    Best Ute by Price, Size & Category in Aus

    A ute is a commercial vehicle with an open tray at the rear. Abbreviated from 'utility', utes are traditionally built for tradies, but are now often bought as off-road adventure machines and even family cars. Extra and dual-cab models add cabin versatility and seating for up to five over a regular single cab, and most are available as either a pickup or cab-chassis, with a choice of two or four-wheel drive.

    GWM Cannon Alpha 2025 review: Ultra Hybrid - GVM test
    8.5/10
    GWM won the race to launch Australia's first full-hybrid ute, but does it have what it takes to topple the traditional turbo-diesel?
    Mitsubishi Triton 2025 review: GLX-R - off-road test
    7.4/10
    The new-generation Mitsubishi Triton range marks the biggest change for the model in a long time: a new bi-turbo engine (150kW/470Nm), new chassis and suspension, overhauled design (with a longer wheelbase), and increased towing capacity, among a raft of changes.The new mid-grade GLX-R sports a few extras beyond what the lower-spec vehicles get - most importantly, Super Select 4WD-II.
    GWM Cannon XSR 2025 review: snapshot
    6.9/10
    As the flagship model grade in GWM's facelifted Cannon line-up, it naturally costs more. At $49,990, it's about $9000 more, in fact. So you’d expect it to have more of everything. It doesn’t.
