What SA Motoring Experts Say About The New Foton
“If you thought the Tunland SC was well equipped, the Double Cab has something to say about that. Even the entry-level TL has more features than you could shake a stick at, and the Limited is sure to leave no stone unturned. The engine and transmission pairing here is great in that there’s a sense of urgency, but it doesn’t feel like the powertrain lags in all its range. The ZF transmission is a smooth operator.”
AutoTrader
“The G7 bakkie range competes in one of SA’s most popular market segments with prices that undercut not only legacy brands such as Toyota and Ford but also Chinese rivals LDV, JAC and GWM.”
Business Live
“There’s no denying the Tunland is a decent workhorse, and indeed it is the best Chinese-built vehicle this tester has driven. It drives with more competence than some of the established players, and its engine is strong.”
Drive
“The Foton Tunland G7 will not only pose a serious threat to other Chinese-built bakkies, but can pry away market share from the likes of the Toyota Hilux, Ford Ranger and Isuzu D-Max.”
