Better than Toyota HiAce? 2023 Hyundai Staria Load review: Premium | New panel van gets all the gear

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

The 2023 Hyundai Staria Load mid-size van just got a lot more appealing for fleet buyers with the introduction of a new flagship grade, the aptly named Premium, which should have the rivalling Toyota HiAce quaking in its proverbial boots.
That's right; you can now buy a version of the iLoad successor that comes with more of the features from the related Staria people mover, including LED headlights! It's the little things, you know.
In this expert review, CarsGuide Journalist Tom White spends a week with the new Staria Load Premium to see if it's shot straight to the top of the 'most desirable panel van' list. Spoiler alert: It's surprisingly good. No, seriously.

    I like how the video opens on the biggest flaw of the van, the insanely narrow side door, having not learnt from the last generation

    What a fabulously looking vehicle. We should have more of this, instead of the bulky SUVs we see everywhere now...

    I've had my premium (black as well) for a couple of months now, didn't think I would love a van as much as this. The tech, the looks and drivability are fantastic. The extra $5000 for premium version is definitely worth it.

    I got the basic model last year for courier work, it’s great, engine is very quiet, transmission also great. Driving around just like normal MPV rather than commercial van, feels better than the new Hiace, not as wide as the hiace which is good to going in and out the driveway.

    As likes were on zero, I couldn't down vote your electric option for a commercial van which does over 1000 km each day in many cases. Sorry sir your package will be there tomorrow, I have to recharge my van.

    Just launched here in Ireland comes with 3 front seats as standard with the middle one folding into a work station and 2 extra cupholders Stardard all steel bulkhead with a window ?? and 2 barn doors out back 2.2 diesel 6 speed box all for 44K euros RIP OFF a LWB Peugeot Expert is 10k cheaper as is the Fiat Scudo, Citroen Dispatch, Toyota Proace, Opel Vivaro. For 44K I could get a VW Crafter a class size up Cant say I wont see many of them on the road at that price looks like a Chinese Knock off FUGLY

    Its not as good as a Hiace which manufacturer has the best reputation Toyota off course it is one of the best reputation in the whole motoring industry do they have recalls yes minor electronic cliches fo they catch fire no are they built well do they last 20 30 40 years yes l know l own a a 26 year old Toyota hilux are they reliable yes my Toyota Hilux has 432000 kilometers on it do they last yes Hyundai only last for 5 to 10 years fo they catch fire yes do they get recalls yes for there engines and Hyundai and Kia engines yes engines are changed under recall Kia and Hyundai can't build a decent car but on the other hand Toyota can plenty of 20 and 30 year old Toyotas driving around before you start saying the Hyundai Staria is better than a Toyota Hiace think again compare the Hyundai Staria to a Toyota Alphard or Vellfire these people movers are the Kings of people movers
