Verdict

The diesel T9 is a lower-cost route into an AWD automatic pick-up than the stated RM199,888 same-class rival, with an RM80,000 gap. Its basic hardware is clear: a 168 hp diesel engine, AWD and five seats. But there is no basis here to judge its ride comfort, cabin quality, payload or fuel consumption. The EV and incoming PHEV give the T9 family broader powertrain coverage.
