Overview

edit

The JMC Yuhu pickup shares similar exterior design elements with the Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50, but it is built on Jiangling's own platform.

During the 2015 Shanghai Motor Show, Jiangling Motors showed off an off-road coupé utility concept version of the pickup with cooperation with Ford.[3]

Jiangling entered the Australian market in 2016, and the truck is the first model sold under the name JMC Vigus.[4] Jiangling left the Australian market in 2018 due to poor sales of the Vigus.[5]

JMC Baodian

edit

The updated Yuhu-based Baodian is an entry-level model of the Yuhu range and is aimed to replace the aging Baodian pickup from August 2020. The model offers a selection of rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive models with engine options of a 2.5-liter diesel turbo engine and a 1.8-liter petrol turbo engine. There are up to 16 trim levels available.[6]

In January 2023, the Yuhu-based second generation Baodian received a facelift for the 2023 model year featuring a styling update, while the powertrain remains as the same 2.5-liter diesel turbo engine and a 1.8-liter petrol turbo engines.[7]

JMC Yuhu 3 and Yuhu 5

edit

The Yuhu 3 and Yuhu 5 are variants of the JMC Yuhu positioned under the more up market Yuhu 7 pickup. The Yuhu 3 and Yuhu 5 feature slightly different front bumper designs and are priced differently. The Yuhu 3 offer a selection of rear wheel drive and four wheel drive models with engine options of a 2.5 liter diesel turbo engine and a 1.8 liter petrol turbo engine,[8] while the Yuhu 5 offer a selection of rear wheel drive and four wheel drive models with engine options of a 2.4 liter diesel turbo engine and a 2.0 liter diesel turbo engine.[9]
