Maxus Deliver 9 Tipper Review

The Maxus Deliver 9 Tipper at a Glance

In 2020, we saw the van brand LDV become Maxus as they released their Deliver 9 van onto the market. As a complete replacement for the LDV V80, the Deliver 9’s UK specification is impressive, coming with loads of standard equipment, even on the base model. The ultra-modern 2.0-litre turbodiesel engine offers features that can help you avoid diesel particulate filter failures. It comes in a choice of front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive.  As well as the tipper, you can also choose from a panel van, dropside, Luton or low-loader so you can opt for the right van for you.

The Maxus Deliver 9 is reflective of the Ford Transit, which is a selling point for many prospective buyers as the Maxus offers a rival van that meets demands at a much more attractive price. This van has come leaps and bounds from the V80 and it comes at a very reasonable base price of £28,000 or £259 per month + VAT from Van Sales UK.

Engines & Spec

A question you’re probably asking is how powerful is the Maxus Deliver 9 Tipper? The good news is that it has a pretty powerful engine. It’s loaded with a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder diesel engine that provides a lot of torque. This replaces the old 2.5-litre in the V80 and helps the van to meet the Euro 6d emission requirements. For a relatively low price, the Maxus Deliver 9 offers 375 Nm of torque as well as a six-speed manual gearbox and electric power steering. This makes it a great van to drive, giving you an easy journey, even with high payloads.

Whether or not the Maxus Deliver 9 will meet your requirements depends on what you want the van for. It can reach peak speeds of 100mph and provides brake assist and the typical ABS system for emergency stops, so it’s an ideal van for many buyers. You can choose from standard or mid-size variants which provide all-wheel-drive and the larger models come with rear-wheel drive.

Interior

The Maxus Deliver 9 Tipper is also a joy to drive. The shiny, modern exterior is matched with a luxurious interior. The luxury spec in particular offers a range of excellent features that aid a smooth drive. With a touchscreen-enabled infotainment system, blind-spot monitoring and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, you’ll love your morning commute. You can also make use of the keyless entry to make your life even easier.

As soon as you step into the Maxus Deliver 9 Tipper cab, you’ll feel right at home. You can tell the cab is built to last and its features are durable and strong. Built to withstand the test of time, this tipper van is the ideal addition to your fleet. You can also enjoy air conditioning, cruise control and rear parking sensors – all the features of a quality van. The seats are very comfortable and will help you enjoy your ride in the van. If you spend long journeys driving in your van, the Maxus Deliver 9 is the ideal choice and will help you feel right at home from the minute you drive away from the dealer.

Pros & Cons

• Spacious and Comfortable
• Blindspot monitoring

Cons:

• Slow touchscreen monitor

The verdict

The Maxus Deliver 9 Tipper is a satisfying drive with excellent features, high torque and a 1,360kg payload as standard. It comes with a 3,500kg gross vehicle weight (GVW) which is the highest you can drive on a regular car licence. While it may lack some modern features, the competitive price makes this a reasonable purchase adequate for many heavy-duty jobs such as shifting loose building materials such as asphalt, construction aggregate, dirt, grain, gravel, sand, snow and wood chips in bulk efficiently around a worksite.

Overall it is a great improvement on the older LDV V80 and has come a long way in terms of power and comfort. Maxus offer a generous 5 year warranty and 5 year breakdown cover, so you can enjoy this van without any worries.
