It is a rival for the Hyundai Staria Load, with a starting price of $46,990, before on-road costs. 

The Scudo was last seen in Australia more than 10 years ago. 

It is a rebadged version of the Peugeot Expert, which is already available in Australia from $500 more than the Scudo.

The Scudo has a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine, producing 110kW and 370Nm, which is less powerful than the 2.8-litre engine found in the HiAce (130kW/450Nm).

It is also under-gunned compared to the Staria Load, which has a 2.2-litre engine, with 130kW and 430Nm. 

The Scudo has a payload on 1347kg, which represents a noticeable step up on the van's previous generation, and rivals such as the HiAce.

Inside, the Scudo has a 10.0-inch digital driver display and 10.0-inch central touchscreen, with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality as standard. 

Keyless entry and start is available on the up-spec version of the Scudo, along with wireless phone charging.
