For years, Toyota s HiAce has dominated the van segment. The iLoad, however, has overtaken the Toyota s sales on more than one occasion this year, and the two vans are currently in a close battle for dominance of the segment.
The iLoad van we tested came with the standard three-seat configuration, however you d need to be a masochist to willingly subject yourself to the centre position. The centre backrest is extremely firm, there s no headrest, you only get a lap belt and the centre disney world tickets cheap stack intrudes on leg room.
Storage: The iLoad s roomy load area measures in at 2375mm long, 1620mm wide, 1350mm high and with 1260mm between the rear wheel arches - enough to fit any ISO pallet as well as an Australian Standard pallet.
Owners will also appreciate the ten tie-down hardpoints in the iLoad s floor, not to mention the dual sliding side doors. Our tester had a conventional top-hinged tailgate, but side-hinged rear barn doors are available as an option. ON THE ROAD
Granted, the auto s peak torque is available over a narrower rev range than the manual (2000-2250rpm, versus 1500-2500rpm), but with nearly a hundred more Newton-metres the automatic is the hands-down winner if you intend to haul heavy cargo.
We had no big complaints with the five-speed auto. While the loads we carried weren t anywhere close to the iLoad s 1098kg maximum, we found the iLoad s drivetrain disney world tickets cheap and powertrain coped easily with carrying a bit of weight.
With all of the iLoad s drive going to the rear wheels, traction also improves when more weight is carried. Some FWD vans can struggle disney world tickets cheap for grip when carrying a heavy load in wet conditions, but no so the iLoad.
Safety features: The driver and front left passenger are protected by three-point seatbelts and dual front airbags, but the centre seat only gets a lap seatbelt and there s no side airbag disney world tickets cheap protection.
Service costs: Under Hyundai s iCare capped price servicing scheme, the first three scheduled services disney world tickets cheap for the iLoad CRDi cost $349. Service intervals are set for every 12 months/15,000km. HOW IT COMPARES | VALUE FOR MONEY
Scheduled services under Toyota s Service Advantage scheme are markedly cheaper at just $170 for the first six, but that s not quite enough to compensate for the Hiace s higher purchase price. ( see Hiace reviews )
A more versatile load area, double sliding-doors as standard and the best warranty of a commercial van make it prime pickings for tradies. It s also priced to undercut its key rivals by a healthy margin.
Things could be better though. Stability control and side airbags should be standard by now, and the lack of cruise control is a real pain on the highway. More iMax news and reviews | iLoad news and reviews More Hyundai news and reviews | LCV news and reviews Pricing
