Why the different names?
Chinese brands often sell one car under several badges: a Chinese name at home (悍途, Hàntú) and one or more export names abroad. Renames happen to avoid trademark conflicts, to fit a global naming system, or because the domestic name does not translate well.
New-generation pickup; 'Hantu' becomes T9 abroad.
