KGM Celebrates 70 Years with Musso Saracen Platinum Pickup • Professional Pickup

KGM is celebrating its anniversary with the Musso Saracen Platinum, a special-edition pickup exclusive to the UK market. Limited to just 70 vehicles, the high-spec Musso retains its one-tonne payload and 3.5-tonne towing capacity while adding extra equipment and a splash of style.

The Musso Saracen Platinum features an electric roll-top with remote control, allowing quick and secure access via a key fob. Matt black sports styling bars, made from durable stainless steel with a powder coating, add a rugged touch. Extended wheel arches give the vehicle a more aggressive stance, while matt black sidesteps offer both practicality and style. A branded Musso skid plate protects the vehicle’s underside.

There’s also a numbered interior badge and a commemorative keyring indicating which of the 70 units is yours.

“Celebrating our 70th Anniversary with the launch of the Musso Saracen Platinum is a special moment for us at KGM UK,” commented Kevin Griffin, managing director at KGM Motors UK. “This limited-edition variant embodies the very best of our multi-award-winning pickup — practicality, versatility, and style… but with some extra special anniversary treatment. We are thrilled to present the Platinum edition on our platinum anniversary as we continue to push the boundaries for pickups in the UK market.”

The pickup retains the standard Saracen features. It’s powered by a 2.2-litre diesel engine with a six-speed automatic transmission and selectable 4×4 with low ratio. It delivers 202hp and 441Nm of torque and offers a towing capacity of 3,500 kg with a 1,095 kg payload.

The interior includes premium Nappa leather, power-adjustable and ventilated front seats, heated seats front and rear, and a heated leather steering wheel. It also has dual-zone automatic air conditioning, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 12.3-inch infotainment system with TomTom navigation, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a rear-view camera.

Externally, the Musso features 18-inch black alloy wheels, a chrome front grille, black and silver roof rails, black exterior accents, and rear privacy glass.

Dealers can now take orders for the Musso Saracen Platinum. At £33,995 plus VAT, it is just £740 more expensive than the regular Saracen model.
