Extra Cab Utes

Best Utes according to our experts

01.
Ford Ranger
From
$42,487
7.4/10
From
$42,487
The realm of high‑end, high‑performance utes is an increasingly competitive slice of the new vehicle market. The latest Ford Ranger Raptor to enter the arena has a V6 engine, an upgraded suspension set‑up and drive modes aimed at further bolstering its growing reputation as a built‑for‑purpose adventure machine.But does the Raptor have serious potential as a touring 4WD?
02.
Mitsubishi Triton
From
$32,990
8.6/10
From
$32,990
The Mitsubishi Triton has been relaunched and features a bunch of upgrades and design changes. How does the flagship GSR variant fair over a week of family‑testing?
03.
Nissan Navara
From
$42,990
8.0/10
From
$42,990
While the highly‑specified 4WD dual cab ute models get all the focus its the no‑fuss entry‑level models that get the work done. And Nissan's Navara SL is a classic example. Not the highest profile option in the market and getting a bit long in the tooth but it still has a lot to offer tradies needing a tough truck.
04.
Toyota HiLux
From
$32,350
7.6/10
From
$32,350
The current generation Toyota HiLux ute is perilously close to its tenth birthday and Toyota has moved to freshen up its appeal with a mild hybrid version of the SR5 grade. Does it make a difference and is it enough to change you mind about that Ford Ranger you've had your eye on?
05.
Mazda BT-50
From
$36,448
7.9/10
From
$36,448
The most expensive Mazda ute comes with plenty of kit, but its price is creeping close to the likes of Ford's venerable Ranger Raptor without the muscular might to match. So, does the BT‑50 Thunder Pro bring value in other ways?
