Kenya's Motor Vehicle Import Regulations in 2026: A Comprehensive Guide for Importers, Buyers, and Industry Professionals

Importing a vehicle into Kenya remains one of the most popular ways for individuals, businesses, ride-share operators, and fleet managers to acquire reliable, cost-effective cars—especially in a market where new-vehicle prices often exceed KSh 5–10 million for popular SUVs and saloons. In 2026, the process is tightly regulated by three core authorities: the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for customs valuation and taxation, the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) for pre-shipment conformity and age/roadworthiness compliance, and the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) for final registration and road-use approval. The landscape shifted significantly at the start of 2026. Effective January 1, 2026, KEBS enforced a stricter interpretation of the long-standing eight-year age limit under KS 1515:2000 (Code of Practice for Inspection of Road Vehicles) and Legal Notice No. 78 of 2020. Only Right-Hand Drive (RHD) vehicles whose year of first registration is January 1, 2019, or late...

The Scientific Causes of Engine Overheating (Long Technical Breakdown)

 


Overheating occurs when heat production exceeds heat dissipation. Internal combustion engines rely on coolant, fans, sensors, and pump pressure.

1. Low Coolant (Most Common Case)

Coolant absorbs heat from the engine block.

Facts

  • Coolant must be a 50/50 ethylene glycol and water mix

  • Low coolant reduces heat transfer capacity by up to 40%

  • Air pockets cause localized hotspots

2. Thermostat Failure

The thermostat controls coolant flow.

If Stuck Closed:

  • Coolant cannot reach radiator

  • Engine overheats rapidly

If Stuck Open:

  • Engine runs too cold

  • Poor fuel economy

  • Long-term wear increases

3. Radiator Blockage

Radiators get clogged internally (rust, debris) or externally (dirt, leaves).

Measured Impact

  • A 30% blockage increases temperature by 10–15°C

  • Coolant flow restriction causes boiling

4. Water Pump Failure

The water pump circulates coolant.

Signs

  • Coolant leaks from pump seal

  • Grinding noise

  • Overheating at idle

Facts

  • Pumps fail between 150,000–200,000 km

  • Impellers sometimes corrode (Volkswagen/Audi common issue)

5. Cooling Fan Failure

Fans maintain airflow when stationary or slow-moving.

Common Failures

  • Burnt fan motor

  • Faulty relay

  • Blown fuse

  • Bad temperature sensor

6. Head Gasket Failure

A blown head gasket causes coolant to enter cylinders.

Evidence

  • White smoke

  • Bubbles in the radiator

  • Coolant loss with no visible leak

Conclusion

Overheating is nearly always caused by coolant loss, pump failure, radiator blockage, thermostat malfunction, or fan issues.

Toyota Vitz vs. Nissan Note: Which is the Best Budget Hatchback for Nairobi Streets?

  Toyota Vitz vs. Nissan Note: Which is the Best Budget Hatchback for Nairobi Streets? When it comes to navigating the hustle and bustle of Nairobi, a compact hatchback is king. They are easy to park, fuel-efficient, and affordable. Two of the most popular choices you'll see on our roads are the Toyota Vitz and the Nissan Note. But which one is right for you? Let's break them down across the factors that matter most to a Kenyan driver. Round 1: Fuel Efficiency For most Kenyans, fuel consumption is a top priority. Toyota Vitz: The Vitz, especially with its 1.0L or 1.3L engine, is legendary for being a fuel sipper. It's one of the most economical cars you can run for daily city commuting. Nissan Note: The Note, particularly the 1.2L non-supercharged version, is also incredibly fuel-efficient, often rivaling the Vitz. The DIG-S (supercharged) version offers more power but uses slightly more fuel. Winner: It's a tie. Both are champions of fuel economy, and your actual co...

To help you navigate this universal language, we’ve developed this glossary. Think of it as the "Owner’s Manual" for recognizing the extraordinary in the everyday. 1.
