Hunting utes with a genuine 1,000 kg payload? In Australia, work-focused trims of the Toyota HiLux, Ford Ranger, Isuzu D‑MAX, Mazda BT‑50, Nissan Navara and Mitsubishi Triton commonly hit or clear the one‑tonne mark, especially 4x2 models and cab‑chassis or tray-back variants.
Some 4x4 dual-cabs also make the cut, but plush grades with big wheels, bar work, or canopies can nibble payload below 1,000 kg.
Always check the plate: payload = GVM minus kerb weight, and that includes passengers, fuel and accessories—yes, even the dog and the esky.
For a specific trim, verify the exact number with the manufacturer; utes love fine print almost as much as they love mud. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
