FOTON Tunland V7 C 2WD Ute driven for 2026.

Is the FOTON Tunland V7 a good work Ute

Tunland V7 – Work Utes are a segment that is essential but sometimes doesn’t get the amount of press coverage that it deserves.

FOTON Tunland V7 C 4X2 front quarter 1 An example of this is a Ute I drove recently the FOTON Tunland V7 2WD. This is a dual cab Ute with a tub.

The Tunland is a new entrant to the market. It sits between the normal sized Utes like a HiLux or Navara and the large American pickup trucks.

It does however have the Pickup truck feel about it in design. I like the big bold grill with vertically stacked LED headlights. They provide excellent illumination by the way.

Interior space and ambience is SUV like. Normal Ute buyers will be surprised by just how much room there is. Front seats are synthetic leather trim and provide a good balance of comfort and support.

The tub is large at 1577mm long and 1650 mm wide. Between the wheel arches there is 1240mm, enough to fit a pallet.

Tub depth is 530mm which is both good and bad. It allows for huge capacity but causes some access issues from the side.

Payload is a handy 1116 kg.

Power comes from a 2.0 L 48V mild hybrid diesel engine. There is 120kW of power and 450Nm of torque from 1500rpm available. This droves the rear wheels through a ZF 8 Sp AT.

Let’s look at the price. At just under $40,000 plus the usual costs its stunning value for money.
