Snapshot

  • 2022 LDV T60 Max builds on current T60
  • New engine outperforms HiLux and Ranger
  • Priced from $33,990 drive-away for ABN holders

The 2022 LDV T60 Max has been unveiled, with the ute gaining a new look, better technology, and a more powerful engine.

The T60 Max is essentially a facelifted version of the T60 currently on sale, heavily revised by LDV as part of its mid-life update – but both utes will be available for sale for the time being.

Priced from $33,990 drive-away for ABN holders, the Max gets a 2.0-litre twin-turbo four-cylinder diesel engine putting out 160kW and 500Nm – outperforming the Toyota HiLux and Ford Ranger on power, and matching them on torque.

Opening the range is the T60 Max Pro with a six-speed manual transmission, followed by the Pro with an eight-speed ZF automatic, Luxe manual, and the range-topping Luxe auto at $40,490 drive-away for ABN holders.

The driver can manually select two-wheel drive, high-range four-wheel drive, or low-range four-wheel drive, with an on-demand rear differential lock for increased traction off-road on the Luxe model. Hill descent control is standard.

LDV says the Pro gets heavy-duty suspension, while the Luxe gets comfort suspension – both which have been tuned for Australian conditions by Walkinshaw.

Occupants get a new 10.25-inch centrally-mounted infotainment touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capability, along with a redesigned dashboard layout.

Engine, drivetrain, and fuel economy

While the T60 is offered with either a 110kW/360Nm 2.8-litre or 120kW/375Nm 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engines, this new T60 Max gets a healthy bump to 160kW (at 4000rpm) and 5000Nm (from 1500rpm) from its twin-turbo 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine.

Both the Pro and Luxe variants can be optioned with either a six-speed manual or a ZF-sourced eight-speed automatic transmission, with part-time four-wheel drive and low-range.

Fuel consumption is listed as 9.2L/100km for the manual, and 9.3L/100km for the automatic, while braked towing is rated up to 3.0 tonnes.

Warranty and servicing
