LDV South Africa has added a new entry model to its line‑up with the launch of the T60 Utility Single Cab. Priced from R299 900, it is positioned as one of the most affordable single‑cab bakkies in the country, aimed at businesses and fleet operators who require a dependable workhorse with modern equipment.
What is it?
The T60 Utility Single Cab is a new derivative within LDV’s commercial vehicle portfolio. It complements the existing T60 Double Cab and sits alongside LDV’s broader range of vans and SUVs. Designed to meet demand for rugged yet practical vehicles, it offers a lower cost option without compromising on capability.
Exterior:
The Utility Single Cab has a straightforward design focused on durability. Measuring 5 395 mm in length, 1 900 mm in width and 1 830 mm in height, it provides a solid stance. Standard exterior features include a high‑mounted brake light, rear fog lamp and differential lock. The model is available in both 4x2 and 4x4 configurations, with a payload capacity of up to 1 170 kg and a braked towing capacity of 3 000 kg.
Interior:
Inside, the cabin is functional yet equipped with key features for everyday use. Driver and passenger airbags, ABS with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, and hydraulic power steering are standard. Comfort and convenience are supported by air conditioning, Bluetooth‑enabled radio and selectable Eco, Power and Normal driving modes. The spacious cabin benefits from the generous 3 155 mm wheelbase, providing a stable ride and adequate room for occupants.
Powertrain:
The T60 Utility Single Cab is powered by a 2.0‑litre turbo‑diesel engine producing 120 kW and 410 Nm of torque. It is paired with a six‑speed manual transmission. Fuel consumption is rated at 7.5 l/100 km on the highway and 8.7 l/100 km in urban driving, LDV claims. The combination of torque output and towing capacity makes it suitable for varied workloads, from urban deliveries to off‑road job sites.
Price:
The LDV T60 Utility Single Cab is priced from R299 900, making it one of the most competitively positioned single‑cab bakkies in South Africa.
