4X4 Utes

Best Utes according to our experts

01.
Ford Ranger
From
$39,990
7.6/10
From
$39,990
The long‑awaited electrified Ford Ranger has arrived. The Blue Oval's plug‑in joins a very short list of partly battery‑powered rival utes, but Ford Australia says the Ranger hasn't been compromised for the sake of its new EV ability. We're here to find out if that's true.
02.
Isuzu D-Max
From
$29,490
7.9/10
From
$29,490
The D‑Max Blade, a collaboration between Isuzu and the Walkinshaw Automotive Group, was developed locally as a hardcore four‑wheel drive. It has 3mm steel bash plates, Aussie‑tuned and lifted suspension, light truck construction all‑terrain tyres and Blade‑specific design enhancements. But, without extra power and torque, is the Blade actually worth $15,000 more than the LS‑U+ on which it's based?
03.
Mazda BT-50
From
$34,888
8.6/10
From
$34,888
The Mazda BT‑50 boasts good looks and solid Isuzu engineering, so how does it measure up as a tradie's tool‑of‑trade in cab‑chassis form?
04.
Mitsubishi Triton
From
$29,980
8.1/10
From
$29,980
The Mitsubishi Triton cab‑chassis in base‑grade GLX trim is clearly aimed at buyers wanting a turbo‑diesel ute that's primarily designed for hard work, but does it tick all the boxes for tradies?
05.
Toyota HiLux
From
$30,990
7.6/10
From
$30,990
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?
