Fuel is straight 2.7 petrol from the ZMZ Pro engine. Official figures list 11.5 l/100 km at steady 90 km/h and 12.5 l/100 km mixed. Tank is a single unit. Expect higher real-world use off-road or with load.
Servicing follows the factory book every 15 000 km or yearly, oil and filter each time. Severe duty (off-road, short trips, trailer) halves the interval. Coolant, fluids and filters follow the longer schedule points.
Safety kit on Classic Ikar centres on ABS with EBD, ISOFIX anchors, ERA-GLONASS call unit, inertia belts and energy-absorbing column. No frontal airbags appear in this grade. Older ARCAP frontal tests on airbag-equipped cars scored around one star.
Live with it as a basic frame SUV: check body mounts and underbody after rough use, keep fluids fresh, and note the mechanical transfer case and leaf springs need normal off-road attention.
