Some specifications for the JAC Hunter PHEV are still being completed: torque, 0-100km/h, turning circle and energy consumption. We only publish a figure once we have it from the manufacturer, so these stay blank rather than being estimated. They'll appear as they're confirmed.

Towing and load
The 4WD and load hardware this variant lists, the rig calculator, the load plans and the cost to towCost to tow
The real fuel/energy cost once you hitch up. Pick a trailer and trip.
⚠ PHEV: the rated tow capacity is legal, but once the battery is depleted it tows on the petrol engine alone — expect noticeably lower speed on highway climbs and much higher fuel use (real-world tests hit ~30 L/100km near capacity on a flat battery). Keep some charge in reserve for hills.
Estimate only: consumption rises as range falls; real use varies with terrain, wind and load.
Off-Road Capability
The wedges are drawn from this vehicle’s published approach, departure and breakover angles, and the water line marks its published wading depth.
Unladen figures. Approach, departure and breakover angles and ground clearance all reduce once the vehicle is loaded with passengers, cargo or towball weight, so treat these as a best-case guide.
Manufacturer-published figures, shown as a guide. Not independently verified and may vary by variant, trim, tyre or model year. Vehicle drawings are schematic and ride-height differences are exaggerated for legibility. Confirm with the manufacturer before relying on them for off-road planning.

Overview
If you want a dual-cab work ute that can run short trips on electricity and still pull a big load, the 2026 JAC Hunter PHEV Pro PHEV is built around that idea. It's a 5-seat plug-in hybrid ute with 4WD, a 31.2kWh battery and a claimed 100km of electric-only range. It has a 3,500kg braked towing capacity. Payload is 915kg, and it carries a 77-litre fuel tank. We don't have a price for it yet, so a dealer can quote one, and we also don't have a fuel figure for running it with a flat battery.

Battery and Charging
AC is home or destination charging. DC is public fast charging. Typical 10 to 80% is the useful fast-charge window. Battery preheating and a heat pump both protect fast-charging speed and range in the cold. 🏆 marks the strongest car per row.

Drawn at a shared scale across the compared cars and across both ends of a staggered car, so a bigger tyre is genuinely bigger. Sidewall view shows wall height (profile); tread view shows width. Price band is an indicative fitted cost, budget brand (low) to premium brand (high), for four of the one size or for two fronts plus two rears where the car is staggered, unless a verified set price is on file.

The 2026 JAC Hunter PHEV X PHEV is a 5-seat 4WD dual-cab ute with a plug-in hybrid powertrain and a 31.2kWh battery. We don't have a price on record yet, so the page shows POA for now. It carries a 915kg payload. Braked towing is rated at 3,500kg. The claimed electric-only range is 100km and the official combined fuel figure is 1.6L/100km, but that test starts with a charged battery and we don't have a flat-battery fuel figure on record yet, so it suits tradies and families who can plug in regularly and want a ute that still does the heavy lifting.

JAC Hunter PHEV Pro Cab Chassis PHEV
The JAC Hunter Pro Cab Chassis is a tray-back version of JAC's Hunter plug-in hybrid ute, which pairs a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine with electric drive. JAC Motors Australia lists it on its Hunter page as coming soon, alongside the Hunter Pro and Hunter X dual-cabs that are on sale now. JAC has not yet published a price, an arrival date, or any specifications for the cab-chassis, including its masses, payload and towing figures, so this listing carries none of them. The dual-cab Hunter's published figures describe a different body and should not be read as the cab-chassis's.
