Best Commercial vehicles according to our experts

01.
Ford Ranger
From
$35,930
8/10
From
$35,930

The Ranger Wildtrak X was a popular option in the last generation version of Ford's popular dual cab ute, so, no surprise it's back for an encore performance as a special edition in the current generation model. Does its extra equipment make it a better workhorse and are the extra dollars required to acquire it justified? Contributing Journalist Mark Oastler provides the answers.


02.
Toyota Land Cruiser
From
$94,301
8/10
From
$94,301

The Sahara used to be top of the table in the LandCruiser line‑up ‑ but that's no longer the case.But that doesn't mean you sacrifice anything substantial when you opt for the Sahara over either of the two top higher‑spec Cruisers.In fact, if you're looking for luxury and refinement, as well as real off‑road ability, this loaded LandCruiser sets the bar very high.


03.
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter
From
$65,839
8/10
From
$65,839

The Mercedes‑Benz Sprinter has been a popular option in the heavy commercial van segment for close to 30 years, during which time a raft of new keenly‑priced and well‑specified competitors have arrived to challenge it. Does this latest, third‑generation version do enough to hold them at bay?


04.
Nissan Navara
From
$32,300
8/10
From
$32,300

Nissan Australia scored a hit with its locally enhanced Navara Warrior PRO‑4X. Now it's offering a more affordable version that keeps all the hardcore stuff and trims away some of the fancy bits around the edges ‑ the Navara SL Warrior.


05.
Volkswagen Amarok
From
$50,990
8/10
From
$50,990

Sure, top‑spec utes are great, but what if you don't have a pile of money so high you'd need a 4WD dual‑cab to climb over it? Volkswagen reckons its Core and Life models are the answer, offering the cheapest way into the Amarok range, and plenty of bang for your bucks. But which is best? We put the Amarok Core and Amarok Life to the test to find out.
