LDV T60 Elite – Built to Work. Designed to Move.
The LDV T60 Elite is where rugged reliability meets everyday practicality
The LDV T60 Elite is where rugged reliability meets everyday practicality. Whether you’re tackling the daily grind or heading off the beaten track, this bakkie is ready to show up and get the job done — without the ego.
Available in 4×4 and 4×2, the Elite gives you choice without compromise. Powered by a 2.0L Turbo Diesel engine, you’ve got 120kW of power and 375Nm of torque under your right foot — enough grunt to tow up to 3 tons (braked) or confidently take on steep climbs and long hauls.
Inside, it’s not pretending to be a luxury lounge — and that’s the point. It’s clean, tough, and modern enough to keep you connected on the move, with features like:
- Touchscreen infotainment system
- Apple CarPlay®
- Cruise Control
- Reversing Camera
- LED Daytime Running Lights
This isn’t a bakkie for showing off in the parking lot. It’s built for working, hauling, and moving you forward, whether that’s through city traffic or dusty job sites.
And with LDV’s 5-year/200,000km warranty and a 5-year/100,000km service plan, you’re not just buying a bakkie — you’re buying peace of mind.
What’s It Like on the Road?
On the road, the T60 Elite feels solid — you know you’re driving something built to work. The diesel engine responds with confidence, and whether you’re carrying a load or cruising the freeway, it holds its own. The ride is firmer than your everyday SUV, but that’s expected in this segment. Still, it doesn’t punish you for potholes and uneven surfaces. Steering is light enough for city use, while the elevated driving position gives you good road visibility.
In 4×4, the Elite shows off its muscle — gripping, climbing, and pushing through with ease. It’s not built for showboating, it’s built for doing.

Mads’ Last Thoughts
If you’re looking for a bakkie that’s all bark and no bite, keep moving.
But if you need a dependable, capable, no-nonsense machine that’ll hustle Monday to Friday and take a detour into the wild on weekends — the LDV T60 Elite is 100% worth a second look.
It’s not flashy, but it’s solid. It’s the friend who helps you move house and doesn’t ask for fuel money.
And with the 5-year/200,000km warranty and 5-year/100,000km service plan, it’s got your back long after the test drive ends.
