Toyota Probox Full Review
Toyota Probox was first introduced in 2002 as a 5-door station wagon and light commercial van. People use the Toyota Probox, and Toyota Succeed interchangeably since they look similar in shape. However, the Toyota Probox is shorter than the Succeed by 105mm.
Let’s dive deeper into what you can expect in your Toyota Probox.
Toyota Probox Engine
One of the first few features you will see on many Toyota Probox ads is the engine specs. As mentioned earlier, you can get the Probox with a 1.5L, 1.4L, or 1.3L engine. It is also available with a diesel or petrol engine with a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission.
The petrol Probox comes with the following engine variants.
1.3L 2NZ-FE I4
1.5L 1NZ-FE I4
1.5L 1NZ-FXE
Meanwhile, the diesel variant comes with a 1.4L 1ND-TV D4D I4 turbo diesel engine.
When you buy a Toyota Probox with a 1.5L engine, you will get a horsepower of 105 hp, while the 1.3L variant has a horsepower of 88 hp. Besides, the 1500cc Probox can go from 0-100 in 11.7 seconds, but the 1300cc model goes from 0-100 in 13 seconds. Another distinct feature is that the 1300cc Probox has a 2-wheel drive, while you can get the 1500cc Probox in either a 2WD or a 4-wheel drive.
The 2WD version of the Toyota Probox is ideal for light-duty commercial activities and for the everyday commute. You will like that it has excellent traction, which allows it to move smoothly on paved roads while remaining predictable on smooth roads.
The 4WD Probox is your go-to for all-weather performance. Unfortunately, it’s not built for off-roading because of its ground clearance of 6 inches and 13-inch tires. It’s better off in urban areas and a few runs around the countryside.
Is the Toyota Probox Economical?
Well, with a 50L fuel capacity and an average fuel consumption of 13 km per liter, you can expect to spend Ksh 9,957 to fill its tank, considering the current fuel prices of Ksh 199.57 per liter of petrol and Ksh 9,519 on the diesel Probox.
If you average 12 km per liter, you can travel or transport goods for 650km. Hence, if you were transporting Miraa to Nairobi from Meru, you would not need to refuel your vehicle since Meru is only 304 km from Nairobi.
Toyota Probox External Features
Looking at the Toyota Probox’s exterior, you will find that it’s quite basic. Since it’s not as hardy as other commercial vehicles, it’s easy to deface or scratch a Probox. That’s why it’s advisable not to be an aggressive driver with the Probox. The last thing you want is to lower the value of your Probox through constant repainting.
Nevertheless, you get this vehicle in vibrant colors, including white, black mica, Bordeaux mica metallic, dark blue, light green, and silver.
Toyota Probox Interior
The Probox station wagon focuses on function over form. Therefore, you won’t find any luxuries in the interior. It features a basic front and second-row cabin that can seat five people. The driver’s cabin does not have an advanced infotainment system. It comes with a CD player with front and rear speakers.
As for comfort and convenience, there’s a basic HVAC system that’s easy to understand. There are only two control panels for changing the temperature and an orange display to show you the selections.
However, you will get a heater, power steering, rear wiper, and steering adjustment. It has halogen headlamps and lacks defogging features.
Keep in mind that the Toyota Probox is made for carrying goods, so you won’t enjoy a roomy space for your legs. To put it plainly, the journey won’t be as exciting as driving in a luxury passenger car like the BMW, especially if you are over 6ft tall. Still, you can use it for short-distance rides, albeit with some comfort issues.
You will like that the seats are made of a waterproof vinyl material that includes the boot which means your vehicle will be safe from spills. Moreover, you can fold the second-row seats for more cargo space.
Toyota Probox Safety
Toyota Probox’s safety is as good as any vehicle that carries the Toyota name. It comes with standard safety features such as Anti-Lock braking system, traction control, brake assist, electronic brake-force distribution, and airbags for the driver and passenger seats.
What Are the Advantages of Owning a Toyota Probox?
The Toyota Probox is one of the vehicles that shares spare parts with other vehicles like the Toyota Corolla and Wish. As such, its spare parts are readily available. According to many mechanics, it’s okay to outfit your Probox with spark plugs, brake pads, oil filters, and oil from vehicles that share similar components with it. Your vehicle will function as normal and there’s usually no need to wait around for spare parts.
Another advantage of owning the Toyota Probox is that it comes with standard Variable Valve Timing With Intelligence (VVTi). This technology enhances engine performance and provides better fuel economy. That’s why the Probox is not considered a fuel guzzler by Kenyan motorists.
Lastly, the Toyota Probox is relatively stable on the road despite being a real workhorse. With a kerb weight of 1030 kgs to 1170 kgs, the Probox can carry up to 400 kgs and still be able to maintain a speed of 80km/h on the road. Not to mention, it has a rear leaf spring that’s positioned similarly to what you will find on a pickup. That’s why you can depend on it to always get the job done.
The Toyota Probox is a reliable vehicle that is a preferred choice for transporting decent volumes of goods. Compared to its competitors like the Succeed and Nissan Ad Van, many people prefer the Probox thanks to its spacious interior and versatility.
