How the Maxus T60 helped a customer fulfill a childhood dream

With its robust structure, outstanding power, and impressive capabilities, the Maxus T60 has been consistently delivering remarkable driving experiences for its drivers.

T60 owner Adrian Tecson shares how his vehicle brings back childhood memories as this “toy truck” has allowed him to play out his childhood dreams in a real-life setting.

“The T60’s power has been impressive. It’s a dependable beast, which is actually why I’ve given it the name ‘Tonka’, after the indestructible toy trucks during the '80s,” Tecson enthused. “I’ve used this beast to do some light trailing — having crossed muddy terrains and river crossings without any problems.”

This Maxus is powered by a 2.8-liter diesel engine with variable geometry turbocharger that churns out 150ps and 360Nm of torque.

“That’s enough power for Tonka to be a true workhorse — carry heavy loads such as plywood boards, bags of cement, even generators in its truck bed that’s bigger than most,” Tecson stated. With this power, Tecson’s T60 is able keep up with his various sports and outdoor activities during weekends.

Aside from its huge stance and muscular structure, the T60 also offers state-of-the-art comfort features. According to Tecson, he is also using Tonka for long drives with his family. “The T60 offers great legroom for my passengers, and it even has phone connectivity integrated in the beautifully designed dashboard. This always brings a smile on my face whenever I step in and drive Tonka,” he shared. “The keyless entry, 10-inch infotainment system, and electronic seat adjustments are also big pluses for me, and definitely most appreciated.”

Tecson also recalled how other pickup trucks competed for his attention when he was looking for a new vehicle. What made the Maxus T60 stand out is the dealership’s personalized brand of service. “Because of the current pandemic, the cost and practicality of the vehicle I was about to purchase was the main consideration. I was very happy with how the Maxus dealership was very accommodating and had me try the T60 for a couple of days. When I used it in real-world situations, not once did I feel that I was driving a truck that was priced 30 percent lower than its other counterparts. This was the deciding factor, being practical didn’t have to mean sacrificing the features which I have been looking for in a truck,” he maintained.

Every purchase of T60 comes with a five-year or 100,000-km warranty and a periodic maintenance service (PMS) interval schedule of the first 5,000 km and every succeeding 15,000 km or once a year. Maxus Philippines also offers a 24/7 emergency roadside assistance (ERA) on all Maxus models. This remarkable after-sales service by Maxus guarantees the value for money and worry-free ownership that its valued customers truly deserve.
