In Australia, a lot of people, especially in rural areas, just want a basic ute that is reliable and easy to maintain. All these utes are 40k+. That's a lot of money. I wish Toyota reproduced the ln106 hilux but with coil springs and a basic 4 cylinder petrol.
So is everyone still ignoring the reliability issues of the Ford's 10 speed gearbox? I was warned by a reputable diff and gearbox specialist to stay away from the current Ford.
Everything Ford makes is engineered to fail but Ford have realised something, offer people what they want and they'll buy it regardless of quality, reliability and after sales reputation.
Seems like they're adopting the same philosophy as Land Rover which sells beatufill and well equiped cars that are known for reliability issies (no hate towards LR, btw).
@@coast2coast950 lol wow i forgot about this comment. yes I got one.

Im pretty sure at the start they said only 3.5t towing was going to be in the running for ute of the year as well as a few other conditions, triton is only 3.1t towing
@@robfowler3824 just looked it up and does seem so, however, I find it hard to believe the navara can tow more than the triton with the smaller engine (although extra gear). I’m sure the triton can handle the same stress (if not more) than the navara.
Shame you can’t compare the same cars after 60,000km. All driven under the same conditions & cross evaluate how they were to own. Real life service costs. Or the amount of warranty jobs & additional repairs needed on each model. Because I mean we all love a car new, but most people don’t own a car for 1 year. Plus some of these rankings may change once dependability is added to the table.
the dmax will still be on top in my opinion the 4j motors are probably the best on the market that you can buy currently. I have a 79 series but I really cant argue with the 4j motor as I've had them for work and they last 100s of 1000s of ks

I'm from Swaziland now Eswatini next to South Africa and I can safely say regardless of that price, that Hilux we bought in share alarming rate followed by the Ranger
and how does this make a fair comparision when isuzu, Mazda and Navara have had updates and the Ranger is now 14 years old. Lets see how this changes at the end of 2022. Lets go Ranger BITURBO and V6
Good grief, cup holders and a takeaway hook… your video tells us that the Ranger is a better drive on road and Hilux is better off road, but then you jump to babbling about dmax/mazda having advanced safety features and thats why you rank them in first place- but do you compare the safety features on your winner or on the others? You do not, you yammer on about obvious cabin features that all these utes now have cup holders and shopping bag hook and adequate rear legroom, then babble on about no volume nob on the touch screen (couldn’t you find volume control on the steering wheel?) and on and on about cell phone connectivity… This is the least informative comparison i have ever watched. As for ACTUAL discussion of safety features you claim to have influenced your ranking, you eventually mention AEB and rear cross traffic alert on the Mazda/Isuzu (but NO comparison with any competitors) and you are silent on the REALLY important issue of what spec level you have to pay for to get advanced safety features in the different brands - and this is a really big issue. As are comfort features that matter if it is a family car or used for long distance touring like elec/power seat with saved positions, adaptive cruise and lane keeper assist. Did you know you cannot get an electric driver seat in Ford unless you fork out for the Wildtrak? You don’t mention it’s only the top spec in the Mazda and Isuzu that gets this because that’s what you are driving, so you can’t be arsed to mention none of the lower models get this. How can you gabble on about these being family friendly with only manual adjustable seat? How does that work for more than one driver? I’ve just done my own comparative review of features in early 2022 and ended up with Hilux SR5 which has all the safety features of top spec isuzu/mazda (except for rear cross traffic alert and blind spot alert on side mirrors) plus an 8 way power seat (with height adjustment). For me these two specific safety features were less important than a power driver seat with height adjust, adaptive cruise, heated side mirrors (we get big frosts in winter) and heater in both front seats. If you guys want to rank based on safety features, then how about you provide comparison of that rather than yammer on about bloody cup holders.
that's normal just like buying new phones after 6 months another new phones will come out and your new 6 months old phone automatically labeled as "old"... Navara really set the standard high especially the quad led bulbs and impressive design in ALL variants... upcoming Ranger 2022 just made it better with new interior... Navara looks old right away after a year because you can see it every time in the roads a testament that a lot of people buying it... I also got one scheduled for release tomorrow or Saturday but it seems there's another delays because they have shortage of supply (there are so many releases last December so Nissan assumed the sales will fall by January and February but the sales went high again so the supply of Navara is very low)... I'm growing impatient with mine thinking I might betrayed my agent and cancel mine so that I can wait a little longer for ranger 2022
@@darthfear7280 Looking at how long you've waited, you can either go for the new Ranger or just hang in there and get the Navara.... Our experiences with vehicles are different... I have driven both older model Ranger and Navara and while I absolutely loved both, I think I found the Ranger more reliable.... I think both will be great buys...
Nope. I was waiting for the new ranger, but they’ve just released the model specs for Australia and same issue - you have to buy a Wildtrack to get an electric adjust driver seat. Manual seat with height adjust is fine if there is only ever one driver, but if you drive long distance or share the driving it is just stupid. Cheap and counter productive.
And again Drive, no consideration to service and parts availability. I once owned a 2014 BT50 when I could get parts from Ford and Mazda it was just OK in remote Australia. Now Mazda has aligned with Isuzu there is SFA service and parts in remote OZ. This is main reason I went for a 2021 Hilux and I can get parts from Thargominda to Tom Price to Nhulunbuy. Scores MUST be given for this so Manufacturers wake up and start spending big money on Dealer Networks if they expect owners to get out there and do what these utes were designed for. It IS a huge copout by Manufacturers to make virtually no service/spares available for likely 80%+ of OZ. But then again Drive would NEVER criticise Manufacturers would you.......
Agreed Mate, My 2013 BT50 has been super , just clocked over 300k this week. Has been super reliable and runs a treat still . Now that they have morphed into Isuzu land , I am out .

