Getting the job done.
The story of Toyota
Commercial Vehicles.
Getting the job done. That’s been our motto for more than half a century. No matter the
terrain, no matter the weather, no matter the load, our engineers’ pursuit of perfection
will ensure we meet our mantra. At Toyota, we know that every job matters and we know
that the quality, durability and reliability we promise is crucial.
There through thick and thin.
We’ve done it tough since day one. Back in 1958, on the
slopes of the Snowies, our very first LandCruiser was used
as a tool for thousands of Snowy Mountain Hydro Scheme
workers. It got them to their worksite, and home again,
every day. Their back-breaking work on unforgiving and
unpredictable land was shouldered by this unbreakable
workhorse. No wonder it’s known as the 4WD that
built Australia.
Now, more than fifty years on, we’re still at work building
the nation. Our commercial fleet is still getting the job
done everywhere and more Australians rely on us than ever
before. From cattle drovers to camel catchers, boaties to
brickies, our quality, durability and reliability is expected.
And still there’s work to be done.
We boast the toughest, strongest, and smartest work
vehicles ever made, because we’ve been there before. We
work to bring you the best vehicles to tackle the toughest
terrain on earth, and we’ll continue to evolve and strive to
make each Toyota better than the last.
OUR VISION
HiAce
Long Wheelbase model shown.
Front cover: Super Long Wheelbase model shown.
HiAce has been building its reputation for longer than
most have been building their businesses. And as any
professional knows, when you build a better product,
people stick with you.
For over thirty-five years, HiAce has been there for
Australians no matter what the task. Toyota listened
to what buyers wanted now and in the future, whether
government, fleet or private operators and set out to build
a van that would meet the high demands of its operators.
HiAce is built to carry more and work harder than ever
before, yet it’s even nicer to get along with, because you’re
going to be spending a lot of time aboard this HiAce.
The engines are powerful, yet efficient. Longer service
intervals for turbo-diesel engines reduce downtime,
plus, petrol engines are LPG compatible for even greater
flexibility. In the Long Wheelbase (LWB) and the Super
Long Wheelbase (SLWB), there’s more cargo carrying
capacity than ever. The Commuter Bus has plenty of
comfort features and carries fourteen adults including
the driver.
With typical Toyota quality, durability and reliability, this is
the vehicle you can stake your livelihood on. And wearing
the HiAce badge, it projects a look of professionalism to your
customers that will take your business to another level.

TECHNOLOGY
The power of
high technology.
HiAce will move you and your load with two reliable engines,
and they’ll perform with impressive efficiency, vital in today’s
competitive business world where reduced running costs add
up to greater profitability. You have the choice of a twin cam
VVT-i equipped 2.7 litre petrol engine which is LPG compatible
or a hard-working 3.0 litre turbocharged intercooled common
rail diesel.
Advanced technology petrol engine.
The 2.7 litre petrol engine is the first twin overhead cam petrol
engine in a HiAce. Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i),
normally only found in passenger cars, ensures greater flexibility
and performance. This is especially helpful when driving a heavily
laden vehicle. Peak power of 111kW comes in at a relatively low
4,800rpm with 241Nm of load-lugging torque at 3,800rpm. Twin
counter-rotating balance shafts reduce vibration for smoother,
quieter running. Countless innovations are also to be found
throughout the engine, from the injection to the valve gear to
the ignition system. What hasn’t Toyota done to maximise engine
efficiency and reduce friction emissions? The 2.7 litre petrol
engine also meets strict Euro IV emissions requirements and
ensures increased reliability and less maintenance down the track.
A high-technology diesel that delivers.
A turbo-diesel engine is available across the HiAce range and
this engine is purpose built for commercial vehicles - they’re
yet another powerful reason to choose HiAce.
The direct injection turbo-diesel engine produces 100kW
at 3400rpm and a lofty 300Nm of torque between 1200 and
2400rpm. This flat torque curve means this engine keeps
pulling its weight all the way up the rev range. Being a common
rail diesel engine, fuel is pumped at extremely high pressure for
better atomisation and lower fuel consumption. So you’ll feel
the benefit behind the wheel and on your bottom line. This twin
cam engine design with electronic engine management ensures
greater fuel efficiency, smoothness and quieter running.
Optimum use of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) reduces and
controls Nitrous Oxide emissions, while the electronic ‘driveby-wire’ throttle system makes for easier driveability.

