JAC Motors’ ultimate flatbed workhorse, the X200, is an ideal addition to any business, big or small. What’s more is that the double-cab configuration of the X200 is now available in Namibia offering high reliability design as well as a great warranty, seven-year/200 000km warranty, for a commercial vehicle.
The 1.3-tonne forward-cab double-cab boasts a 2.8L TDI’s configuration as a unique offering in Namibia. This double-cab design provides an expanded loadbox and payload capacity while being able to accommodate six crew members legally and safely, enhancing productivity and cost-efficiency.
This is a particular benefit to Namibian businesses as transporting staff openly on the back of a truck remains a grey area, although this is still practiced indiscriminately on Namibian roads.
JAC Motors Namibia sales manager, Karl-Heinz Eisenberg said the X200 double-cab’s ultra-low flat deck is perfect for rapid loading and unloading. What’s more, the X200 double-cab boasts the same load capacity as single-cab counterparts.
“It’s a practical and versatile choice, ensuring safe, comfortable, and on-time transportation of your crew and cargo, no matter how challenging the destination,” he said.
He added that the double-cab X200 retails locally for N$399 900 while he single-cab version goes for about N$379 900.
The X200’s ultra-flat low deck offers more deck clearance, making loading and unloading goods easier and faster. The deck clearance is 785mm for both the single and double-cabs, which is 30% lower than normal light trucks.
X200’s have JAC truck DNA which is synonymous with a powerful engine and a strong chassis. The X200 curb weight is 20% lighter than a light truck, saving more operational costs for businesses.
In addition, with a new truck steering system, the X200’s turning radius is smaller than 5.5 metres.
The small truck offers front independent suspension and disc brakes, which culminate in a an excellent driving performance.
The front-cabin maintenance space provides customers with easy access to top up liquids when required.
Meanwhile, the X200 2.8L TDI’s 1.5-tonne single cab layout also offers superior practicality compared to conventional bakkies. This configuration significantly enhances load box dimensions and enables larger load capacities. Designed with an ideal ride height as well as the ultra-low flat deck, it caters to modern cargo transport demands, ensuring quick and efficient loading and unloading.
The X200 features JAC Motors’ latest heavy-duty ladder-frame chassis, engineered with advanced stamping and welding treatments, ensuring durability for diverse body applications and the ability to manage heavy loads in challenging conditions.
During a head-to-head test conducted by a prominent online publication, featuring the X200 against its market leading counterparts, the X200 outperformed in payload capacity, boasting 30% more power, better fuel efficiency and cost-effective operation.
JAC Motors recently extended the warranty and service plan offerings on its workhorse line-up. This reinforces the company’s confidence in its products and guarantees peace-of-mind motoring, even in challenging conditions.
The X200 2.8L TDI range offers a seven-year/200 000km warranty comprising two main elements, namely a comprehensive five-year/100 000km warranty covering essential mechanical components such as the diesel pump, turbocharger, injectors and more, as well as an additional two-year/100 000km warranty covering the internal engine gearbox and differential components.
