One model ahead of the widespread replacement cycle is the Brummie newcomer. still less than a year old. After a slow start, the Maxus is making inroads into both retail and fleet markets, although its relatively bland styling means the gains are going unnoticed by the majority of van users. Some significant fleet deals will certainly help the Maxus to achieve critical mass. though.
Our first two Maxus road tests revealed a well-designed and capable van based on proven mechanical components. including an impressive common-rail engine from DaimlerChrysler subsidiary VM. There are initially two power ratings, with good body and GVW options.
With consistent quality, there's no reason why the Maxus shouldn't go on to be the success that LOV's efforts deserve.
