Even more value for budget Chinese van: 2026 LDV Deliver 7 available with desirable gear for no extra cost as it competes to be affordable rival to Toyota HiAce and Ford Transit Custom

The option pack including these features normally costs $1500, but LDV are throwing in the extra gear for free.

With the options, the Deliver 7 now starts at $46,305 for the short-wheel base, and $48,411 for the long-wheel base.

The deal only applies to the diesel Deliver 7, not the all-electric eDeliver 7. 

A comparative automatic long-wheel base Toyota HiAce starts from more than $59,000 (drive-away), with an additional left sliding door also available at no extra cost. 

The Deliver 7 also comes in cheaper than the Ford Transit Custom, which has a starting price of more than $63,000 (drive-away) and dual rear sliding doors cost an extra $1000. 

LDV's offering has a superior payload to many of its rivals as well at 1290kg, including the HiAce and the Transit Custom.

Another part of the package is a 360-degree camera in addition to the standard reversing camera and front and rear parking sensors. 

The van also gets 16-inch alloy wheels as part of the upgrades, as opposed to the steel wheels which it normally comes with. 

The Deliver 7 launched in Australia in November 2024, joining the eDeliver 7 which launched earlier in the year.

It has a 2.0-litre turbo-diesel engine, producing 124kW and 390Nm. It is matched to a nine-speed automatic transmission, driving the front wheels. 

LDV has been offering discounts on several of its vehicles in the past month, including the D90 SUV and the Terron 9 ute.
