The 2024 JAC T9 has made its debut in Australia as a new contender in the value ute segment.

Set to compete against the GWM Ute, LDV T60 and Ssangyong Musso, the JAC T9 will be offered in two variants: a base-spec Oasis ($42,662 before on-road costs); and a top-of-the-range Haven ($45,630)

The JAC T9 is equipped with a 125kW/410Nm 2.0-litre single-turbo four-cylinder diesel engine, paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and a part-time four-wheel-drive system. It's slated to arrive with customers in the second half of 2024.
