I have had an LDV T60 Trail Rider for the past 2.5 years and had similar issues with the towbar fitment, but dealer here in Aus got it sorted, it was an incorrect fitment issue. Also the Apple Car Play /Andriod is useless so I just don't use it, blue tooth works the best, i'm not a hugh music guy, just listen to the radio. I bought it as I had a budget and it was great value for money, I could buy new with 5yrs warranty v's used with wear and tear and no warranty. It looks great and has a really deep tub with lockable cover for my work needs which counted out the Mitsubshi. I need to change my ute to a wagon for 3 x tall long legged tweenage kids and a dog for family vacations towing my new bigger boat or recently built camper trailer. We have been using my wife's Skoda Kodiak for the long interestate famly trips which is an awesome vehicle but only has an 80KG down ball weight so now won't tow either of these safely. Thank you for this review it has been very handy, especially since I have been trying to find a brand that does the wheel stud pattern. I have had a decent experience with my T60 so am happy to buy a D90 for the next vehicle. For comparisons - I have been waiting for the new Jeep Grand Cherokee L 7 seat to come out this year. It has almost exactly the same 3 row passenger space but with 200mm extra length giving more luggage space behind the 3rd row. Three main issues though - the model I want isn't coming anytime soon if at all in the 7 seater, the hybrid 4xe Trail Rider. There's no diesel engine and i'm not particualrly a fan of the 3.6 Pentastar petrol, it just uninspiring not a deal breaker. Plus a model like the 'Limited' with featurres like this D90 will be easily $75K. Same with a Ford Everset Sport $74K and not as much passenger space & same 2.0 TDI engine output.
Sounds like you're doing your homework on what is going to suit your family needs while gaining more confidence in a brand that is really starting to establish itself in Australia and NZ. Had our D90 for 11 months and have had all the issues in the video addressed, we are loving owning it, no issue recommending one based on our experience.
@@aleks0001 not serious stuff but tried some wheel articulation and it manages that well, the ramp over angle is not that good, goes well in sand but that's about all I can report
@@RadRoadAdventures That's probably all i want to do with it. Light off road with some sand driving. Not really into destroying my car for the fun of it. Just want to get to some nice camping spots and do some beach runs. Thanks for letting me know.
I had the same issue with the trailer plug, it turned out that some of the wiring were incorrectly installed and so once taken back to the dealership it was corrected, also apart from the blind spot light staying on, it also disconnected the rear powered tailgate. If your still having problems get your dealership to call Waikato Ssangyoung LDV(Hamilton), Matty the service manager should be able to help.
Also your information on the windscreen sensor may shed light on an issue to do with my cruise control cutting out now and then, I'm going to use that part of the video with the service team as they recently completed a full diagnostic and sent the info to SIAC in China. I'm now hopeful my cruise issue may be resolved by recalibration of that sensor. I have the exact same model as you so fingers crossed. 👍
I got my D90 2 weeks ago and love it !. Amazing drive and features . Your vids really helped make my decision to buy with much more confidence Got a Diesel 2022 model light blue 😊
@justinaylward7470 congratulations! Love ours, had 3 years now and still impressed with all those features. I added an aftermarket android auto box to my D90, got a video on that too. That was the one aftermarket accessory I wish I had got sooner!
Hi mate, great review - and it seems like we both had the same idea with owners reviews on our channels! :) My brother in law is considering an LDV D90, so I was looking up some videos for him, and found yours. How are your impressions - mostly positive still? anything went particularly wrong with the car in the meantime? How is the connectivity for devices - apple car play and android auto? How is plastic quality and any other elements within the car - levers, latches, did anything break or come off? Sorry for barrage of questions, really appreciate any insights you could offer :)
No issues other than what's in my video and with 4 kids I have had no interior issues etc. I will put together another review soon as I've nearly had it 1 year.
I have the EVC723 and it makes a difference but there is still some lag. I don't understand why these modern vehicles need such a device but I have noticed the D90 is more responsive when coming off "auto hold" (auto handbrake) so maybe it's technology causing it because it's not turbo lag etc.
Hi Tim, I have posted a new video now I have owned our D90 for a year, check this out if you'd like. Did you end up buying a new vehicle? Regards, Shannon
Hi mate, awesome video series! I cannot stop watching them, just finished 3 of them. And I just come home from South Island. I am thinking of D90 and Rexton atm, what do you think about these two for the family use. Much appreciated.
Thanks Jackie Xu! We were looking at both these vehicles and the D90 won it for us for the fact the 3rd row and boot space was so generous. It was also well equipped, cheaper and ticked all our boxes which looking back we have no regrets with the choice made. If you do end up buying let me know!
@@RadRoadAdventures cheers, mate. Yeah, will let you know, haha, when we get it, we are planning have another month in south island next year. 😄 definitely, would like to keep watching your videos. There are some hidden gems there. Keep it up mate 👍.

