The history of JAC Pick-Up.
In 2016, the 1st JAC pick-up T6 launched, follow by another new pick-Up T8 launched in 2018. The enhanced version of T8, T8 PRO launched in 2021. Limitation of pick-Up trucks in China is related to the China government on “trucks”, and this has affected the progress on pick-up trucks development and usage in China.
In 2022, policies start to change and with this encouragement, JAC launched the latest T9 pick-up in 2023 in China, and later in all LHD countries. In Australia (RHD), T9 pick-up was launched in early 2024. Currently, JAC pick-up with 3 models T6, T8 and T9, are 2nd best selling pick-up in China market behind GVW, in which are selling 4 models and more than 15 variants.
In Malaysia, we will introduce the similar pick-up with Australia, T9 pick-up ICE with 5 Star EURO NCAP. Malaysia only chose the highest specification with ADAS 2.0 and 360 camera, equivalent to the highest specification offered by America pick-up trucks. The transmission of T9 pick-up truck is fitted with “durable and reliable” “ZF” gearbox. ZF is famous for its reliability, even sport cars like Aston Martin, Chevrolet, Alfa Romeo, Dodge and BMW are ZF long time partners.
Evolvelectric Motors will also introduce the latest T9 pick-up running on Battery Electric. This T9 BEV will shock the Malaysia market and provide “NO” reason why some corporates can not meet their ESG scoring.
We are inviting all Malaysian to visit JAC pick-up showroom starting November 2024. Our main retail outlet or head office is located at Lot 8236, Jalan 222, Sect 51/A, 46100 Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Every state will have its sales and service outlets, to serve all Malaysian. The dealership’s details will be shared before November 2024.
We want you to enjoy the ride and serve your better, our slogan for the JAC pick-up “Built Equally, Spend Wisely”.