Anyone that questions why only these 4 should clearly be awake to media paid product advertising by now. This should highlight the validity of all media articles to do with vehicles these days it’s nothing more than who pays gets the best highlights. The toyota should not even get a mention. Why please show me anything that toyota has done to advance any of its vehicles in any category. Given the money made in sales. Hilux worst towing or GVM capacity for a long time years. No new safety technology, central airbags, no passenger safety cell advancements. No new driver technology across the range wireless apple or android, advanced brake systems. The worst power outputs in real life tests in accelerating, fuel burn. As for resale go to any fleet auction and see how much they sell for. Yet the media plug this garbage.
So I just watched the video of best SUV for 2022 from the same reviewers and scrolled down to the comment section of that video to find all the comments saying that it was a paid marketing scheme by JLR. So I guess this is a paid marketing scheme for Isuzu? Just asking for a friend

Lol, something I've noticed about almost ALL UTE youtube videos : there's no consistency in the grading of the vehicles. As mentioned in other comments below, the reviewers will name a feature of the losing vehicles, but say nothing of the winning vehicles same features. Nowadays I just watch these videos to see if any thing's changed. Sadly, it hasn't. Always favoritism towards a specific vehicle.
Theres a reason the Hilux is the No. 1 selling vehicle in Australia 5 years running, the fact its scored so low in comparison to the competition is laughable.. here's a topic you didn't cover.. resale... see how the others compare in depreciation. The honest answer we all know is the Hilux is still No. 1 by a long way and it's almost at the end of it's 10 year model cycle.
Australia is sinking in climate change 3rd flood in 2022 , so when comes the first affordable fully electrical Pick-up, please ? And which company you think will build it ? China is allready building the Dongfeng Rich 6 EV , which is a Navara. Thhe west is behind one more time
Mazdas after sales service is horrid. My aircon died after 3 years. No parts are available in australia. Have to wait for 2 months to get them from japan Mazdas safety features make the driving painful. Over the top and cant turn them off permanetly. Have to do it every time you turn it on. Cruise control allows for people to pull infront of you which the car then slams its brakes on.
You'd have to be clinically insane to buy any current ute when the next generation is just around the corner which will be a colossal leap forward in every category.
Unfortunately all of the new dual cab utes are shit! and I really cannot think of a better word to summarise them For a dual cab ute 2 be Good it needs the following An option for coil springs A curb weight of less than 2 tonnes A centre differential A rear diff locker A powertrain that builds good power fromP low RPM all the way to high RPM and allow0s the vehicle to have a top speed of over 200 kph Disc brakes in the rear A low range transfer case The most basic interior that is legal under today's standards Hydraulic power steering A manual handbrake NOT ELECTRIC! Wheel studs not bolts The absolute minimum of safety equipment required to gain compliance Manual transmission option
In Europe the izusu d-max has a 1,9 liter engine instead of the 3,0 liter… Don’t think is will last as long or be as powerfull. And ofcourse Izusu don’t think that either or they would probably have used the same 1,9 down under. And with the loss of the very good 3,2 5 cylinder in the ford, is has to be the hilux!
The 1.9 is the newest developed engine. It's more reliable and more fuel efficient than previous engines. Read up some before you spew more false information.
This review is not action based AT ALL!! On paper yeah the Lux might be on top but in EVERY test I’ve seen and every multiple car review it’s come mid pack. And there is NO WAY the new Nav beats the dmax, again on paper, but not when you actually take them 4x4 tracks.
Well the UK version of the Isuzu D-Max is a bag of shyte, engine and gearbox have no relationship with each other, it's either flat as a turd or revving it's nuts off, and the 1.9 engine sounds like a bag of nails. The autonomous driving modes are cheap and crude, the emergency braking skids to a halt when a leaf blows in front of the vehicle, and the lane assist is just plain dangerous. The infotainment system is the most unintelligent I have ever used, can't change radio station while driving, can't open mobile phone address book while driving, can't cope with more than one telephone number when making voice activated call, and the list goes on. My old 2015 Ford Ranger 2.2 auto double cab was a much better vehicle to drive and live with every day basis.

