  • For some people brands don't really matter - so what do you do when it comes to utes/bakkies? If you're in the market for one and don't want to spend big cash on the big names, would you consider a more affordable option? Paul Maric tests the 2022 LDV T60 Max, which has been facelifted for the 2022 model year.

I decided after test driving to make the silly decision to lay a deposit, hands down they could not be any worse for customer service! Got my deposit back and getting me new triton this week!

    Hi, Paul, I think you should bring to people's attention is the lack of quality. There was a case recently where a T60 rusted because it was parked at a surf club in QLD and the company said that they were not made to do that! Upon a detailed inspection, it was rusting from the welded joints in the body shell as well as the flat surfaces under the paint. In court, the judge actually commented that in his opinion they were made of inferior materials. Personally, I think Chinese cars have a long way to go but unfortunately most motoring journos are not telling the punters this sort of issue. Keep up the great work.

    Owned T60 Luxe four four years. One of the first ones without surround cameras. Over 150k km on the clock. Not garaged and no rust to be seen. Had issue with BCM at about 70k km. Was never fixed correctly but putting that down to dealer incompetence. Must take it back sometime. Had to change shocks at about 120k km. I am not a car prude and it gets serviced when I feel it needs a service, not when it tells me. Paid about 30k for it new and very happy with it. Yeah I could have gone for a Ranger for twice as much and without as much kit in it. All in all very happy. In fact I won’t be trading it in for the T60 Max because it is still too good. LDV may have caused themselves a few issues there.

    The Cannon seems a lot more sorted and resolved. Really the only reason you would look at the T60 is probably the power but there seem to be a multitude of other compromises. I've had a G10 van for 5 years and its served me well with no real issues as all.
    It really seems LDV missed the mark with this update however given a whole new generation of utes is around the corner. I prefer the non chrome front treatment we are getting compared to the t90 version however that tailgate is terrible. Lack of safety is not great and I just don't know why the Chinese can't get tech right when they make it for everyone else lol.

Personally I would never buy one glad i had the chance to drive it before I bought. Also the acceleration off the mark is shocking the lag is soooo bad had a idrive installed did not do anything for the lag intact I would have to say is extremely dangerous you really have to make sure the cars your pulling out infront of are seriously along way down the road. I have 2 other people I know that have bought these for themselves and all have the same issue.
