The place of the Ford Transit that left Russia is expected to be taken by JAC Sunray

Since the beginning of the Russian special operation in Ukraine, Russia’s Sollers Ford plant, which produced Ford Transit vans and minibuses, has been shut down. In addition, it is not known whether the conveyor belt will restart, everything will depend on the decision of the Ford headquarters. Meanwhile, the Chinese JAC Sunray will try to occupy the vacated niche.

Company representatives told the browser of the AvtoVzglyad portal that the Sunray model will complement the Russian line of the JAC brand at the CTT exhibition currently taking place in Moscow. Vans, buses and chassis will come to Russia from neighboring Kazakhstan, where production is arranged.

We add that the JAC Sunray looks like a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. It has different wheelbase options (from 3,570 to 3,580 mm), as well as a standard and heavy version – the latter requires a category C driver’s license to drive.

The novelty is equipped with a 150 hp JAC turbo diesel, which works with a manual six-speed gearbox. Drive – rear only. The basic version includes power steering, stabilization system and driver airbag.

As the AvtoVzglyad portal was able to find out, the model has passed the mandatory certification procedure for a long time, so there are no obstacles to starting sales. By the way, in neighboring Belarus, the truck has been on sale for three years now, moreover, under the MAZ brand.

And another news about trucks. The renowned racing team KAMAZ-master sells racing trucks. For example, the current model 43509 (in the title photo) can be bought by anyone by paying 60 million rubles.
