Okay, sometimes even we admit you just have to be practical when in comes to automotive choices - but that doesn't mean a work vehicle can't be fun too. This year's Adelaide Motor Show features a large selection of vans, utes and commercial vehicles from a number of the world's leading automotive manufacturers. Here's a sneak preview of just a few highlights:

IVECO – a Daily insight into something new

The Iveco Daily range of van and cab-chassis light com- mercials combine the economy and ease of operation of a passenger car with the toughness of a truck. Featuring parallel-rail, full-chassis construction, rear-wheel drive and the choice of two economical and powerful turbodiesel engines, the Daily range introduces new levels of strength, durability and versatility to the Australian light commercial market. See the Iveco Daily range on display at the 2008 Adelaide Motor Show.

Mitsubishi Rolls Up Its Sleeves And Gets To Work

The dependability and toughness of the Mitsubishi range of commercial vehicles is unquestionable. The Triton range of utes and cab-chassis vehicles plus the Express range of light-commercial vans are a familiar sight on roads, farms, building sites and work places across Australia. Whatever the model, Mitsubishi produce economical work horses to get the job done. See a range of Triton and Express models on displat at this year's Adelaide Motor Show.

C'est Magnifique Renault!

As Europe's number one selling car maker, Renault brings over a century of experience in manufacture and design to its range of light commercial vehicles. Believing that your vehicle is a highly visible and mobile advertisement for your business, the Renault range is as stylish as it is functional. The Kangoo, Trafic and Master ranges provide outstanding fuel efficiency with the levels of driver comfort and safety you'd expect from a passen- ger vehicle. Irrespective of the model, the big load capacity (up to 12.6m3 in some Master models) and ease of access make Renault commercial vehicles a great business associate. See them for yourself at this year's Adelaide Motor Show.

Oh What A Feeling, Commercial

From the 'unbreakable' HiLux and legendary LandCruiser, through to the HiAce vans and Coaster mid-sized bus, Toyota's range of commercial vehicles caters to the needs of virtually any business or tradesperson. The sheer range of models supported by the renowned efficiency and reliability of the Toyota marque make these some of the most sought after work vehicles in Australia. Many models in the Toyota range underwent significant upgrades during 2007, so get along and see the new models for yourself at the 2008 Adelaide Motor Show.

Hyundai - Ready To Carry The Load

Hyundai, now the world's fifth largest automotive manufac- turer, has made its highly anticipated move into the Australian light commercial vehicle market. The new Hyundai iLoad – a three-seat van or six-seat crew van, and the Hyundai iMax – an executive shuttle with space for eight passengers and their luggage, burst on to the local market in February of 2008 and the reception has been positive. Designed to rival European and Japanese offerings, the Hyundai iLoad and Hyundai iMax deliver comfort, style, versatility and practicality in a working vehicle at an affordable price. See the new iLoad and iMax at the 2008 Adelaide Motor Show.
