Eight Chinese cars that flopped in Australia
6 Years Ago
The Foton View CS2 is a discontinued van that reflected the brand's earlier focus on affordable commercial vehicles in Australia. It was aimed at businesses needing passenger or cargo-carrying ability without the cost of more established European and Japanese van options. The View CS2 is no longer sold new locally, with Foton's current Australian attention now on Tunland utes and Aumark light trucks. Existing examples are likely to appeal only to value-focused operators who understand the trade-offs around age, support and resale. Its role in the lineup was simple: practical transport first, brand polish second. For most buyers, newer commercial alternatives will feel more modern and easier to support.
