Meet the JAC T9, no, it’s not the next version of the Terminator but it’s a truck that’s just as cool. Known worldwide as the JAC Hunter, the T9 is one of JAC’s pickup truck offerings for the Philippine market, sitting alongside the T8 Pro.
Like its sibling, the T9 is powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder diesel engine that produces 137 hp and 350 Nm of torque. This engine is exclusively paired with a six-speed manual transmission in its single 2.0 CTI variant.
The T9 sports slightly larger dimensions than the T8 Pro, measuring 5,330 mm long, 1,965 mm wide, and 1,920 mm tall with a wheelbase spanning 3,110 mm long.
JAC introduced the T9 pickup alongside the T8 Pro and the rest of JAC’s refreshed lineup at the 2024 Manila International Auto Show. JAC offered the T9 with a price tag of P1,530,000. The T9 is available in the following colors: White, Silver, Black, Grey, Blue, Red, and Star Grey.
The JAC T9 is constructed on a ladder-frame truck chassis and is powered by a 2.0-liter turbodiesel engine paired with a six-speed manual transmission. This engine produces 137 hp and 350 Nm of torque, delivering power to the rear wheels.
Braking is handled by disc brakes at both the front and rear. The T9 features a double wishbone independent suspension at the front, while the rear utilizes a non-independent multi-link leaf spring suspension for enhanced carrying capacity.

Alloy wheels and side steps improve functionality while contributing to the vehicle's overall rugged look. At the rear, stylish LED taillights and a sturdy tailgate complete its muscular and capable appearance.
