I'll go with 4x2 diesel mid-sized suvs. Aside from being more practical as a people carrier, it is also easier to drive and park compared to a pickup due to its shorter length.
This is on the assumption that :
- your company allows the employee to cash out if unit price is higher than 1.2M
- you have the capacity or is willing to cash out
- most of the time the suv's third row is more than enough for your cargo needs versus a pick-up's bed
My personal choice is the Isuzu MU-X because of looks, although it might be more practical to choose the Mitsubishi Montero Sport because of big discounts (I am hearing 100K+), ample supply (earlier delivery of unit), and no DI.
