Toyota adds Proace Max to its range
The Toyota Professional range of light commercial vehicles has been augmented with the addition of the Proace Max – the largest vehicle in the range, available in four configurations with two wheelbase lengths, three overall lengths and two height options to provide multiple load-carrying possibilities.
In its largest form, the Proace Max Electric has a 17m³ cargo capacity. Full height doors and a practical square opening with a low threshold make for easy access. The doors open to 270˚, maximising kerbside loading space and access.
The powertrain uses the latest battery technology to provide zero tailpipe emissions driving and a range of up to 260 miles (WLTP standard). The powertrain is expected to provide best-in-class performance, with the EV battery adding up to 12.5 miles (20km) to the driving range. Carrying capacity is up to a maximum 6.6 m³ while the 1,400kg payload is best in the model’s class. The platform is suitable for a wide range of conversions, including one or three-way tipper and dropside beds, plus optional chassis, platform and crew cab lay-outs.
The Proace family has also had a facelift with a new frontal design, with full LED lighting and alloy wheels are available (according to model) to create an even more distinctive appearance.
The interiors feature new steering wheel designs and equipment features, including (according to grade) fully digital displays and multimedia systems with built-in navigation and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration.
