2022 Toyota Hiace Commuter GL GDH322R ELWB High Roof

The 2022 Toyota Hiace Commuter GL is a long-wheelbase people mover designed around practical access, generous interior space and dependable commercial usability. Finished in white and presented with 56,199km, this ELWB High Roof version combines the familiar Hiace platform with the added capacity and flexibility expected of a commuter bus.

Its 2.8-litre turbo-diesel engine produces 420 Nm of torque and is paired with an automatic transmission, making the vehicle straightforward to operate in urban traffic and during regular passenger transport duties. Rear-wheel drive suits the Hiace's conventional commercial-vehicle layout, while the 70-litre fuel tank provides useful capacity for longer working days between refuelling stops.

A major point of difference is the fitted wheelchair-access equipment. The bus includes a wheelchair lift, one wheelchair capacity and a compliance certificate, giving it a purpose-built accessibility function rather than simply offering conventional passenger seating. The manual passenger entry step and entry handles further support easier access, while the electric passenger-side sliding door helps manage boarding in confined kerbside or depot environments.

The high-roof body and ELWB configuration create a useful combination of interior volume and passenger access. At 5,915 mm long, 1,950 mm wide and 2,280 mm high, it has the substantial proportions expected of a full-size commuter bus, so operating clearances and parking arrangements should be considered. Four doors provide practical entry and exit points, while the listed 12-seat capacity offers flexibility for passenger transport applications alongside the wheelchair provision.

Equipment extends beyond the core transport function. A reverse camera, forward and reverse parking sensors, forward collision warning, rear cross-traffic alert, lane departure warning and blind-spot monitoring provide useful assistance when manoeuvring or working in busy surroundings. Cruise control is also fitted for sustained road travel. These systems do not replace careful driving, but they can make managing a large bus less demanding during everyday use.

Inside, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide a familiar way to access compatible phone functions, while GPS navigation, Bluetooth, USB input and DAB+ digital radio support communication and entertainment on the move. The six-speaker stereo and auxiliary 12-volt socket add further convenience, and the 16-inch alloy wheels provide a durable, finished appearance.

The Hiace's dimensions, diesel powertrain and accessible passenger configuration make this a specialised vehicle with a clear operational focus. It is best suited to a buyer who needs a compliant passenger bus with wheelchair access already incorporated, while its automatic transmission, parking aids and connected infotainment help keep daily use manageable. The vehicle is listed as drive-away and carries stock reference 00009054.
