Business Day reviews the Tunland G7’s value proposition

Business Day motoring writer Denis Droppa reviewed the Tunland G7 TLX 4×4, finding a well-equipped double cab with useful performance for its price at the time.
The test highlighted a 120 kW, 390 Nm turbo-diesel engine and an eight-speed automatic gearbox. A digital cabin, passenger features and working-vehicle capability formed part of the appeal.
A balanced assessment
Droppa also noted engine roughness, some basic interior plastics and an infotainment system that could be confusing. The unloaded ride was firm, particularly over speed humps and rough gravel. His review treated long-term reliability and resale values as open questions.
This summary preserves those qualifications alongside the positive assessment. Ask Thorp Foton to help compare today’s G7 derivatives and arrange a drive over roads representative of your everyday use.
