Terron 9 in 2026 — what's new
The Mk1 Maxus Terron 9 is new for 2026. The current Malaysian range comprises Luxury and Premium trims, both using a 2,498 cc diesel engine, automatic transmission and AWD. A June 2026 debut confirms the 2.5-litre diesel Terron 9 for Malaysia. No later 2026 model-year changes are specified, so the two-variant diesel line-up carries the same 219 hp output and five-seat layout.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the Terron 9 Luxury at RM145,888. It already gets the full listed mechanical package: a 219 hp 2.5-litre diesel, automatic gearbox, AWD and five seats. The Premium costs RM158,888, a RM13,000 step up, but its listed mechanical specifications are identical. On paper, you are paying for trim rather than extra power or drivetrain hardware, so check the equipment list before committing to Premium.

Maxus Terron 9 buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The Terron 9 brings a straightforward diesel-AWD pick-up package, with 219 hp and an automatic transmission standard across both trims. Its entry price is higher than the Nissan Navara, JMC Vigus Pro, Mitsubishi Triton, Foton Tunland and Peugeot Landtrek, and also exceeds the Mazda BT-50's RM140,418 starting price. The case for it therefore rests on its specified drivetrain and the Luxury trim's equipment, not a low entry price.
