JAC T9 →
The T9 is JAC's flagship double cab, launched in 2023 with a 2.0 CTi turbodiesel and a 5-year/200,000km warranty. It undercuts the Hilux and Ranger by a wide margin while offering near-premium cabin spec. The Hunter flagship added a more off-road focused option in 2026.

Peugeot Landtrek →
Peugeot's one-ton bakkie launched locally in late 2021 with a 1.6 turbo petrol double cab, then expanded in 2024 with 1.9 diesel and single cab workhorse models from R396,900. Spec for the money is generous. An unfamiliar badge in bakkie country means resale trails the Hilux and Ranger by a wide margin.
