Foton Tunland V7 4x4 First Drive Impressions! [Car Feature]

[@rudys1209]

This car has good specs and the technology collaboration is superb. Nobody knows that Cummins engine is being used for diesel generators where the engine continously running for days without stopping. They also produce these engines for commercial trucks so the reliability is good plus the fact that Foton has an assembly plant in Clark, Pampanga.

[@beltnergon]

Probably my next UTE is the V9. With the massive size of the truck that below 2M, absolutely it is worth the price.

[@jb_volvo4071]

less than 2m full size pickup in PH history market

[@OBY1PAY]

We have the V7 and it's all good super comfy and got plenty of power too. You can set also the driving mode on the 14.6 inch monitor.

[@johnpaul1701]

nope, it's just big on the outside but not as spacious as the real full-sized ones.

[@gpaje]

For the price, I can't really make fun of this trucks lack of power. Yes it has less power than most mid-size trucks, but it's sheer presence and real estate could make up for it. At PH driving speeds, it's probably just fine. For less than 2 million, you can't have everything, but what it has is probably enough.

[@OBY1PAY]

Very true those who bash I am sure wala namang maraming vehicles yan. Those who have plenty of vehicles would welcome them because all cars are unique.

If this will serve its purpose for more that 5-10 years without an issue then why not? Im not into resale value. Nasa kamay ng gumagamit ang reliability ng isang bagay (e.g sasakyan) tamang sunod lang ng scheduled PMS tatagal to lalo na if mahilig sa sasakyan ang may-ari.

[@OBY1PAY]

Agree

[@restitutobalagbaganIII]

Ang problema dian kapag sinetup mo na para sa offroad, sobrang bigat na at baka mahirapan na ung makina. Lalagyan mo ng 305s, steelbumper at winch, tapos kung nagooverland ka lalagyan mo pa ng rooftop tent at ibang mga gamit. Lalabas ang pagka-underpowered ng makina nun. Alam ko kasi may pickup truck ako na inoutfit namin for offroading/overlanding. Pag dala ko lahat ng gamit ko, mabigat ang pakiramdam, kahit 200+ ang horsepower at 500+ ang torque ko. Kaya naman kung sa kaya, pero nagsisimula na akong mabitin sa power. Paano pa kaya dito sa mas malaki ang base na kaha at mas mahina ang makina?

[@OBY1PAY]

Well it's up to the owner and not to someone else.

[@restitutobalagbaganIII]

@@OBY1PAY if you are selling a vehicle and marketing it for offroad/overlanding use, it's pretty much understood that, at a minimum, buyers would at least need to change the tires. It's up to the owner, but nobody who will buy this to use in any semi-serious offroad or overlanding capacity will keep this stock. And that's when the underpowered nature of the engine will show.

[@OBY1PAY]

Who said underpower yung makina? What you owned it. Try it 1st before you judge it put it into Sports mode and see if Toyota Hilux can keep up with it. I have tried it and sure it got power to boast. Eat my dust.

[@restitutobalagbaganIII]

@@OBY1PAY Have you tried going off road? Do you have experience with trails? Ahente ka ba ng Foton? That company is selling this as a 4x4 pickup, so I'm assuming para dun ang sasakyan na to, hindi sa highway. And kahit sa highway lang, Foton mismo nagsabi na 150kph ang max speed nito. Ikaw ang kakain sa alikabok ng ibang pickup/SUV na nasa 180-200+ ang top speed. Pero I've seen crossovers with 300nm of torque do well in light offroading. So once people start setting up and actually go offroad with this car, maybe I'll be proven wrong. Ang problema is walang gustong bumili sa mga enthusiast groups na miyembro ako since nakukulangan nga sila sa power at unproven pa ang durability. Pero malay mo may mga willing magsayang ng 2m para lang itry, then we can put it through its paces. Pero until then, buyer beware.

[@MrRGM10]

Wth underpower eh noong araw ilan horsepower lng mga SuV.. Give me a break! Plus very few go hardcore offroad so your point is nonsense for the majority

[@johnpaul1701]

i believe you know that it's really not as big and as spacious as the common full-size trucks. it's like a midsize truck with body kits to make it look big outside

[@gpaje]

@@ReygansRides Looks and size of a full size but the performance of a mid-size in terms of hp & torque. It has less than half the power of the RAM Rebel, but then again, it's less than half the cost. The cheapest full size truck in the PH right now is $5 million pesos, actually $5.7 million with required tax. So at less than 2 million, this could make sense for a lot more buyers besides VIPs and Senators, the current buyers of full size trucks and SUVs.

[@inihawfestival7677]