NAME
Model Shown
Commuter Bus model shown.
Smooth operator.
Nippy handling, safer cornering.
Toyota didn’t just stop at high performing engines. Hard-working
suspension and steering mean HiAce handles responsively, is
quiet and is easier to get along with. So hopping from job to job
will be a breeze. Power-assisted rack & pinion steering offers
greater road feel and more precise turning in tight spots.
The rack stroke and steering angle have been optimised to
reduce the turning circle. An aerodynamic front bumper
with air dams each side, plus careful suspension tuning have
also enhanced straight line stability and turning. The doublewishbone type front suspension with long torsion bars offers a
comfortable ride, maximising wheel travel and suspension life.
So after long days in the saddle, you’ll be pleased you’re in a HiAce.
Smoother transmissions.
Whichever engine you choose, Toyota has developed transmissions
perfectly suited to the engines. You have the option of a 5-speed
manual transmission or there’s also a 4-speed, electronically
controlled (ECT) automatic transmission offering improved
shift feel and reduced shift shock, for smoother acceleration.
The gated shift ensures precise gear selection, and an electronic
shift lock and key interlock mechanism aids safety. The shifter is
conveniently located on the dash, so you can move around the
cab more easily.

Space travel.
With longer wheelbases than ever before, the LWB
and SLWB HiAce models have incredible interior space.
The more squared off overall body design not only looks
more stylish and professional, it optimises the interior
room. The radiator and engine has been pushed forward
to optimise interior room, while the small bonnet allows
easy checking of fluids. The smart body design of the
LWB means a large 6.0 cubic metres of cargo capacity
whilst the SLWB van, with its wider body and higher roof,
has a full 9.8 cubic metres of cargo volume, making it the
biggest HiAce van ever. Each vehicle’s longer wheelbase
means the wheels are moved towards each end of the
vehicle, which also means greater straight line stability.
Easy loading, fast getaways.
Let’s face it, whenever you’re unloading you’re in a hurry,
in a congested street or in a loading zone. To help make
life easier, remote central locking is standard and the side
door openings have also been made suitably wide enough
for easier kerbside access. In the SLWB, there are sliding
doors on both sides, while three interior lights (two in the
cargo area) help you see what you’re doing after dark. With
HiAce’s slim tail lights, the width of the rear door opening
is maximised for easier loading and unloading. Plus a strap
incorporated on the inside of the rear door of LWB and
SLWB vans helps you with pulling down the rear door when
you’re done. Additionally, on every model, drivers have a
rear door mounted reversing mirror for added vision.
Comfort without stops.
Hard working days will no longer be hard labour. Air
conditioning with a clean air filter is fitted as standard,

while the ease of power steering and supportive seats help
reduce fatigue. In the Commuter Bus, passengers will enjoy
a rear cooler ventilation system with overhead directional
outlets. The ergonomic three-dial instrumentation cluster
has two electric trip meters for mileage checking, and power
front windows to make your ride more convenient.
A power sliding door is also available as an option on
Commuter bus, which allows for easy access to the rear
passenger area in one of three simple ways: by grabbing
the inner or outer door handle; via a switch located on the
instrument panel; or simply by pressing a button located
on the vehicle key.
There are plenty of storage recesses to reduce cabin clutter,
with document or map storage in the moulded front door
pockets and glovebox. The centre seatback on van models
folds forward, offering a handy table with two cupholders
for your lunch, or a foldout tray to hold order books or
clipboards. If you get thirsty, retractable dual cupholders in
the dash and bottle holders built into the front door trims
help keep your drinks secure.
The HiAce’s standard audio system is an MP3 compatible
CD player with AM/FM radio, USB audio input for some
iPod®1 and USB sticks,2 as well as Bluetooth™3 capabilities.
The two speaker system in the van models or four in the
bus are accompanied by full length headlining which helps
to reduce ambient noise. This means those long days on the
road can still be entertaining.

