Concealed Winch Mounting Plate – Toyota ProAce 2016-2024

De Concealed Winch Mounting Plate Toyota ProAce 2016-2024 makes it possible to mount an electric or hydraulic winch discreetly behind the front bumper on the second-generation ProAce, without visibly modifying the exterior of your commercial vehicle. For ProAce owners who want to equip their vehicle for professional or adventure use — couriers in remote areas, agricultural entrepreneurs, emergency services, camper builders, and off-road enthusiasts — this is the professional solution: all the functionality of a winch, without compromising the sleek appearance of the ProAce.

What is a concealed winch mounting plate?

A concealed winch mounting plate is a steel support structure mounted behind the original front bumper, on the vehicle's chassis beams. The winch is attached to this plate, remaining completely invisible behind the bumper — only the rope or cable protrudes through a cutout or opening behind the license plate. This allows your ProAce to retain its original appearance while remaining suitable for parking garages, professional displays, and urban environments where an external bull bar or winch bumper would be noticeable.

Toyota ProAce: commercial vehicle on Stellantis platform

The second generation Toyota ProAce was introduced in 2016 as part of a collaboration between Toyota and the then PSA Group (now part of Stellantis). The ProAce is built on the EMP2 platform and shares its bodywork and technology with the Citroën Jumpy, Peugeot Expert, Opel Vivaro (from 2019), and Fiat Scudo (from 2022).

• De length and width of the base mounting pattern of your intended winch
• De maximum clearance for the rope in relation to the recess behind the license plate
• De depth of the winch in relation to the available space behind the bumper
• De maximum towing capacity in relation to the vehicle weight (for the ProAce typically 9.000-12.000 lbs or 4.000-5.500 kg)
