Pickup trucks, with their unique charm, embody the passion of off-road explorers, the trust of cargo transporters, and the favor of young camping enthusiasts. The thrill of motorboating and the tranquility of fishing can both be experienced through a pickup truck, bringing together like-minded car enthusiasts to share the joy of driving.
As a seasoned player in the Chinese pickup truck sector, ZXAUTO boasts a rich product line that caters to a wide range of driving scenarios. From the high-end ZX1949 full-size pickup to the versatile ZX1986 series for commercial use, as long as you have a need for a pickup truck, you can find the most suitable model within ZXAUTO's two major pickup truck series.

1. The Dream Choice for Self-Drive Adventures
   For travelers who love self-drive adventures and long to traverse vast landscapes, hardcore off-road vehicles are often considered the ideal choice. However, pickup trucks have also demonstrated remarkable strength and charm in this area. The demands of long-distance travel particularly emphasize vehicle reliability, loading capacity, and a certain level of off-road capability, which are precisely the strengths of pickup trucks. Therefore, whether it's for self-drive adventures or scientific expeditions, we can always see pickup trucks in action.
   Among the many outstanding models of ZXAUTO, the ZX1949 short-bed version stands out as the perfect choice for adventure trips. Its excellence primarily lies in its outstanding comfort while maintaining off-road capability, which is fully demonstrated in three key aspects: spatial layout, comfort configurations, and suspension structure.
   As the first full-size pickup truck from a domestic brand, ZX1949 boasts impressive dimensions, with a length, width, and height of 5440×2045×1965mm and a wheelbase of 3230mm. These specifications rival imported pickup trucks priced at seven or eight hundred thousand yuan. Such dimensions not only give ZX1949 a powerful and imposing appearance but also bring unprecedented spaciousness and comfort to the interior. The second-row seats have satisfactory cushion length and height, with a reasonable backrest angle, providing good support and comfort for passengers. In addition, the car is equipped with thoughtful configurations such as a wide center armrest, air conditioning vents, and power outlets. For a pickup truck priced at just over ten thousand yuan, such a level of configuration is undoubtedly surprising. During long-distance self-drive or adventure trips, even if there are three or more passengers in the car, the ZX1949 short-bed version ensures that everyone enjoys a comfortable and convenient riding experience.
   It's worth mentioning that many users often consider extensive comfort modifications before choosing a pickup truck for self-drive travel. However, such concerns can be almost completely eliminated for the ZX1949 short-bed version. Its interior design is filled with the atmosphere of a passenger car, and it comes with rich comfort and convenience configurations such as front and rear parking sensors, optional 360-degree panoramic imaging, seat heating, electric adjustment for the driver and front passenger seats, and wireless charging. Although adaptive cruise control is not yet available, cruise control is sufficient to meet the needs of most users for long-distance travel.
   Of course, vehicle comfort is not solely determined by space and configuration; the suspension system's performance is also crucial. The ZX1949 short-bed version adopts a five-link coil spring solid axle rear suspension, which has significant advantages in road handling and riding comfort compared to the leaf springs commonly used in ordinary pickup trucks and commercial versions.
   In terms of power, the ZX1949 short-bed version offers two engine options: a 2.0T gasoline engine and a 2.3T diesel engine, and all models are equipped with ZF's 8AT transmission. The gasoline version has won the favor of users with its excellent power reserve and operational quality, while the diesel version has become the first choice for many users due to its greater torque and better fuel economy. As for which power configuration to choose, it depends on personal needs.
   The ZX1949 short-bed version not only excels in adventure scenarios but is also a worthwhile consideration for users who wish to use a pickup truck for daily family use. Its spacious cabin and abundant comfort configurations make it suitable for both business and family use.
2. The People's Hero of Off-Road Adventures
   Off-roading is another important application area for pickup trucks. Their non-load-bearing body design combined with high ground clearance gives pickup trucks exceptional off-road performance. To further enhance this advantage, ZXAUTO has launched the ZX1986 Explorer PULS model, specifically tailored for off-road enthusiasts.
   Compared to ordinary pickup trucks, the ZX1986 Explorer PULS can be seen as a factory-modified version, eliminating the hassle and expense of dismantling equipment during the annual inspection after users have made modifications themselves. The reinforced "3H" cage body structure and high-strength longitudinal beams have been carefully crafted to provide this model with rock-solid torsional rigidity.
   The front and rear suspension specifications are diverse and carefully tuned, with the front suspension adopting a double-wishbone structure and the rear suspension using leaf springs. When it comes to off-roading, the four-wheel drive system cannot be overlooked. The ZX1986 Explorer PULS is equipped with a part-time four-wheel drive system provided by BorgWarner, providing the vehicle with powerful off-road capabilities. Additionally, the model comes standard with a snorkel, which allows drivers to relax and confidently tackle various water-crossing situations. This configuration enables the vehicle to handle deep water road conditions more calmly and effectively avoids vehicle damage and losses caused by water crossing.
   Apart from the chassis, suspension, and four-wheel drive system, the ZX1986 Explorer PULS also excels in safety protection. The addition of front and rear steel bumpers, steel side steps, and other safety protection equipment has elevated the vehicle's safety performance to a new level. Furthermore, an electric winch can be optionally installed, providing excellent self-rescue capabilities. This model is ready for off-road adventures right from the factory.
3. An Efficient Partner for Earning Through Cargo Transportation
   In the current pickup truck market, loading needs have shown a trend of diversification. User groups such as motorcycle enthusiasts, camping enthusiasts, and fishing enthusiasts are particularly fond of pickup trucks because they can conveniently carry their motorcycles, camping equipment, fishing rods, and motorboats.
   For these users, the ZX1949 long-bed version is undoubtedly an ideal choice. Compared to the short-bed version, the long-bed version has a more elongated body, with a cargo box size of 1810×1700×515mm, which is sufficient to meet the transportation needs of various large equipment. The rear axle adopts leaf springs that focus more on load capacity. Moreover, as a model in the high-end series, the 1949 long-bed version also boasts excellent comfort configurations, comparable to the short-bed version. Both versions are positioned as suitable for both business and family use. So, how should one choose between the two models? If you have higher loading needs and need to tow high-end toys, then the ZX1949 long-bed version will be your best choice. However, if you need to go on self-drive adventures with more passengers, then the short-bed version will be more friendly, as it offers better road handling and riding comfort.
   Of course, if users purely use pickup trucks as a productivity tool for transporting goods to earn money, then the ZX1986 heavy-duty version will be a more economical choice. This model is characterized by simplicity, reliability, robustness, and durability, with a price below 100,000 yuan. It is highly suitable for users who need a sturdy pickup truck to handle heavy transportation tasks.
   Although the ZX1986 heavy-duty version's body size is slightly shorter than the 1949 version, its cargo box size is comparable, measuring 1810×1700×515mm, offering impressive loading capacity. The entire series adopts reinforced rear leaf springs, making the vehicle more stable and reliable when fully loaded and facing complex road conditions. In terms of power, it is equipped with Isuzu's 2.8T turbocharged diesel engine, a globally renowned commercial vehicle engine that has been tested and proven to be mature, stable, and excellent in low-speed torque, embodying the essence of hard work and endurance.
