Best Commercial Vehicles by Price, Size & Category in Aus

Commercial vehicles are designed for professional use as load-carriers and tow vehicles. These can include utes, vans and light trucks. Cargo space, payload and running costs are more important considerations over comfort and design, but safety is also very important as most commercials are also the driver's workplace.

Toyota HiLux 2024 review: GR Sport - GVM test
8/10
If Oscar Wilde was correct in claiming that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, then Ford should be blushing.Its audacious decision to create the Ranger Raptor, an extreme performance version of the local hero, with unique body, chassis, suspension and engine enhancements inspired by Mexico's bruising Baja off-road race, has triggered numerous imitators.One of those is Ford's nemesis Toyota with a unique GR Sport version of its venerable 4x4 HiLux dual cab ute, based on the existing 'wide-track' Rogue and (according to Toyota) inspired by the company's Dakar Rally-winning GR (Gazoo Racing) HiLux off-road racer. It's the most powerful diesel HiLux to date.Although not as extreme as the Raptor, Toyota's typical pragmatic approach has resulted in an eye-catching and more heavy-duty off-road-focused version of its top-selling ute, that offers unique suspension, engine and body enhancements while ensuring that the HiLux's fundamental load-carrying and towing abilities are not compromised.So, with our tradie hard-hat on, we recently put a HiLux GR Sport to work with a big payload to see if the latest Hilux flagship has maintained its workhorse practicality.
Lexus LM500h Ultra Luxury 2024 review: snapshot
7.9/10
The Lexus LM is a rival for premium people movers like the Mercedes-Benz EQV, and there’s a good chance many owners will be driven around in this vehicle rather than getting behind the wheel themselves. Although if they do, they’ll be rewarded with a plush, cosseting drive experience.Sitting above the LM350h is the flagship LM500h which is about $220,000. Rather than being a seven-seater like its sibling, the 500h is strictly a four-seater.Behind the front compartment are two big captain’s chairs that recline flat if required. Standard gear includes a digital rearview mirror, and a 14.0-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a head up display, seven USB ports, a smartphone charger and a rear 14.0-inch multimedia display.The 500h adds niceties like a separation partition with elevating and dimmable glass, that doubles as a 48.0-inch widescreen display to watch films and TV, or take conference calls with. The 500h combines a 2.4-litre turbocharged petrol engine and a hybrid setup, making for power and torque of 202kW and 460Nm respectively. It has all-wheel drive and is paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.The extensive safety suite includes intersection assist, and a pre-collision system with vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist and daytime motorcyclist detection, and a lot more.
Lexus LM350h Sports Luxury 2024 review: snapshot
7.9/10
The Lexus LM is a people mover designed with high-end buyers in mind. A lot of people will be driven around in this vehicle rather than getting behind the wheel.There are LM two model grades available, and the range opens with the LM350h from a tick over $160,000. That’s for the front-wheel drive version, while the all-wheel drive is $5000 dearer.The three-row, seven-seat 350h has two captains chairs in the second row and three in the third row. The luxury vibe of the LM is most evident in that second row, with the captain’s chairs offering six-way power adjustability, heading and ventilation, an ottoman, a pull-out table, a massage function, hands-free controller and more.Tech wise there is a digital rearview mirror, and a 14.0-inch touchscreen, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, a head up display, seven USB ports, a smartphone charger and a rear 14.0-inch multimedia display.The LM350h comes with a 2.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine and a parallel hybrid system, offering up a total system output of 140kW and 239Nm. It is paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).The extensive safety suite includes intersection assist, and a pre-collision system with vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist and daytime motorcyclist detection, and a lot more.
