Karachi: In recent years, Pakistan has seen a growing pickup truck culture, with demand rising not only for business use but also among families and lifestyle enthusiasts. 

From traditional diesel-powered models to the arrival of hybrid and electric pickups, the segment is diversifying rapidly. Now, another strong contender is on the horizon – the Foton Tunland 2025.

Recently, a camouflaged unit of the Foton Tunland 2025 Double Cabin was spotted in Karachi, carrying the Sindh registration number SB-4699. 

The vehicle, registered under Master Motor Corporation Private Limited, indicates that the Chinese automaker Foton, in partnership with Master Motors, is preparing to introduce this new pickup in Pakistan.

Vehicle Details from Excise Records

According to official records from the Sindh Excise Department, the Foton Tunland spotted is a 2025 model year, double-cabin pickup with a seating capacity of 5 passengers. It is powered by a 2000cc engine, offering a balance between performance and utility.

• Registration Number: SB-4699
• Model Year: 2025
• Body Type: Double Cabin
• Engine Capacity: 2000cc
• Seating Capacity: 5
• Owner: Master Motor Corporation Pvt Ltd
• CPLC & Safe Custody: Vehicle is clear

Camouflaged Test Unit

The photographed vehicle was heavily camouflaged, a common practice for test units, concealing much of its final design. 

Despite this, the pickup’s muscular build, new LED taillights, and rugged exterior hint at its positioning as a modern and competitive option in Pakistan’s fast-growing pickup segment.

Pakistan’s Pickup Culture Expanding

The arrival of the Foton Tunland aligns with the changing dynamics of Pakistan’s auto market. Pickups are no longer seen solely as commercial workhorses; instead, they are becoming lifestyle vehicles for families, off-road enthusiasts, and urban professionals. 

With global players introducing hybrid and electric models, such as the JAC T8 EV and upcoming Toyota Hilux hybrid variants, Tunland’s entry marks another step toward diversification.

For now, auto enthusiasts are keeping a close watch as Pakistan’s pickup truck culture continues to gain momentum, with the Foton Tunland 2025 potentially becoming the next big name on local roads.
