Can I use a Toyota RAV4 as a commercial SUV?

Can I change a Toyota RAV4 from a private SUV to a commercial? And , if I can do, do I have to remove the back seats or can just leave them flat? I am self-employed and registered etc in Ireland. My current van is a commercial.

Hi Lynsey,

The only way to do it would be to permanently remove the rear seats and seatbelts and create a bulkhead between the front two seats and the cargo area. It will also require a conversion declaration.
