The SUV scene in the UAE welcomes a fierce new competitor with the arrival of the all new 212 T01. This model blends military grade toughness with modern technology, developed by 212 Motors in partnership with Legend Motors. With over six decades of expertise in building rugged vehicles, the 212 T01 is crafted to be the perfect companion for desert explorers, mountain adventurers, and drivers seeking a balance between performance and refined practicality.

Rugged Design and Adventure Ready Features


The 212 T01 commands attention with its bold and unmistakable presence. Its boxy silhouette, squared lines, and upright stance pay tribute to the world’s most iconic off road legends, while modern LED headlights and a wide grille give it a contemporary edge. It’s a vehicle that looks ready for any terrain the moment you see it.

Exterior Highlights:

  • Available in White, Black, Grey, and Green

  • Dimensions: 4705 mm length, 1895 mm width, 1936 mm height

  • Approach and departure angles of 36° and 40° respectively

  • Towing capacity up to 2.5 tonnes

  • Optional off road package with AT tires, winch, and nitrogen shocks


This design makes the 212 T01 a true rival in the world of serious 4x4s, ready to conquer desert dunes and rocky trails with confidence, all while maintaining a tough and commanding appearance from every angle.

Modern Cabin Blending Comfort and Technology


Inside the cabin, the 212 T01 offers a well balanced combination of rugged practicality and advanced comfort. Premium leather seats, driver massage and heating functions, and fully electric seat adjustments enhance the overall driving experience during long adventures.

The interior design of the T01 proves that adventure and comfort can coexist, giving the driver complete control whether crossing desert dunes or navigating city streets.

Power and Mechanical Performance


Under the hood, the 212 T01 draws its strength from a 2.0 liter turbocharged petrol engine that delivers 248 hp and 410 Nm of torque. Power is managed through an 8 speed automatic transmission paired with a part time four wheel drive system, ensuring maximum traction and stability across all terrains.

Mechanical Specifications:

  • Fuel consumption: 10.9 L per 100 km
