Overview
editThe JMC Yuhu pickup shares similar exterior design elements with the Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50, but it is built on Jiangling's own platform.
During the 2015 Shanghai Motor Show, Jiangling Motors showed off an off-road coupé utility concept version of the pickup with cooperation with Ford.[3]
Jiangling entered the Australian market in 2016, and the truck is the first model sold under the name JMC Vigus.[4] Jiangling left the Australian market in 2018 due to poor sales of the Vigus.[5]
