Sales of the updated JAC T9 pickup truck have started in Russia

In the new Urban version, the rear springs have given way to a multi-link spring suspension – this should add comfort to the car and also improve handling. In terms of its driving characteristics, as the manufacturer assures, the new frame model is not inferior to crossovers.

In the “multi-link” version, only a petrol two-liter turbo engine (224 hp and 390 Nm) will be available, assisted by a classic 8-speed automatic transmission.

The cost of the JAC T9 Urban will be 3,689,000 rubles, but at the start of sales there is a special offer that allows you to save 100,000 rubles. For reference, with springs the car costs 3,649,000.

“The car has retained its character and functionality: electronically connected all-wheel drive, familiar load capacity, practicality and versatility,” says the JAC press service.

In 2025, Russians purchased 3,500 copies of the T9, making the car the bestseller in the segment. Moreover, more than 60% of purchases were made by individuals. These are the data from the Autostat-Info agency.
