If you just want to save a buck, the Great Wall Steed could appeal to you. It is feature packed, offering a lot of food for thought if you just need a work truck at a low price. But does the poor man always pay twice? Let's find out.

There are options upon options if you want a dual cab ute. But what if you're after a brand new pick-up truck with a strong work ethic and an even stronger value for money equation? We've put the Mitsubishi Triton GLX+ up against the SsangYong Musso Ultimate to see where you should be spending your money.

Should you consider the Jeep Gladiator a rival to a Ford Ranger? Not really. What about a Ram 1500? Kind of. It's actually most likely going to be cross-shopped against the Wrangler four-door, because it looks like a Wrangler ute, after all. But having driven it at its international launch in the US this week, we can tell you the Gladiator is a lot more than just a Wrangler with a tray.

The next-generation version of the Toyota HiLux will be built on a new global ute platform, according to a report from Automotive News.

Jeep has confirmed it will offer a fully electric model at some point, and that when that happens, it will still be a hardcore off-roader.

A V8-powered version of the Jeep Wrangler and Jeep Gladiator hasn't been entirely ruled out - but the brand will need to do quite a bit of work if it wants to make this dream a reality.

The Jeep Gladiator dual cab may be the brand’s most anticipated model in decades, but the company is also mulling a single cab version.

Jeep has revealed six new pick-up truck concepts ahead of the Moab Easter Jeep Safari, most of which are based on the all-new Gladiator dual cab ute.

There are many ways to meet the demands of buyers, but paying a lot of money for a compact car isn't necessarily the best way about it. That isn't stopping luxury car brands from producing new, smaller SUVs that still have plenty of plushness, not to mention price tags that can be double that of equivalent mainstream models. These three models are some of the most intriguing examples of the breed.

A facelifted version of the SsangYong Tivoli will debut in Korea within months, with the 2020 model set to introduce 'major changes' compared with the current version.CarsGuide has learned that 80 per cent of the Tivoli will be new as part of the mid-life update, which comes about four-and-a-half years after the debut of the small SUV. It's set to be a lot more significant than simple nip and tuck.That said, the update will come as part of a long life-cycle for the Tivoli small SUV - but the current version is Korea's best-selling model in that segment, outselling the Hyundai Kona and Kia Niro. The Tivoli only launched in Australia late in 2018, and it hasn't had any form of serious impact on the sales charts locally, where the Kona easily betters it, along with the Mitsubishi ASX and Subaru XV.But the facelifted version of the Tivoli is set to introduce class-first features - many of which are borrowed from the larger, all-new Korando - including a 10.25-inch digital dashboard display, a 9.2-inch media system, as well as the potential inclusion of the Infinity mood lighting system. New trims and materials are set to be used too. According to Kisup Yun, product manager for SsangYong, the exterior changes for the 2020 Tivoli will also be extensive.Mr Yun told CarsGuide the renewed Tivoli will carry over only the doors, window glass and roof panels - the entire front of the car including the guards, headlights, bumper and bonnet will change. The rear will is also set to see big changes, including new tail-lights and a changed back-end design.It isn't only cosmetic changes for the Korean brand's smallest model, either - Mr Yun said the new Tivoli will also carry the same engine line-up as the all-new Korando.For Australia that means a new 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine producing 120kW of power and 280Nm of torque with a six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive, with the flagship model likely to be offered with a 1.6-litre turbo diesel four-cylinder producing 100kW and 324Nm, also with an automatic transmission but likely offered exclusively with all-wheel drive.  The updated version of the Tivoli is set to arrive on sale in Australia around August 2019.