Unfortunately all of the new dual cab utes are shit! and I really cannot think of a better word to summarise them
For a dual cab ute 2 be Good it needs the following
An option for coil springs
A curb weight of less than 2 tonnes
A centre differential
A rear diff locker
A powertrain that builds good power fromP low RPM all the way to high RPM and allow0s the vehicle to have a top speed of over 200 kph
Disc brakes in the rear
A low range transfer case
The most basic interior that is legal under today's standards
Hydraulic power steering
A manual handbrake NOT ELECTRIC!
Wheel studs not bolts
The absolute minimum of safety equipment required to gain compliance
Manual transmission option
I agree over priced shit boxes.
Do you mean a lockable centre differential ?
A lockable centre differential would be good whether that be a torsion or viscous or some other type probably not an electromagnetic clutch
Pretty sure the v6 Amarok has all that
A lockable centre diff is only necessary with certain types of transfer cases.

Why you guys the only guys who havent noticed the DMAX n BT50's traction control offroad is BAD
mitsubishi triton has a lot of parts 😂😂😂😂 well his not part of it

This review is not action based AT ALL!! On paper yeah the Lux might be on top but in EVERY test I’ve seen and every multiple car review it’s come mid pack. And there is NO WAY the new Nav beats the dmax, again on paper, but not when you actually take them 4x4 tracks.
WTF, this is supposed to be a comparison for best ute. What a joke you guys can't be serious, worst review on the internet.🤯
"Real Men drive three pedals". Can you? I've seen many of your videos promoting that auto pedals! It's Absolutely Boring!
Well the UK version of the Isuzu D-Max is a bag of shyte, engine and gearbox have no relationship with each other, it's either flat as a turd or revving it's nuts off, and the 1.9 engine sounds like a bag of nails. The autonomous driving modes are cheap and crude, the emergency braking skids to a halt when a leaf blows in front of the vehicle, and the lane assist is just plain dangerous. The infotainment system is the most unintelligent I have ever used, can't change radio station while driving, can't open mobile phone address book while driving, can't cope with more than one telephone number when making voice activated call, and the list goes on. My old 2015 Ford Ranger 2.2 auto double cab was a much better vehicle to drive and live with every day basis.
The thing about the dmax and bt50 is that it seem like they are for old mans. Hilux seem more manly and have better for mods option.
No Triton in it and WTF with the BT50? The BT50 is a mongrel thing to drive, always hunting gears and rough as guts!
shame to Toyota Hilux overrated overprice best seller but any comparison drag race,moose test fail,looser last position always very poor driving performance experience 😂😂
Never buy a new release.

Triton driver
Worst Ute review ever. How can you call this informative without a triton or an amorok. Totally incomplete
Just tell the truth about these overpriced shit boxes.
Where is the Amarok?
