Toyota Proace van review | Edd China's in-depth review | What Car?

[@LabRat6619]

Nice to see Ed on my screen again, but I really wanted an "under the hood" dig about to compare power plants of various vans.

[@klx100]

Edd China the best ;)! I really enjoy watching your vids buddy :)

[@daletur5328]

nice to see you back.

[@yeahman1975]

So great to see you. Great video

[@romanbatchi6000]

I have 2017 proace working car., only appreciate the comfort in summer time and gives headache in winter. Specially here in North, Only -10° and dash lights are going crazy, wiper blade is very low, heat can't reach and only getting freez.

[@TregMediaHD]

I just got the replacement for my 2011 VW amarok today .literally two hours before this video went live 24 july 2024 and a 52,000km 2022 proace as my new work van , ill keep you all posted

[@TregMediaHD]

Also met mijn porsche inspirerende VW 66 T1

[@royalordinance]

They're all great but Toyota is Superb.

[@MrTkeddo]

Just looking at this because this is our new work van we had a Transit custom previously and they were a nightmare it had software problems and not as powerful as the Southampton built ones .

[@MOSSFEEN]

Toyota Proace same as Peugeot Expert / Citroen Dispatch / Opel Vivaro This current shape is out since 2016

[@DougsCars]

Makes me wonder if a panel version of the Sienna minivan might sell here...plus I’d just like to see it as one!

[@merlindeg7605]

Genuine question...which of these small vans is the most comfortable to drive? I got a Transit connect custom 21 plate and its not comfy at all...

[@kktomm]

No such thing as a transit connect custom.....

[@golerosetak]

Hello Edd would you comment on Toyota proace verso 7 seater with 1.2L 3 cilinder petrol engine, is that reliable like other Toyota models,? It looks like funny for car at that size and that weight ?

[@julesdecort9040]

Can you do one about the fiat talento? Me and my husband are looking for a midsize mid van 👏

[@briancurran1140]

Are they available in USA 🇺🇸

[@Floof_Factory]

Whats the difference between the hiace and the proace?

[@jjdeville7884]

The proace isn’t even a Toyota

[@debendragurung3033]

Which company manufactures the Engine and drive train for their Proacd Vans?

[@stuco81]

It's all PSA group, the only thing the other two brands offered (Toyota, Vauxhall/Opel) was cash to cover the development . Same with the smaller vans based on the Berlingo/Partner.

[@beastman.330]

1992 = Toyota hiace 860,000 miles.

[@MegaRyan123456]

You won't be getting Toyota reliability from this Toyota 😂

[@Jinxid77]

Calling it in depth is a bit generous, but still useful, thanks! :)

[@sallinary4990]

Thanks Ed. You made my day

[@SoundSpeeding]

Does it have Toyota Safety Sense 2.0?

[@Prakicov]

Well, we all love Toyota, but sadly Toyota is not Toyota anymore...Supra is BMW, Proace is PSA, Yaris is Mazda 2, Aygo is PSA etc. On the other hand, yotas that are yotas ( Corolla, Camry and RAV4 ) don`t have diesel engines anymore... pure sadness

[@terrificspokesman7416]

They should sell the Hiace

[@Okkie26]

Yaris is Mazda 2, Aygo is PSA ?? WRONG... Mazda2 is Yaris, and PSA is Aygo.

[@garybrown5769]

This platform has independent rear suspension, the custom has a beam - not sure how you think the latter handles better

[@dantheman1337]

Exactly

[@ainultmuss]

Thank you for giving measurments in mm.

[@nhankhuu5643]

Lovely Jubbly, go Edd.

You dipstick

[@SimonAmbas]

Top Edd! Golden mechanic!

[@Negito-b6u]

Edd is simply numero uno. Nuff said.

[@Kuld4r]

Proace is a well rounded disaster. Cockpit is so “well” sealed that the rear sliding doors do not shut properly unless you open a front door/window. 2.0d Engines start having major problems after 100 000 km. Rear sliding doors fall off the rails constantly. Car might randomly lose all electricity and totally shut down for no reason. Front door window frames bend over time which introduces a gap between the door and the seal, which in turn allows rain water to come in while driving. These are only a few of the problems after using this car for 2 years. Don’t buy it, get a transporter or transit.

[@Kuld4r]

Oh and also expect the car to be in service at least half the time you own it. 😉

[@avragetrinidadian3787]

Thank... Never thought I see the day Toyota made a stinker

[@honda900000]

@@avragetrinidadian3787 The Proace is not a Toyota. It's a badge engineering car, a development by Peugeot/Citroen.

[@GodmadeTrends]

@@honda900000 that’s right. The hiace is a Toyota though

[@don-qb4xb]

Shame on you Toyota. Getting into bed with the French. Toyota vans used to be legendary for reliability. Not anymore. Also did anyone else notice the van in the static shots had UK plates but Edd was driving a left hand drive version.

