  • A New Breed of Pickup

The Changan Hunter Turbo Diesel redefines what it means to own a bakkie in South Africa. Combining rugged capability with modern design, it’s a vehicle that looks the part on the job site while turning heads on the weekend. With bold exterior styling, chrome accents and striking touches like LED headlamps, utility hooks and 18-inch alloys, it’s a powerful mix of toughness and refinement.

Power You Can Count On

At its core lies a 2.0L turbo diesel engine, delivering 110 kW and 350 Nm of torque through either a smooth 6-speed manual (two-wheel drive) or 6-speed automatic transmission, on the four-wheel drive version. Whether tackling heavy loads, steep inclines, or long highway stretches, the Hunter’s engine is tuned for reliability and efficiency, giving you the muscle you need without compromising on running costs. With its torque-rich delivery and drivetrain versatility, the Hunter is tuned to South African conditions, offering the practical power for fleet and commercial business use with the refined drivability for everyday commuting.  

It’s performance that’s built for South African roads and our unique conditions, to be strong, steady and dependable.

Elevated Comfort That Surprises

Inside, the Hunter surprises with features rarely found in its segment. Premium leather seating, a 10-inch infotainment touchscreen and multifunction steering wheel bring refinement to every drive, while tactile console controls and soft-touch finishes elevate the everyday experience.

It’s a rough and tough workspace during the week and the perfect family companion on the weekends, offering the versatility to adapt to every occasion.

Technology that Works Harder

The Hunter is loaded with driver-focused technology, from keyless entry and start-stop functionality to cruise control, tyre pressure monitoring and traction systems that adapt to the terrain. The four-wheel drive version boasts low range capability, while the two-wheel drive Hunter offers a formidable 1100KG’s of payload capacity. Add rear camera assistance and parking sensors, and you’ve got a bakkie that’s as smart as it is strong – one that works with you, wherever the road may take you.

Safety Without Compromise

When it comes to safety, the Hunter has you covered. Multiple airbags, electronic stability control, hill start assist and hill descent control provide confidence in every condition.

The Hunter isn’t just built to perform, it’s built to protect, giving you and your passengers the reassurance that every drive is a safe one.

After Sales & Peace of Mind

Backing the Hunter is Changan’s growing South African dealer network, with parts availability and warranty coverage designed to keep you moving. It’s an ownership experience that delivers more than value, it delivers peace of mind. So whether it’s for B2B fleet, where up time and reliability are key, or for a family that depends on the Hunter to deliver reliably, Changan is committed to providing support, for the long road ahead.

Driven To Evolve

The Changan Hunter Turbo Diesel is more than a pickup – it’s a bakkie built for today and ready for tomorrow. All new Changan models arrive with special introductory pricing, rewarding early adopters and making your first step with Changan as inspiring as the long journey ahead.

The top of the range 4WD AT version is expected to retail in South Africa considerably below the R600,000.00 mark, and backed by a 5 Year / 150 000KM warranty, the Hunter proves that ruggedness, capability and reliability don’t need to come at a premium. Changan is committed to South African drivers, offering a featureful bakkie that delivers it all: Strength, style and the confidence of Changan staying power for years to come.
