CarTell take

We haven't driven the Cannon yet. On paper, cross-shop the Cannon Alpha PHEV against the BYD Shark 6 PHEV. The Hi4-T system delivers 300 kW combined and matches the Shark 6 on braked tow.

Why consider it

  • $40,490 drive-away for the Premium 4x4 dual cab undercuts HiLux SR5 and Ranger XLT by more than $20,000 while matching them on tow rating, plus 7 years of warranty and the Hi4-T PHEV flagship at $54,990.

What to know

  • 2.4L diesel power trails the V6 Ranger and Amarok, and aftermarket accessory range still trails the Japanese establishment.

Who it suits

Tradies and tow-rig owners chasing 3,500 kg braked tow on a sub-$45,000 entry price, with a 7-year warranty no Japanese rival matches.
