Foton Tunland hybrid ute to land in Q3 2025: Australian specs and pricing confirmed

Foton has locked in key specs and pricing for its upcoming Tunland hybrid dual-cab ute, which is set to land in Australia showrooms from the third quarter of 2025. 

The hybrid diesel dual-cab will start from $39,990 before on-road costs for the 4×2 variant, and go up to $49,990 for the top-spec V9-S 4×4. The range will include four variants:

• Tunland V7-C 4×2: $39,990
• Tunland V7-C 4×4: $42,990
• Tunland V9-L 4×4: $45,990
• Tunland V9-S 4×4: $49,990

All variants will be powered by a 2.0-litre Aucan turbo-diesel engine producing 120kW at 3600rpm and 450Nm between 1500-2400rpm, backed by 48V mild-hybrid assistance and an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission. Braked towing capacity is 3500kg, and all 4×4 models come with a rear diff lock – the top-spec V9-S adds a front locker as standard.

The wading depth is rated at 700mm, all models are listed with a ground clearance of 240mm, an approach angle of 28 degrees and a departure angle of 26 degrees. Full specs and features can be seen below!

The suspension set-up differs by grade. The V7 variants use a double wishbone front and leaf-spring rear, targeting work use and offering a payload over 1000kg. The V9 models retain the double wishbone front but upgrade to a multi-link coil-sprung rear for improved everyday ride comfort.

“It draws on Foton’s global truck-building expertise to deliver commercial-grade durability, real-world capability with SUV-like comfort – all wrapped in a value-packed offering tailored to Australian drivers,” Foton said in a statement.

Foton says the Tunland has undergone extensive local testing across sealed roads, rough tracks, steep terrain, sand and mud to ensure it’s suited to Australian conditions.

“The all-new Tunland is a fresh and capable new contender in the ute segment, offering commercial-grade space and toughness, combined with the comfort and technology modern drivers expect,” said Glen Cooper, General Manager of Foton Australia. “We’ve backed that up with tens of thousands of kilometres of local testing to help ensure it’s tuned for Australian conditions and built to deliver exactly what drivers need – whether it’s for work, play, or everything in between. 

“We see real potential for the Tunland to shake up the category by delivering greater versatility, space, and refinement in a truly value-packed offering,” Cooper said.

All models will be covered by a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty. Dealer coverage has been confirmed across NSW, Victoria, Queensland, SA, WA and the ACT, with more locations expected ahead of launch.

Final specifications and equipment lists will be released closer to the Q3 2025 arrival.
