JAC Motors Pakistan has launched the new JAC T9 Frison 2X, a two-wheel-drive (2WD) version of its well-received T9 Hunter pickup truck, bringing a more affordable and urban-friendly option for local buyers.
This latest addition broadens the T9 lineup, maintaining the same bold design and advanced features that made the 4×4 model popular, but at a lower price point.
The T9 Frison 2X is built to appeal to city drivers who want the toughness of a pickup with improved practicality and fuel efficiency.
Design and Purpose
The JAC T9 Frison 2X mirrors the premium look, comfort, and technology of the T9 Hunter but replaces the 4×4 drivetrain with a rear-wheel drive (4×2) setup.
This makes it ideal for daily commutes and highway drives rather than rugged off-road use.
By targeting urban users and professionals, JAC aims to offer a more cost-effective option that still provides the solid performance and sophistication the T9 series is known for.
Price and Booking Details
The JAC T9 Frison 2X is priced at Rs 8,775,000 (ex-factory), making it a more budget-friendly alternative to the 4×4 variant while retaining nearly all of its premium features.
Bookings are open across Ghandhara dealerships in Pakistan with a booking amount of Rs 2.3 million.
Distinctive Features
While it shares most design elements with the T9 Hunter, the Frison 2X adds a few refined touches.
The front grille has been redesigned to give it a sleeker urban look, and the 18-inch dual-spoke alloy wheels enhance its sporty, modern appeal.
The key mechanical difference is the rear-wheel drive system, which delivers smoother on-road performance and better fuel efficiency for everyday users.
Engine and Performance
Powering the pickup is the same 2.0-liter turbo diesel engine found in the T9 Hunter, generating 168 horsepower and 410 Nm of torque, paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
This setup ensures reliable performance on city roads and highways, combining strength with improved economy.
Interior and Safety
Inside, the Frison 2X offers the same premium cabin experience, featuring leather seats, a 10.4-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and automatic climate control.
Safety features include six airbags, ABS, EBD, ESC, hill-hold assist, and a 360° camera, ensuring peace of mind for drivers and passengers alike.
With a 1,000 kg payload capacity, the JAC T9 Frison 2X blends durability, comfort, and affordability — giving Pakistani consumers a well-equipped pickup that perfectly balances work and lifestyle needs.
