Utes under $50k
If you find yourself shopping in the sub $50k range for a new ute, you’re in luck. The segment is booming at the moment, with dual-cab utes like the Toyota Hilux and Ford Ranger regularly swapping blows on the sales charts for the title of best-selling vehicle of the month. Speaking of which, there are variants of those two titans that can be found for less than $50,000, while further offerings from Mitsubishi, Nissan, Holden, Isuzu and Mazda round out our segment.
While you may be limited in terms of creature comforts on some models, you can afford yourself a lot of choice for $50,000 ute, with multiple body styles, multiple engines and transmissions available from some key brands.
