The JAC T9 dual cab ute has been awarded a five-star safety rating by ANCAP, Australasia’s independent voice on vehicle safety. This rating highlights the vehicle’s strong performance in various safety tests, joining the competitive Australian ute segment.

In physical crash tests, the JAC T9 achieved full points for driver protection in the full-width frontal, side impact, far side impact, and whiplash tests. The vehicle demonstrated adequate protection for the driver’s chest in the oblique pole and frontal offset (MPDB) tests.

The protection of the rear passenger’s chest in the full-width frontal test was assessed as marginal. Full points were awarded for child occupant protection in the frontal offset and side impact tests, although the rear centre seating position is not recommended for child restraints due to the lack of a top tether anchorage.

In comparison to the Mitsubishi Triton, the JAC T9 showed room for improvement in ‘crash compatibility,’ recording a 6.22 point penalty out of 8.00 in the MPDB test. The Mitsubishi Triton recorded a 3.16 point penalty.

The JAC T9 comes standard with a comprehensive suite of active safety features on both the Oasis and Haven variants. The vehicle achieved full points in various autonomous emergency braking (AEB) tests and lane support system tests, including scenarios involving motorcycles, pedestrians, and cyclists.

The T9 is also equipped with an anti-dooring system, warning the driver of approaching cyclists when the vehicle is stopped, although it does not prevent door openings automatically. The ANCAP safety rating for the JAC T9 applies to the 2.0 litre diesel variants sold in Australia.
