Overview
The first-generation JAC T9 is a five-seat diesel pickup for buyers who want AWD and an automatic gearbox in one straightforward work-and-leisure package. Launched in 2025, the Malaysian line-up starts with the Grand ES at RM119,888, pairing 168 hp with diesel power and a five-seat cabin.
T9 in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the T9 range grows beyond the diesel Grand ES with EV and PHEV developments. The T9 EV has a stated 340 km range, while the T9 PHEV is priced at an estimated RM162,000 ahead of its Malaysian launch. The plug-in hybrid brings ADAS and 15 kW vehicle-to-load capability, and JAC plans local CKD assembly for diesel, EV and PHEV T9 versions via FT Assembly.
Verdict
The T9’s appeal is simple: diesel power, AWD and an automatic gearbox in a single five-seat variant. Its RM119,888 price is higher than the entry Nissan Navara, JMC Vigus Pro, Mitsubishi Triton and Ford Ranger, but lower than the Peugeot Landtrek and Foton Tunland. Buyers need to weigh that position against the Grand ES’s fixed 168 hp diesel specification and the approaching EV and PHEV alternatives.
