The Safari ICE is a rugged 4x4 pickup-based tourist train built for safari parks, wildlife destinations, resorts, and adventure-driven tourism. Combining commercial passenger capacity with off-road capability, it delivers durability, traction, and operational flexibility in demanding environments.
The Deltrain Safari ICE is designed for structured commercial passenger operations with a rugged pickup-based configuration.
Powered by a 292 hp Euro 6E diesel engine and permanent four-wheel drive (4×4), the platform delivers strong torque, stable traction, and confident handling across varied road surfaces.
Its reinforced chassis and automatic transmission system ensure smooth operation under passenger load, while the elevated stance and pickup architecture provide a bold, modern visual identity.
Overall, the Safari ICE combines proven combustion reliability with a distinctive off-road-inspired design for operators who want performance with character.
