Hyundai H350: van and minibus, engine and versions
The Hyundai H350 is a large van and passenger minibus, produced from 2014 to 2021. We look at the versions, engine, length and roof options, and what to check when buying a used H350.
H350 in brief
The H350 is Hyundai's large commercial vehicle, introduced in Europe in 2014 as a rival to the Ford Transit, Mercedes Sprinter and other large vans. It's offered as a van, passenger minibus and cab chassis.
It features rear-wheel drive, a spacious cargo area and a wide range of body options. Mostly used in delivery, rental and passenger transport businesses.
Versions and bodies
The H350 comes in several lengths and roof heights. The van is for cargo, the minibus for passengers (up to 15 seats, depending on configuration), and the cab chassis for special bodies.
The passenger version is often used as a minibus for tourism, commuting or passenger transport.
Engine and gearbox
The most common engine is the 2.5-litre CRDi diesel, offered in several power outputs (roughly from 130 to 150 hp). The gearbox is manual.
Thanks to its rear-wheel drive, the H350 is better suited to heavier loads than front-wheel-drive vans, although the engine isn't the most economical.
What to check when buying a used H350
Body: door sills, scratches, wheel arches and cargo area floor. Commercial vehicles are often heavily used.
Check the diesel engine for injectors, turbo, DPF and EGR condition, and oil leaks. The engine should start without prolonged cranking and shouldn't smoke.
In the passenger version, check the seat mounts and safety belts. Inspect the ride based on service records.
