First impressions: honest looks with a practical wink

The Toyota Proace City wears its purpose on its sleeve: upright, boxy proportions and a confident face that reads as businesslike rather than flashy. Styling is conservative but modern enough to avoid the van stereotype, with L1 and L2 lengths available so the silhouette can be compact or stretched depending on need. The Electric model adds a smoother front treatment and quieter presence, while the overall package aims squarely at buyers after function over fashion.

Cockpit and controls: sensible, durable, and thoughtfully laid out

Inside the Proace City the focus is on usability with durable plastics, intuitive switchgear and plenty of cubby space for workaday life; finishes are competent rather than premium. Seat comfort is tuned for long days on the job and the Verso variants offer flexible layouts for either five or seven passengers, so the interior can be family-friendly as well as work-ready. Infotainment screens and connectivity are straightforward, prioritising ease of use over gimmicks.

Load-lugging and family chores: space that actually works

The Proace City is available in a short L1 and a longer L2, with luggage capacity stretching to a maximum of around 2,126–2,693 litres when seats are folded, and handy trunk volumes in everyday layout of roughly 641–912 litres depending on configuration. Sliding side doors and a low load floor make loading bulky items or prams painless, and payload figures around the 700–870 kg mark mean tradespeople can carry tools and materials without drama. For families the optional seven-seat Verso keeps cabin flexibility high while still leaving usable luggage space for school runs or weekend trips.

On the road: calm commuter, competent carrier

Driving manners are polite rather than sporty — suspension is tuned for comfort and composure, soaking up potholes and kerbs while the light, predictable steering aids manoeuvres in tight streets. Performance ranges from the 1.2‑litre turbo petrol with about 110 hp to diesel options around 102–130 hp, and an electric variant delivering 136 hp; 0–100 km/h times sit in the mid-teens for most combustion models and around the low‑teens for the peppier diesels and EV, which is fine for urban and motorway cruising. The result is a vehicle that feels safe and stable when loaded, with braking and chassis tuning aimed at reliability over thrills.

Running costs and electric possibility: pick what fits your route

Fuel economy is competitive for the class: petrol consumption around 6.3 L/100 km and diesel versions roughly 5.3–5.5 L/100 km, which translates to reasonable day-to-day fuel bills for mixed urban and motorway use. The electric Proace City uses about 18.1 kWh/100 km and the 50 kWh battery gives a WLTP range of roughly 343 km, making it a credible choice for urban fleets and commuters who can recharge overnight. Choice between petrol, diesel or electric should be driven by mileage profile — urban users and short-hop fleets benefit most from the EV, while high-mileage operators may prefer the diesel’s efficiency and range.

Safety tech and infotainment: modern basics well executed

The Proace City comes with a sensible suite of driver aids aimed at reducing everyday stress: autonomous emergency braking, lane assistance and adaptive cruise features are commonly available or standard depending on trim level, helping in traffic and on long runs. Infotainment systems provide smartphone mirroring and clear menus, and practical extras like rear parking sensors and a reversing camera make city parking less of a headache. Overall the technology leans to the functional side — the features buyers actually use, rather than headline-grabbing toys.

Who should buy it: the pragmatic buyer’s choice

The Proace City suits small business owners, urban delivery fleets and families that need van-like practicality without the bulk of a full-size transporter; it’s also a sensible choice for mixed-use buyers who value low running costs and flexibility. With petrol, diesel and a 50 kWh electric option alongside L1/L2 and van-versus-Verso layouts, it delivers a configuration for most needs without overcomplication. For buyers seeking a no-nonsense, reliable workhorse that doubles as an everyday people‑carrier, the Proace City is a safe, practical pick.
