The JMC Teshun is a light commercial van manufactured by Jiangling Motors based on the second generation Ford Transit.[4]

Design

Originally being a licensed Ford Transit production, the Jiangling-Ford model was sold from 2006 to 2017 and styling remained unchanged throughout the model years sold as a Ford product.

Starting from May 2017, a version of the old Transit manufactured by JMC was rebadged and slightly redesigned with a completely new front DRG and restyled tail lamp inserts. The rebadged version was then called the JMC Teshun. Pricing ranges from 99,800 yuan to 139,200 yuan.[5][4]
