Verdict
At RM140,418, the BT-50 costs RM20,346 more, but its 3.0-litre diesel produces 188 hp and 450 Nm against the Landtrek’s 150 hp and 350 Nm. That is the meaningful mechanical divide for a Malaysian pickup buyer. Mazda also gets Smart City Brake Support, collision warning and adaptive cruise control, while Peugeot counters with a 360-degree camera, power adjustment for both front seats and a longer 3,180 mm wheelbase. The Landtrek is larger but 80 kg heavier; both use AWD, six-speed automatics and 18-inch tyres.
Pick the Mazda BT-50 if you want the stronger 188 hp/450 Nm diesel and active safety including autonomous braking and adaptive cruise control.
Pick the Peugeot Landtrek if you want to spend less for a larger pickup with a 360-degree camera and power-adjustable front seats.
