Verdict

These diesel 4WD pickups are close in basic layout, with five seats, 80-litre tanks and five-year/100,000-km warranties. The Maxus Terron 9 brings 219 hp and 520 Nm against the Peugeot Landtrek’s 150 hp and 350 Nm, plus eight gears rather than six. It also gets autonomous braking and adaptive cruise control. The Peugeot counters with RM404 annual road tax versus RM838, a 375-kg lower kerb weight and dual-zone air-conditioning. For Malaysian buyers, the Terron 9 is the stronger work-and-tow specification; the Landtrek is the more rational spend.

Terron 9

Pick the Maxus Terron 9 if you want 219 hp, 520 Nm, an eight-speed automatic and autonomous braking for heavier-duty use.

Landtrek

Pick the Peugeot Landtrek if lower purchase and road-tax costs, a lighter 2,095-kg kerb weight and dual-zone climate control matter more than outright output.
