Autonomous emergency braking, as well as 3500kg towing, now standard across the 2025 LDV T60 line-up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The 2025 LDV T60<\/strong> ute has been updated with key safety features that will allow the Chinese brand to continue fielding its budget Ford Ranger rival, but the changes also come with a streamlined range and an increase to prices.<\/p>\n Cutting the eight-variant line-up down to three, all versions of the 2025 LDV T60<\/a> are now fitted with autonomous emergency braking (AEB) as standard \u2013 a requirement to meet the incoming Australian Design Rules (ADR) 98\/00 that has contributed to the discontinuation of the Mazda 6, and Mitsubishi ASX, Eclipse Cross and Pajero Sport.<\/p>\n In addition to AEB, the new base T60 Max Pro gains lane departure warning, lane-keep assist and adaptive cruise control \u2013 all already available on the top-spec T60 Max Plus.<\/p>\n Other additions to the entry-level T60 includes a high-definition reversing camera, digital radio, microfibre steering wheel and black roof rails, as well as a 500kg boost in braked towing capacity to take it to 3500kg.<\/p>\n With manual versions now discontinued, the automatic T60 Max Pro now opens the line-up with the changes resulting in a $2105 price rise to $45,253 drive-away for private customers.<\/p>\n Australian Business Number (ABN) holders can bag the 2025 LDV T60 Max Pro for $42,990.<\/p>\n As for the flagship T60 Max Plus, prices are up $1579 to $52,095 and $53,674 for the long wheelbase Mega Tub for private buyers, a smaller jump due to only a digital radio, high-definition surround-view monitor and braked towing capacity upgrade added this year.<\/p>\n ABN buyers can purchase the T60 Max Plus for $49,490 and $50,990 for standard and Mega Tub versions respectively.<\/p>\n The mid-tier Luxe grades are now no longer available.<\/p>\n As before, all T60s are powered by a 2.0-litre twin-turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine, sending 160kW\/500Nm to all four wheels via a ZF-sourced eight-speed automatic transmission.<\/p>\n Distinguishing the T60 Max Plus is also a blacked-out unique grille and sailplane in lieu of the Pro\u2019s chrome front fascia and sports bar.<\/p>\n The 2025 LDV T60 will arrive in Australian showrooms in this month.<\/p>\n The post 2025 LDV T60 price and specs: Safety upgrade comes with increased cost for budget Toyota HiLux rival<\/a> appeared first on Drive<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
