The DF6 pickup, introduced for commercial use and initially rolled out in Russia, is positioned as a versatile vehicle that blends cargo capability with city practicality. Its overall length reaches 5310 mm, placing it in the same class as popular double-cab pickups like the Nissan Navara and Toyota Hilux. The vehicle measures 1850 mm in width and 1810 mm in height, with a ground clearance of 220 mm. This combination supports both urban maneuverability and light off-road work. The cargo bed is notably generous: 1520x1520x475 mm, which makes it suitable for a standard Euro pallet with room to spare. More importantly, the DF6 pushes a gross vehicle weight of 2459 kg, enabling operation in cities that restrict heavier vehicles without special permits, while still offering practical payload for daily business tasks.
Under the hood sits a 2.5-liter ZD25T5 turbo diesel engine delivering 136 horsepower and 305 Nm of torque. Power is routed to all four wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. The four-wheel-drive system operates on a part-time basis, featuring a rigid front axle paired with a reduction gear, which helps balance highway efficiency with capable traction when needed for tougher work scenarios.
Inside, the Dongfeng DF6 is equipped with a comprehensive set of features designed for comfort and convenience during long workdays. Standard equipment includes air conditioning, keyless entry, and a push-button start system. The cabin is warmed by heated seats and mirrors, and parking sensors assist with tight urban maneuvers. Electric windows and mirrors add daily practicality, while a tire pressure monitoring system helps maintain safety. A USB audio system with steering-wheel controls keeps drivers connected and focused, and there are several other convenience and safety features to support business use.
Pricing for the DF6 in the Comfort configuration is 2,790,000 rubles, reflecting its balance of capability, modern equipment, and competitive value for fleet and small business operations.
