Production of the T9 pickup at the Sollers plant is scheduled for June-July 2025. This was announced by Sergey Sadovenko, Sales Director of JAC Automobile LLC. In addition, in the future, the automaker's facilities will produce a minivan that has not yet been presented in the lineup available for sale in Russia.
We have already made a decision on the localization of our JAC T9 pickup, this will be localization at the Sollers plant. <…> Start of production is planned for June-July this year, and starting from August we will start selling a local product.
According to Sadovenko, the pickup will be assembled at the Sollers enterprise in Ulyanovsk. Currently, the company is actively working on various aspects related to the organization of logistics processes, the delivery of parts and the transfer of cars to dealerships.
Speaking about sales of the T9 pickup, Sadovenko noted that at the moment this car accounts for about 35–40% of total sales. Half of them are corporate buyers. In general, sales of all JAC pickups account for a quarter of the segment, and the T9 has been the best-selling car in Russia for the past four months.
As for the minivan, its production is scheduled to start in the third-fourth quarters of this year. However, it is not yet known at which Sollers production site this will happen.
Earlier, Sollers revealed the prices for the ST8 all-wheel drive frame pickup. The initial configuration of the Russian car is cheaper than its Chinese counterpart, the JAC T8.
