LDV NZ launches Terron 9 ute at Fieldays

Following a recent preview, LDV NZ will unleash its Terron 9 double-cab ute to the public at Fieldays next week.

This new four-wheel drive workhorse features a 2.5L 164kW/520Nm turbodiesel and a 3.5-tonne braked towing capacity. So it’s another up-for-anything ute that LDV says works as hard as Fieldays attendees do.

The Terron 9 is larger (5500mm) than many of the market’s best-known utes and joins LDV’s smaller T60 line-up. It will form the centrepiece of LDV’s site I50 at Mystery Creek from June 11 to 14.

After a debut for the brand at Fieldays last year, 2025 promises to be even bigger. There’s also the opportunity for showgoers to meet and greet LDV’s brand ambassadors.

Queenstown-based qualified carpenter Chelsea Roper (She Builds Bro) will be making the trip north on Friday and Saturday. The Morning Shift’s podcasters will make an appearance at the LDV site on Saturday.

Professional rugby player Katelyn Vaha’akolo who, like her fellow LDV ambassadors also drives an LDV T60 ute, will also be onsite on Saturday.

LDV will have exclusive Fieldays offers for those considering a purchase during the event. For example, anyone buying an LDV vehicle there will receive a free accessory pack valued at $3000. This offer runs until June 30.

Inchcape New Zealand General Manager Kym Mellow is confident the Terron 9 will set a new benchmark for utes in New Zealand. He is looking forward to seeing the public’s reaction to it.

“The all-new LDV Terron 9 is built for power, designed for versatility, and is ready to redefine the ute experience” he said.

“Expanding our range, the Terron 9 brings toughness, intelligence, and performance to the next level. Backed by LDV’s commitment to quality, it comes with a seven-year warranty, giving you confidence on every journey.”

Also at the LDV site (#I50) there will be a range of T60 utes and LDV’s Deliver 7 van with 2.0 turbodiesel power.
