Which variant to buy

Most buyers should choose the RM228,888 Luxury+. It has the same listed 102.2 kWh battery, 430 km range, 435 hp AWD drivetrain, single-ratio automatic gearbox and five-seat layout as the RM246,888 Premium. The RM18,000 gap is substantial when the mechanical specification is unchanged. On paper, you are paying for trim rather than extra range or power, so only step up to Premium after checking that its equipment list contains the items you want.

Verdict

The eTerron 9 brings serious headline hardware for an electric pick-up: 435 hp, AWD and a 102.2 kWh battery. But it enters at RM2,588 above the Toyota Hilux and RM29,000 above the JAC T9 EV, with the Premium extending the gap further. The Luxury+ makes the stronger case because it matches the Premium’s listed battery, range and drivetrain figures.