[@laracroft938]

They should sell the hiace in UK.

[@ryadhasanahmed5443]

don21 late reply but Toyota couldn't sell their actual Hiace models like they do in Asia, Africa, Middle East and AU/NZ markets. It wouldn't comply with the stupid European regulations we have so Toyota had no choice to partner with a European brand whose already met those regulations in order to sell

[@corusameoccasum1274]

Does this mean their van isn't reliable? I'm looking to buy a very reliable and economical small van. Any recommendations?

[@Pmjs]

Toyota already collaborated with PSA with their Aygo based on Peugeot 107&Citroën C1.

[@terrificspokesman7416]

@@ryadhasanahmed5443 so you have to import one

[@warren6815]

Despite it being 'pipped' by the Transporter and Transit in various areas, it having issues with visibility and questionable ergonomics, it still gets five stars? How? Especially when the Vivaro, which is effectively the same van, only gets a four star rating.

[@dantheman1337]

Vivaro is a Renault Trafic

[@Flavuk]

Why not offer the hydrogen engines they have? Or an hybrid ? You might aswell buy a citroen

[@jayb8439]

Nice to see you ed

[@ShorrockPeter]

Great work ♥️

[@godfatherNYC]

Is this pure Toyota? The switchgear (radio knobs, etc.) looks more like VW to me.

Can you get an 8x4 sheet in it on edge?

[@streetsleeper4]

No the bulkhead sticks out too far

[@philipwatson7883]

Great vid Edd

[@thedeadstig123]

is that built in the same vauxhall plant same as the vivaro then?

[@dantheman1337]

I think they are wrong on this. The Vauxhall was the same as Renault Trafic and nissan pathfinder

[@Silverlilly1967]

So spiffy but why cant the USA get this model?

[@alanmay7929]

Toyota also makes their 100% vans in Asia its the hiace and the coaster

[@theunknown1426]

is this better than the VW caddy

[@mradam4430]

Banging on about ice cream vans again 😂

[@kaitang3226]

Am I dreaming or did Edd drive 2 Proace, one left steering wheel and one right steering wheel?

[@mrma644]

You might want to improve on your filming or video editing and directing. 1. Too dark [both the scene and inside the van] 2. Your cutaways do not relate to what Edd is talking about [showing the dashboard at the time when he is talking about the gear or how spacious the van is.] 3. voice needs to be increased 4. Try driving it while talking about it [like in top gear] 5. Show us a few photos parts of the van that we can't see e.g its engine, gearbox etc...

[@shaungilmartin1505]

these are largely just sales brochure reviews.......van people want to know about mpg and long term reliability not Apple Car play

[@bangobain]

Sorry me ol" china but I'll be sticking to my 2001 tyt hiace aka the a.k Kalashnikov of vans until Toyota decides to bring to the U.K a van of their own making.

[@deanwaters]

I agree have a hiace d4d 2010 model "these so called Toyota" vans aren't Toyota's sorry to say

[@russvhill2]

If you're going to reverse the video, at least get the tee shirt wording printed backwards. How many people didn't listen to what Ed was saying because their brains were trying to think why he was suddenly driving a left hand drive while the B Roll was showing a British road?

[@intertr0ns]

Edd rules

[@MS-xx7vg]

Are you the mecanicien from CAR SOS ?

[@only1stefan]

i have the 115bhp 1.6 version and i love it such a great van .

[@sgs89H]

I'm really interested to know what mpg you're getting? - I'm always sceptical if the official figures that get released. Cheers

[@only1stefan]

@@sgs89H i get around 35-38 on the motorway and the same around town i think realy because i have the 5 speed and at 70 the revs are quite high i still love it

[@sgs89H]

To me that's a bit disappointing considering they advertise it at 54? Mpg! I have a 2.5L Hiace which gives me no trouble at all and around 35mpg but I'd like something more economical as I'm doing 400miles a week

[@f04107180]

The gear stick location is poor design. Middle passenger does not sit properly and risks injury to the back due to the twisted way they have to sit. Such basics yet they still do it wrong.

[@leafyboy68]

Interior looks old fashioned. This van not a patch on the new Ford Transit.

[@steveg2479]

Toyota do make vans. Just not this one. I have a Hiace, and won’t be buying one of these any time soon ☹️

Hi Edd ! Do you have an account Instagram?

At least they adopt the ev model from PSA too, sou the don't get lost. Toyota, time is ticking. Wake up and offer ev models, otherwise you loose half of buyers.

[@yiannisdanatzis2889]

Forget it, Hiace can't be brought into Europe, does not meet emissions criteria, Hiace can only be sold in Asian countries and Australia, but in Europe Toyota has to substitute a French van from Citroen/Peugeot and rebadge it as a Toyota Proace.

[@toyotaprius79]

Toyota's biggest stupidity : not bothering to make a Hybrid van for over a decade Whereas PSA are already ahead of that idea with EVs.
