LDV Deliver 9 2021 review GVM test

By Matt Campbell · 24 Oct 2020

The LDV Deliver 9 van is a large vehicle made for hard work. It isn't your average model, with a range of wheelbase and height choices, a cab-chassis model, and two different mini bus examples for sale. We drove the version LDV expects to sell a lot of: the Long Wheel Base Mid Roof model, which is automatic only and costs less than forty grand drive-away for ABN holders. That's less than a HiAce!

The new Chinese-built LDV T60 Trailrider 2 is aimed at attracting those who may not be willing - or able - to spend upwards of $50,000 on a dual-cab ute, but who still want plenty of standard features, comfort and bang for their buck in their work-and-play utility.

LDV T60 2020 review: Mega Tub

By Matt Campbell · 14 Feb 2020

The LDV T60 range has expanded - quite literally - with the new Mega Tub variant. It sits at the top of the range and has an extended wheelbase and longer tub than the regular dual cab model it's based on.

LDV T60 2020 review: Luxe off-road

By Marcus Craft · 17 Dec 2019

The LDV T60 was rather a nice surprise at its Australian launch in 2017. It was a Chinese-built dual-cab ute that actually looked pretty good, seemed well-built, drove nicely, was adequately capable off-road and it was sharply priced and well-equipped. So now, with new Walkinshaw-tweaked suspension, is the LDV T60 the best value-for-money ute in Australia?

LDV D90 2020 review: Executive

By Nedahl Stelio · 17 Dec 2019

It's impressive enough to discover that a whopping seven-seat SUV like this LDV D90 can be had for under $44,000, but when you realise that it's the Executive, top-line model, it really catches your eye. Can it possibly be as good as cars from bigger, better-known brands like Holden and Ford? We did a full family test to find out.

LDV T60 2019 review: Trailrider

By Matt Campbell · 17 May 2019

If you haven't heard of the LDV T60, we'll forgive you. This relative newcomer to the dual cab ute segment is fighting for a spot among some big name rivals. This particular model - the Trailrider - has a distinctly Aussie flavour to it, having had its suspension retuned by local heroes Walkinshaw. Yep, the same people that've been tuning Commodores for years!
