Verdict
The Maxus Terron 9 costs RM145,888 to the Peugeot Landtrek’s RM120,072, but the RM25,816 gap brings 219 hp and 520 Nm against 150 hp and 350 Nm, plus an eight-speed ZF automatic rather than six speeds. Its 850 kg payload and 3,500 kg braked towing rating give Malaysian work users clear numbers to buy into. The Landtrek is 375 kg lighter, has eight airbags to the Terron 9’s seven, and halves annual road tax to RM404. Choose power and active safety, or save money and accept less muscle.
Pick the Maxus Terron 9 if you need its 850 kg payload, 3,500 kg braked towing rating, 520 Nm torque and autonomous braking system.
Pick the Peugeot Landtrek if a RM25,816 lower purchase price, RM404 annual road tax and eight airbags matter more than outright performance.
