“The T2 is really here to disturb the market. I can’t remember the last car that got people so excited. Jetour outdid themselves,” is one of many comments circulating on various digital platforms in response to the newly launched Jetour T2.
Already the top-selling Chinese automotive brand in key markets including Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait and Iraq, the brand’s success has to a large degree been driven by the strong performance of the T2. South Africa now gets to experience this SUV that embodies ruggedness, capability, and adventure-readiness. The Jetour T2 brings premium features, robust capability, and outstanding value to the very competitive SUV segment in South Africa.
These boxy, design-forward SUVs are available in three derivatives, namely the Aspire, Xplora and flagship Odyssey. Across the range, every T2 is equipped with advanced convenience, comfort, safety, and technology features.
All models feature automatic LED headlights, LED daytime running lights, fog lights, electrically folding & heated side mirrors, roof rails, Jetour animation projected onto the ground, rain-sensing wipers, panoramic sunroof and electric tailgate.
In terms of the interior, standard across the line-up is ventilated front seats, paddle shift gears, electrically adjustable driver’s seat, push-button start & keyless entry, dual-zone climate control, USB Type-A and Type-C ports, 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, wireless smartphone charger, a large 15.6-inch infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay & Android Auto.
Safety is a standout feature across all new Jetour T2 models, designed to give drivers confidence on every journey. Each model comes equipped with advanced driver-assistance systems, including cruise control, auto hold assist, rollover mitigation, blind spot monitoring, door open warning, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear collision warning. Six airbags provide comprehensive passenger protection, while rear parking sensors and a 540-degree camera system make manoeuvring effortless. Additional features such as tyre pressure monitoring, traction and stability control, hill descent control, and auto lock/unlock doors further enhance both safety and convenience, ensuring the T2 is as reliable as it is versatile.
All models measure 4785 mm long and 2006 mm wide, with height varying slightly: the Aspire stands at 1870 mm, while the Xplora and Odyssey measure 1880 mm.
