New Pickup Truck From JAC Motors Expected to Launch Next Month With Improvements for the Brazilian Market
Recently, JAC Motors was spotted in São Paulo testing its latest pickup, the JAC Hunter, without camouflage. This event indicates that the launch of the pickup is near and reveals the final look of the model, which will soon be marketed in Brazil. The pickup is being tested with features that align it with the model sold in other markets, such as the Australian one, but with some adjustments for the Brazilian market, according to the website Auto Ranking.
Design and Specifications
The JAC Hunter stands out for its robust and modern appearance. The pickup is equipped with bi-LED headlights, which include automatic lighting, automatic high beams and cornering assistance. Additionally, it features front and rear fog lights, and LED taillights, ensuring efficient lighting and a contemporary design. A notable detail is that, for the Brazilian market, the JAC logo on the front grille will be black instead of chrome, giving it a more understated and sporty look.
Regarding the engine, the Hunter has a diesel engine that generates 170 hp and 410 Nm of torque in the Australian market. However, for Brazil, JAC Motors is working to increase the power to around 190 hp, which promises to improve the pickup’s performance in the national territory.

Versions and Interior
The Australian model of the Hunter T9 is available in two versions: Oasis and Haven. While JAC has not yet confirmed whether Brazil will receive both versions, it is reasonable to assume that the Brazilian market may also have these options, considering the diversity of versions offered by other midsize pickups.
The interior of the JAC Hunter is equally impressive. The pickup comes equipped with a 10.4-inch display and a 7-inch digital instrument panel. The front seats are upholstered in leather with premium stitching, and in the Haven version, they include heating and electrical adjustment of six positions for the driver and electrical adjustment for the front passenger.
Dimensions and Safety Features
With 5.33 meters in length, 1.96 meters in width, and 1.92 meters in height, the JAC Hunter T9 offers generous space. The wheelbase of 3.10 meters contributes to a spacious and comfortable cabin.
The JAC Motors pickup is equipped with a variety of safety features, such as automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control (ACC), seven airbags, electronic parking brake, and blind-spot alert. These items aim to provide a high level of protection for the occupants and assist in safe driving.
Expectations for the Launch of the JAC Hunter
With the sighting of the model without camouflage and the information revealed about its specifications and equipment, the launch of the JAC Hunter in Brazil seems to be quite close. The pickup promises to be an attractive option for those seeking a robust vehicle, well-equipped and with good performance, both in terms of power and safety.
The Brazilian market, known for its diversity and demands, will certainly welcome the Hunter with great anticipation. JAC Motors, by offering a model that combines a modern design with advanced technologies and a powerful engine, aims to capture a significant share of the midsize pickup segment in the country.
