While well-known for passenger cars and sports utility vehicles, Hyundai has also earned a worldwide reputation for freight trucks. Robustly designed for rugged use, their fleet ranges from smaller trucks that do not require a special license to full sized tractor-trailers capable of handling almost any heavy duty load. .
Our selection mostly features the popular EX series of truck. These range from a 5.5 tonne light version to the industry and series leader EX 9 that features a nearly 5,000 mm deck and 8.2 tonne GVW rating. The EX series underscores the versatility of Hyundai options. Their design and durability make trucks in this series perfect for a wide variety of operations, from refrigerated delivery to tippers.
Out of a series developed for versatility, this serves as the most convenient trucks for general use. Its tonnage falls slightly below Australian requirements for a special heavy vehicle license. Anyone with a conventional car license can operate these vehicles.
Hyundai offers the EX 4 series with three important adaptations, a refrigerated, tipper, and pantech options. It also comes in short and medium wheel-base configurations. The EX 4 features a 3.9 litre common-rail four-cylinder turbo diesel engine with two output levels. With 140 horsepower at 2500 rpm and a max torque value of 392Nm at 1400 rpm, this vehicle may be smaller in size, but mighty in performance. A five-speed manual transmission ensures top control and less reliance on brakes, particularly on curvy or hilly highways.
The interior also reflects Hyundai’s commitment to driver comfort. In the past few years, Hyundai has added cab features to accentuate comfort and function for the driver. Whether new to driving trucks or a seasoned veteran, the EX 4 serves as an ideal vehicle for light delivery and work service.
This 6.5 tonne GVW comes in three standard wheelbases, giving this model the same versatility expected in all Hyundai trucks. All versions can come as either a cab chassis or a tipper. A larger size and heavier weight make the EX 6 ideal for haulage, construction work, or other related purposes.
The EX 6 offers boosted power and torque over the EX 4 and even above other vehicles in its class to safely handle expanded carrying capabilities. It features a maximum of 170 hp (125 kW) and 610 Nm of torque. Added power and performance establish strong performance and versatility.
Like the EX 4, the EX 6 offers a five-speed manual transmission. Like all EX series vehicles, the front bumper includes vertical headlights with daytime running lights. This will enhance vehicle and driver safety, especially in difficult weather conditions during the daytime.
One of Hyundai’s most popular heavy-duty options, the EX 8 is available in medium, long, and extra-long wheelbases. Its 7.8 tonne GVW body can handle long range hauling of heavy loads or on-site work. Like the EX 6, the EX 8 boasts 170 hp (125 kW) and 610 Nm of torque, providing more power and torque to handle more demanding loads. The EX 8 also features a six-speed manual transmission for optimised control and reduced reliance on braking.
Like the EX 4 and EX 6, the EX 8 offers a choice between the comfortable standard cab and a more spacious supercab designed to serve drivers on long distance hauls. The EX series offers a range of exciting features with each offering. Many of the improvements center around comfort and safety. A pillars and larger windows improve driver visibility while double seal weather strips reduce cab noise. Powerful HVAC systems ensure that drivers can precisely control cab climate conditions. Drivers will enjoy an AM/FM audio system featuring Bluetooth capabilities. The system works well with both MP3 and iPod devices. All EX trucks have four or more 12-volt outlets.
Every EX model has a complete array of both active and passive safety features. These include, but are not limited to Vehicle Dynamic Control for better stability, shock absorbing steering that minimises vibrations to reduce gradual driver fatigue, four-wheel disc brakes, and hill start assist.
