Its design ensures unchanged load volume and payload at 1 ton.The towable weight can reach 1 ton. The vehicle's battery is placed under the floor of the load compartment, which helps prevent any loss of load volume compared to conventional Proace, while lowering the centre of gravity.
The Dynamic trim includes manual air conditioning, electric and heated mirrors, a multimedia system with 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity and rear parking sensors.
The Business trim adds the “Look pack" which harmonises the paintwork of the bumpers and exterior door handles with that of the bodywork, as well as the Smart Entry & Start and the Toyota Pro-Touch navigation system.
