Foton rolls out new Tunland V‑Series trucks for South Africa
Posted 19 Nov 2025 – by Cale Nuttall
Foton South Africa has just beefed up its local pickup‑truck range with the brand‑new Tunland V‑Series. The newest member, the Tunland V9, steps in as the line‑up’s flag‑ship double‑cab model.
A fresh look on the road
The V9 looks sharp from every angle. A front‑view shot shows its robust grille and bold headlamps, while the side profile gives a clear view of the spacious double‑cab and the muscular stance that the V‑Series is known for. Both images are supplied by Foton and capture the truck’s strong presence.
The flagship V9 and its sibling
Above the already‑available V7, the V9 offers the highest level of comfort and capability in Foton’s South African bakkie line‑up. While the V7 is the standard‑dealt model, the V9 takes it a step further with a larger cabin, extra power and upgraded features – making it the go‑to pick for those who need more space without leaving Turkish‑style engineering behind.
Prices
Pricing details for the new V9 are available on the dealership site. (See the original article for the full figures.)
What Foton brings
As a Chinese automaker with a growing footprint in South Africa, Foton has been expanding its portfolio to match local demand for heavy‑duty pickups. The launch of the Tunland V‑Series shows the brand’s commitment to providing powerful, practical trucks that can handle both work and everyday commutes.
