Toyota says the Hiace Ses’fikile has been reimagined with a suffix that carries a deeper purpose, a version designed to accommodate persons with disabilities.

The Hiace PWD comes fully equipped with an automated rear ramp, making wheelchair access simple and seamless.

Built from the trusted 16-seater Hiace, the PWD model has been carefully adapted to strike a balance between comfort and practicality. It features three rows of original Hiace seats, accommodating nine passengers, as well as the wheelchair securely positioned at the rear so that its occupant is comfortably seated as though in a fourth row.

Safety and convenience are paramount, so the wheelchair bay is fitted with front and rear restraints for stability, and a sturdy ramp extension makes boarding and disembarking effortless. When not in use, the ramp folds neatly away, preserving the spacious interior.

“With this introduction, TSAM affirms its commitment to creating a more inclusive transport landscape. The Hiace PWD is more than just a vehicle – it is a statement of intent, a promise to make mobility accessible to everyone,” says Tasneem Lorgat, General Manager of Marketing Communications.

For families, schools and transport operators alike, it represents an opportunity to make every journey more inclusive, more comfortable and more people friendly.

The Toyota Hiace PWD will be available on a Customer Order Only basis (R761 713), ensuring each model is tailored to the needs of the people who matter most: the passengers.

Every Hiace PWD model comes standard with a 90 000km service plan (nine services) and 3-year/100 000km warranty, with flexible extension options available via Toyota’s vast national dealer network.
