The Foton Truck Mate 5 Dropside is a step up in capacity from the TM3, offering a longer wheelbase, greater payload, and a choice of 1.5-litre petrol or 2.2-litre diesel engines. The dropside configuration (cargo bed 3,300 × 1,710 mm) handles payloads of up to 1,800 kg — suitable for timber, steel, bagged goods, and large-volume urban freight. With a GVW of up to 3,490 kg, it bridges the gap between mini trucks and light commercial vehicles, making it a highly versatile platform for traders, contractors, and small fleets.
