Previously, there were no pickups in the model line of Deepal, but now it appeared, and not in China, but in Thailand – the Hunter K50 model was presented there. It may seem familiar to the Russians because this is one of the versions of the Changan Hunter Plus, represented in our market. But the Hunter K50 has a hybrid power plant, and its composition has a diesel engine. In Thailand, the novelty was estimated at 1,099,000 baht, which is equivalent to 2.7 million rubles.

Outwardly, the Hunter K50 hybrid differs from the Hunter Plus not only by logos, but also with a new radiator grill – it is frameless, and the pattern is made up of UNI rectangles diverging from the center. The salon is the same as that of a gasoline pickup, there are no differences in profile.
