A common mid-size tradie and courier van on the NZ used market, financed mostly through business structures.
Last reviewed: 24 April 2026
The Hyundai iLoad was sold in New Zealand from 2008 through to 2021 as a mid-size panel van aimed squarely at the tradie, courier, and small-fleet segment. Although Hyundai NZ replaced it with the Staria Load in 2022, the iLoad still dominates the used commercial-van market at sub-$40,000 price points because production ran for over a decade and the van gained a reputation for straightforward servicing through the Hyundai dealer network. Cross-shoppers commonly land on the Toyota Hiace, Ford Transit Custom, Mercedes-Benz Vito, Volkswagen Transporter, and LDV G10 at similar price points. Loan files sit firmly in the commercial-finance lane, where chattel mortgage and finance lease products dominate the conversation and personal consumer loans are the exception.

Financing notes
At $28,000 across a four-year term at 9% indicative, the weekly repayment sits at roughly $159 or about $687 a month. Under a chattel mortgage, the weekly is the same, but GST on the purchase price (around $3,650 on a $28,000 ex-GST price) is typically claimable in the next GST return where the business is GST-registered, and finance interest is generally deductible in proportion to business use, both subject to the accountant's confirmation. Three to five-year terms are widely observed on iLoad finance, with shorter terms more common on older examples.
Model-specific questions
Chattel mortgage is the most common structure on iLoads bought by sole traders and small companies, because the van sits on the business balance sheet and GST on the purchase is typically claimable in the next GST return, subject to the accountant's confirmation. Finance leases are widely observed on fleets of three or more vans where balance-sheet treatment matters. Personal consumer loans on iLoads are uncommon because the buyer profile is almost always business.
GST is typically claimable on the purchase of an iLoad where the business is GST-registered, the van is used primarily for taxable business activity, and the seller is also GST-registered (or the buyer is using the second-hand-goods input-tax rules), subject to the accountant's confirmation. On a $28,000 ex-GST iLoad, that represents around $4,200 in input tax, which is usually recovered in the next GST return.
On a $28,000 used TQ iLoad at 9% indicative over four years with no deposit, the weekly repayment sits at roughly $159. A $32,000 late-model 2020 iLoad on the same settings lands at around $182 a week. A three-year term on the same $28,000 van lifts the weekly to $227 but cuts total interest by roughly half. These figures are illustrative only; actual rates are set by the lender.
All three finance through similar commercial-loan products. Hiace commonly carries the tightest indicative rate because NZ resale data is deepest and the fleet register shows the largest volume. Transit Custom sits in a similar band. iLoad typically prices a touch wider because the model is now discontinued and residual value underwriting is less certain, particularly on examples over eight years old.
Indicative rates on late-model iLoads (2018 onward) sit broadly in line with current mainstream vans in our experience, because the van is still common on NZ roads and parts supply through Hyundai dealers is ongoing. Earlier iLoads (pre-2015) commonly attract a conservative rate and a shorter cap on term because residual-value underwriting is thinner on older commercial vans generally.
Zero-deposit chattel-mortgage structures are offered on iLoads to GST-registered buyers because the input-tax claim effectively acts as a post-purchase deposit via the first GST return. A 10 to 20% cash deposit further reduces the loan amount and typically improves the indicative rate band, particularly on older iLoads where lender residual-value risk is higher. Fleet operators commonly negotiate deposit as part of supply.
Yes, on broadly the same terms as a dealer purchase. A broker pre-approval is commonly sourced first. A Carjam report verifies VIN, odometer, and any secured interest on the PPSR; the seller must clear any listed security at settlement. A pre-purchase mechanical inspection at $200 to $350 is widely regarded as worth the cost on any iLoad over seven years old because commercial-van wear is harder to see than passenger-car wear.
Yes, though the GST and deductibility treatment changes. Where the van is used part-business and part-private, the deductible finance interest and claimable GST are typically apportioned to the business-use percentage, subject to the accountant's confirmation. Most lenders still finance the van under a chattel mortgage regardless of mixed use; the structure choice is driven more by the business status of the borrower than the vehicle's use split.

Disclaimer
A car loan is a commitment that runs for years, and repayments come out of the same pay cheque as everything else. Before committing, it is worth modelling the weekly and monthly cost against the household budget, which is what this site is built to help with. Borrowing at a level that stays comfortable on a bad week, not a good one, is widely regarded as the safer frame.
Carfinance.org.nz earns a commission from a partner brand when a visitor applies through this site and their application is approved. That commission is paid by the partner, not the applicant, and it does not influence the rate the lender offers. We refer every visitor to the same partner because they compare multiple New Zealand lenders on the applicant's behalf, so the recommendation is not driven by a sponsored deal. Every figure shown on this site is a modelled estimate based on the inputs entered; the actual rate, fees, and repayments are set by the lender after assessing the applicant's circumstances and own credit decision. Carfinance.org.nz is a calculator and information tool. We are not a lender, not a broker, and not a registered financial adviser. Any decision about whether a specific loan suits a specific situation is best made after talking with the lender, and for amounts that materially affect the household, with a registered financial adviser.
