Chinese carmaker Jetour has launched the Dashing and X70 Plus SUVs in South Africa, bringing its five- and seven-seater models to the market. In Malaysia, these models have been previewed in May this year, and the duo is set to enter the Malaysian market later this year.
“We have been focusing on the South African market for a long time. By the end of this year, we will establish 40 sales networks and aim for [sales of 2,000 units], with a cumulative sales goal of 20,000 units over the next three years,” said Jetour Auto vice president Ke Chuandeng.
In South Africa, the Dashing is offered in two variants; the Momentum is priced at 439,900 rand (RM106,332), while the Deluxe is priced at 469,900 rand (RM113,583).

In Malaysia, both the Jetour Dashing and the X70 Plus will also be offered in two variants, namely the Prime and the Signature. Both the Dashing and X70 Plus are powered by a 1.5 litre turbocharged petrol four-cylinder engine, rated to produce 156 PS at 5,500 rpm and 230 Nm of torque from 1,750 rpm to 4,000 rpm.

Safety and assistance kit on the five-seater is comprised of passive cruise control, a reverse camera, ABS, EBD, brake assist, ESC, traction control, six airbags, a tyre pressure monitoring system, ISOFIX child seat anchors, overspeed warning and four reverse sensors.
Stepping up to the Signature brings a panoramic sunroof, a four-way powered front passenger seat, ambient lighting, lane change assist, blind spot monitoring, lane change warning, rear cross traffic alert and a 360-degree around view monitor.