Hi, very quiet, when I put my roof racks up this changed that however as standard on the continental tyres they are very quiet. The engine on idle can be heard but not while cruising
Thanks for the review, I am waiting to collect my blue diesel D90. It may not have the pedigree of some other brand but at the price point and meeting my criteria (caravan / space / decent engine) looks a good deal. Difficult to find extras, has anyone found a decent nudge bar for the D90 ? Thanks again
Loved the review. Thanks! We are looking at getting this car also. Does anyone else find a problem with Android Auto and AppleCar Play or is it just android auto? As we are a iPhone family. And the only caveats my wife has is it must have working AppleCar play and be a 7 seater.
As I understand it it has Apple car play and this works, andriod auto is not the genuine Android auto, a 3rd party program and you need ro have a mirroring app. Thanks for the feedback Jayden.
My husband has an Apple, and it connects with no issues. We use his phone in the car as I have Android and, as said in the video, Easy Connect is not easy, so I just don't bother 🤣
If I may ask how is your fuel economy I have one in china and in the dead centre of city driving I get about 10.8 on ECO mode Also I feel like the accelator is sluggish especially in 3rd gear
10.8 sounds about right in the city, sometimes I get 9.5 Open road usually 8. No sluggishness that I'm experiencing. DPF will need replacing, warranty claim underway with my dealer, I had it go into limp mode with an engine light.
@@paultabone2010 I went from a 2.2L Kia Sorento diesel. The rear end on the D90 is far more suited to towing. The 480nm and 8 speed makes light work of towing, pulling 2T up steep passes no problem and fuel economy is around 15L/100km.
The maxus d90 or the MG GLOSTER( as called in India) apparently has a sluggish in city drive with the gearbox not downshifting soon enough, any thoughts on the same? Also any remapped examples around?
It can have slow throttle response when taking off from either a crawl or a standstill. I have noticed this is not the case when autohold is enabled and in use (auto handbrake) I have also fitted a throttle controller which mitigates the issue somewhat. I personally don't notice it the same anymore, getting on the accelerator a moment sooner is easy enough.
@@roshanr9263 will look to do one after 18 months, have owned for 8 months and after getting a few minor faults, non of which are mechanical sorted its a better vehicle now than it was when I drove it off the yard.
It is a comfortable vehicle and just some minor issues, none if which are mechanical. If you like the package then go for it, SIAC motors make a lot of automotive parts for VW and others, this time they have put all this expertise into one of their own vehicles. Good luck Joseph.
@@RadRoadAdventures to be honest I was extremely surprised by the end of the video when you pointed out the many minor issues D90 has. It’s still considered brand new for this many problems to arise in my opinion! Never have I encountered such issues with any car that I owned before in its first year or 10Ks.
We had a Kia Sorento, we found it didn't handle the tongue weight too well, had plenty of power but we also wanted a bigger vehicle for our growing family.
Yes a particular T60 did have a major rust issue. LDV SIAC make a lot of vans, utes and SUV's plus all the MG's that are also increasingly popular. That story was more about shit Australia service with a dud vehicle (probably contamination in the steel) and not so much about rusting Chinese vehicles
We looked at the Pajero Sport but it was far too small in the 3rd row for our growing family. The larger Pajero was very outdated, even the 2020 model. This was a good choice for us. Thanks for watching
They are $64000 now! You would be surprised how many parts SIAC motors make for other car manufacturers and then the ZF German gear box and America rear axle etc makes it Chinese assembled as much as anything
Not finding it to lack quality as much as you may think, it's no hilux so I'm not about to go thrash it around offf road. Nothing else that's a true 7 seater represents such value as this does.
@@RadRoadAdventures I have a n80 hilux and I think it's overrated. The auto transmission is sluggish compared to a ZF transmission and the 2.8 motor is noisy and lacks power and torque
@@tuiwilson5486 Yes my mate upgraded from the old 3 litre diesel,he now regrets it, especially for the money,there is definitely a Toyota tax on these vehicles I'm sure I would be willing to pay it.
Hello again mate - couple more questions about your D90 if I may (new wave of SUV model research here...): 1 - Does it have a DCT transmission, or just a normal torque converter one, do you know? 2 - I've read up on some (apparently horrible) automatic cruise control thing that misreads the signs and "slams on the brakes", etc - and apparently can't be turned off... Have you experienced anything like that in your 1 year of ownership? Original comment from complaining person here - www.productreview.com.au/questions/453ea2e8-dcb0-4560-b3f5-de18a7da7634 Thanks a lot!
No worries. ZF 8 speed has a torque converter. All parameters around cruise can be tweeked and if anyone experiences this sort of issue recalibration and an update can fix this. My cruise works very well.
