Tanzanians are generally lovers of cars and they tend to fall in love more with trendy, fashionable, efficient cars, depending on the purpose of the buyer.

Getting brand new versions of these cars are generally over expensive and sometimes stressful. Why stress yourself when you can get a neatly used version of the same car you desire that is still very efficient, has same the same quality, features and at a cheaper price?

A lot of Tanzanians have come to this understanding and have opted for more foreign used cars.
