What is Toyota HiAce height?
Short answer: The height of a Toyota HiAce depends on the roof configuration and market. Standard-roof models are typically around 2.0 meters tall, while high-roof and super-high-roof versions rise well above 2.4 meters. For the exact figure on a specific model year and market, consult the official Toyota specifications.
In more detail: The HiAce has been offered in multiple generations and regional variants, with roof options designed for cargo, passenger, and mixed-use configurations. Height varies by roof type, wheelbase, and whether accessories are fitted. The following sections explain the main factors, provide typical ranges, and show how to verify the precise height for a particular vehicle as of the latest models.
What affects the overall height
Several factors determine the overall height of a HiAce. Understanding these helps interpret the numbers you see in listings and ensures the vehicle fits in garages, car parks, or loading bays.
- Roof configuration (Standard, High, or Super High).
- Wheelbase and generation, which can shift the body’s profile slightly.
- Installed equipment such as roof rails, air conditioning units, or antennas.
- Optional exterior additions like bull bars or roof spoilers that can alter the height profile.
In practice, the combination of roof type and equipment is the main determinant of the vehicle’s height. Always check the official data sheet for your exact model year and market.
Typical height ranges by roof type
Here are the approximate overall heights you can expect for common HiAce configurations. These numbers are for guidance and can vary by generation, wheelbase, and aftermarket equipment.
- Standard Roof: about 1,980–2,020 mm (1.98–2.02 m)
- High Roof: about 2,240–2,460 mm (2.24–2.46 m)
- Super High Roof: about 2,700–2,800 mm (2.70–2.80 m)
Note: Exact figures depend on the vehicle’s year, market, and whether roof-mounted accessories or aftermarket modifications are present. Always refer to the official spec sheet for your exact model.
How to verify the exact height for your HiAce
To confirm the precise height of the HiAce you own or plan to buy, use these steps:
- Check the vehicle’s official spec sheet or brochure for your specific market and year, which lists "overall height" or "height with roof."
- Read the owner's manual or Toyota’s official website for the exact configuration (standard, high, or super high roof).
- Ask the dealer to provide the exact measurement and, if needed, measure the vehicle yourself from the ground to the topmost point with a tape measure during a physical inspection.
- Account for accessories that may alter height, such as roof racks, snorkels, or antennas.
Having the exact height is especially important for garage clearance and parking structures. If you’re shopping, verify the specific unit’s height rather than relying on generic estimates.
Summary
The Toyota HiAce does not have a single height figure. Height varies by roof type (Standard, High, or Super High), generation, market, and installed equipment. Standard roofs run around two meters tall, while high and super-high roofs push the height well beyond two meters, into roughly the mid-to-upper 2-meter range. For precise figures, consult the official specifications for your country, year, and model, and account for any accessories that may affect height.
