The Foton MP-X S (蒙派克S) was launched in 2013 as a more premium model above the regular Foton View vans and the model was renamed to Foton View G9 as of 2016, while the Foton View G7 was released by Foton in 2014. The G7 and G9 models share all essential body parts as well as styling features with only the size being different. An additional model called the Foton View G5 was added later as a rebadged trim of the Foton MP-X.
Engine options of the Foton View G7 include a 2.0-liter gasoline engine and a 2.4 liter gasoline engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission while engine options of the Foton View G9 includes a 2.4-liter gasoline engine and 2.8-liter turbo diesel engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission.
Controversies
The designs of the Foton View G7 and G9 models are controversial as they heavily resemble the fifth generation Toyota HiAce (H200) with similar body styles and overall vehicle dimensions. The Jinbei Grand Haise are among the various Chinese vans from domestic brands that chose to replicate the Toyota HiAce H200 vans with only minor styling differences. Other brands include government owned manufacturers including Rely and Jinbei.