Dual front SRS airbags.
Safer working conditions.
HiAce benefits from Toyota’s two
decades spent developing safer
chassis design for ‘one-box’ (from
vans to people movers) vehicles.
The most advanced Computer
Aided Engineering (CAE) tools were
employed to develop an advanced
body design. This helped HiAce
achieve excellent safety standards.
Tests included Full Lap Front Collision
Impact Testing and Offset Deformable
Barrier Testing for the Van and Bus.
Numerous reinforcements are
integrated at key locations throughout
the body design. A unique vertical
Y-frame or ‘crocodile’ design of the
front chassis rails helps absorb impact
energy. The front frame members have
been straightened to increase impact
absorbing ability. Side members
are double layered to disperse and
absorb crash impact energy. There
are front bumper reinforcement
and reinforcement beams in the
front doors. We even went as far as
developing a mechanism which moves
the brake booster away in a collision.
1 Not fitted to centre seatbelt on Van models.
2 Standard from August 2010 production.
Standards of occupant restraint have
also been increased. Dual front SRS
airbags are fitted as standard, plus
the driver and front passenger seats
have Emergency Locking Retractor
(ELR) type seatbelts.1 They incorporate
pre-tensioners which lock up in a
collision and force limiters to relieve
the pressure on the upper torso. In the
Commuter Bus, all rear seats also have
three point ELR seatbelts.
Superior active safety systems.
Hard-working brakes, impressive
handling, dynamic stability and
reduced chance of driver fatigue are
just some of the ways Toyota helps
you avoid danger. Anti-skid Braking
System (ABS) with Brake Assist (BA)
which supplements your braking effort
during sudden stops is standard across
the range.2

The Toyota Advantage.
Capped-price servicing.1
New Toyotas come with Toyota Service Advantage. For the first 3 years or 60,000km
(whichever comes first) you’ll pay the same low capped price for logbook servicing, so
you know what to expect when you take your vehicle in. And because your car will be
serviced by Toyota-trained technicians who only ever use Toyota Genuine Parts, you
know what to expect when you drive it out too.
We’ve got your back.
Every new Toyota is built to exceptional standards, which is backed by a
3 year/100,000km2 warranty, giving you the peace of mind to feel confident for
years to come.
Finance to get you going.
Sometimes you need just a little help to get up and running. Toyota Finance3 can offer
you a wide range of vehicle financing. From personal loans to leasing for all kinds of
business, we can help.
Even more protection.
Everyone needs vehicle insurance, but take out our Comprehensive Motor Vehicle
insurance and you’ll get a policy packed with a great range of benefits.
These include:
- Where your Toyota becomes a total loss, is under 3 years old and has less than
100,000km on the clock, we’ll replace it with a brand new Toyota vehicle.
- We’ll also promise to use genuine new Toyota parts to repair your vehicle if it is
less than 5 years old.
- And we’ll guarantee the quality of workmanship on all authorised repairs as long
as you remain the owner of the vehicle.
Toyota Insurance also offers Finance Gap Insurance, Payment Protection Insurance and
Extended Warranty Insurance.4
Extend your peace of mind.
Extend your original factory warranty by up to 3 years with the Toyota Extra Care
Extended Factory Warranty. Available on most new and used Toyotas,5 it will give you
extra peace of mind – as will membership to our Roadside Assist service, offering
breakdown assistance 24/7. Rest assured should your vehicle be immobilised by a
