Chronology
Predecessor	JMC Baodian

The JMC Yuhu pickup shares similar exterior design elements with the Ford Ranger and Mazda BT-50, but it is built on Jiangling's own platform.

During the 2015 Shanghai Motor Show, Jiangling Motors showed off an off-road coupé utility concept version of the pickup with cooperation with Ford.

Jiangling entered the Australian market in 2016, and the truck is the first model sold under the name JMC Vigus. Jiangling left the Australian market in 2018 due to poor sales of the Vigus.

A second generation JMC Yuhu was launched in May 2025 sharing the platform with the third generation JMC Baodian. Compared to the Baodian, the front end is restyled resulting in a shorter vehicle length. The Yuhu also features more premium options and resulting in a higher price tag positioned above the Baodian. The only engine option is the 2.5 liter turbo-diesel inline-4 shared with the third generation Yuhu, while transmission options are the same 5-speed manual transmission and 8-speed automatic transmission.
