Fuel Efficiency & Performance Benefits of the RELY R8

The Rely R8 is a mid-size, one-ton pickup built for commercial operations ranging from construction and utility services to logistics and field support.

With petrol and diesel powertrains, multiple drivetrain options, and advanced terrain management systems, it delivers the right balance of efficiency and performance across diverse working conditions.

Spend More Time Working and Less Time Refuelling

For businesses that spend much of the day on the road, frequent refuelling can slow down productivity.

The Rely R8 helps reduce these interruptions with an efficient fuel system and an 80-litre fuel tank, extending the distance between stops. The 2.4L petrol engine is tuned for fuel efficiency, making it ideal for businesses that travel between sites throughout the day.

Fewer breaks for fuel mean more time to focus on the work that matters.

Performance When the Job Demands More

When the workload increases, you need a pickup that can keep up.

The Rely R8's 2.3L turbo diesel engine delivers 161 HP and up to 420 Nm of torque, providing the capability needed for heavy loads and demanding applications. High torque helps maintain performance under load and supports traction on rough or uneven surfaces.

Its strong gradeability further helps the R8 operate effectively across challenging environments.

Configurations for Different Business Requirements

Different businesses have different operating requirements. The Rely R8 is therefore available with a range of powertrain, transmission, and drivetrain options to suit different workloads and operating conditions.

Maintaining Productivity Across Challenging Terrain

Uneven surfaces, steep inclines, and rough terrain can place additional demands on a pickup.

The Rely R8’s Terrain Management System adjusts throttle response, traction control, and power delivery to suit the surface. Its differential lock helps maintain traction when grip is limited, while Crawl Control supports steady progress at low speeds over uneven ground.

In addition, its high ground clearance, strong approach and departure angles, and long wheelbase further enhance stability and capability in challenging conditions.

Together, these features help businesses stay productive wherever the job takes them.

Built for Everyday Commercial Operations

Commercial vehicles are expected to do more than move people and cargo. They need to support productivity throughout the day.

The Rely R8 combines fuel-efficient operation, strong performance, and terrain-ready capability in a package designed for a wide range of commercial applications.

From daily site visits to demanding work environments, it is built to help businesses keep moving.
