The JAC T9 2.0L TGDI PHEV is set to make its mark in South Africa soon. If you thought bakkies were just for hauling, think again. This hybrid powerhouse will bring serious performance and green energy to the local market in the second quarter of 2025.
Here’s why this plug-in hybrid (PHEV) is about to change the game.
Power That Won’t Quit
The T9 PHEV bridges the gap between the traditional bakkie and the growing demand for greener, more efficient vehicles. With a 2.0L turbo-petrol engine and two electric motors, it delivers 290kW and 670Nm of torque, making it a powerhouse in the hybrid market.
This impressive performance is perfect for tackling both city streets and offroad adventures. Even when the battery runs out, the turbo-petrol engine seamlessly takes over, ensuring you don’t lose power. This hybrid approach allows the flexibility to keep driving with full performance, whether relying on the electric motor or the petrol engine.
Charge Up And Go
This isn’t just a bakkie – it’s a tech marvel. The T9 features a 31.2kWh lithium-iron-phosphate battery that charges in just one hour and 25 minutes on a DC fast charger!
Not in a rush? No problem. Plug it in at home, and you’ll be ready to roll in just 4.5 hours. It’s a super convenient choice if you have a lifestyle that demands performance and efficiency.
Tech To Keep You Safe

You can trust that this vehicle will have your back on any terrain.
Built For The Tough Stuff
Built for the adventurer, the T9 PHEV doesn’t just look good – it’s ready for anything.

Whether you’re hauling a caravan, horsebox, or some serious off-road gear, the T9 is built to take it all in stride.
The Future Of Bakkies Is Here, And It’s Electric.
For an EV, the T9 PHEV hits a sweet spot for those who want the eco-conscious benefits of an electric vehicle without the limitations of a full EV. It’s a great choice for people who need a powerful, capable, and versatile vehicle that won’t leave them stranded on long drives without a charging station.
The hybrid system bridges the gap between the gas-guzzler bakkies of old and the future of fully electric driving, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of customers.
