Motorinvest offers frame pickup Dongfeng DF6 in three versions

The company will announce the start date of sales of the Chinese truck in Russia later. Prices have not yet been declassified.

The Dongfeng DF6 four-wheel drive frame pickup truck is the twin of the current generation Nissan Navara (Dongfeng and Nissan have a joint venture). Recall that in the home market the model is sold under the name Rich 6. Earlier, in May 2022, the truck already appeared in the Russian Federation (in a single version), but subsequently the deliveries stopped. Now the official distributor of the brand's products, the Motorinvest company, is once again bringing the Dongfeng DF6 to the Russian market, and in three versions at once.

The length of the Chinese pickup is 5310 mm, width — 1850 mm, height — 1810 mm, and the dimensions of the cargo compartment — 1520 x 1520 x 475 mm (also accommodates euro pallets). The ground clearance of this model is 220 mm. Its permissible gross weight is 2499 kg, so this pickup is not subject to the restrictions for trucks over 2.5 tons.

The pickup truck brought to Russia has only one cab option — a four-door with a two-row interior designed for four riders. The seats are trimmed with eco-leather, the front ones are heated, the richer versions have an infotainment system with a 7 or 9-inch touchscreen, as well as climate control (air conditioning is provided for the basic version).

The Dongfeng DF6 equipment list includes front airbags, electronic stabilization system, traction control, and anti-lock brakes with brake force distribution function. The complex of all-round cameras is provided only for the top version of the pickup.The Dongfeng DF6 all-wheel drive system is made according to the Part Time scheme: the truck has a hard-wired front axle and a reduction gear in the transfer case; The selector located on the front panel allows you to switch between modes. The model has front suspension on double wishbones, and the rear suspension is dependent spring. Dongfeng DF6

The engine range includes a pair of turbodiesels, the base is the 136-horsepower version of the ZD25T5 with a volume of 2.5 liters, its maximum torque is 305 Nm. More expensive versions are supposed to have a 163-horsepower version of the M9T-60A with a volume of 2.3 liters (380 Nm). The pair offers five- and six-speed manual transmissions, as well as an eight-speed automatic. It is known that at the start, the pickup truck will be offered in three versions — the basic Comfort, the average Premium and the top-end Luxury. The Russian price list will be made public later. It should be noted that last year the recommended retail price tag was 2,790,000 rubles, but since then the weakened ruble and the increase in salvage rates have affected the car market, so now the cost of the truck will most likely be higher.
