The global unveiling of the all-new Jetour G700 at Dubai’s iconic Burj Khalifa marks a pivotal moment for both the Chinese automaker and the region’s luxury SUV market. This flagship event signals Jetour’s ambitions to set new benchmarks in power, technology, and comfort—all wrapped in a robust off-road package tailored for the discerning Middle Eastern audience. The G700 isn’t just another SUV; it’s a declaration that ambitious Chinese brands can now compete with—and even outshine—global luxury manufacturers in tech, versatility, and on-road presence.

Jetour’s determined expansion in the Gulf marks the culmination of years of learning from predecessors like the X70 and T-Series, which have successfully established the brand’s reputation in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. Now, the G700 comes as a bolder, more innovative model, targeting those who demand SUV excellence and signature comfort in the region’s challenging landscapes.

Brand Vision and Global Expansion

Jetour’s journey from local prominence to global reach started modestly but quickly gathered momentum, selling an impressive 1.93 million units across 91 countries. The G700’s introduction continues this trajectory, aiming squarely at customers looking for new standards in luxury, environmental responsibility, and off-road performance. Jetour’s proprietary GAIA platform underscores this ambition—integrating smart hybrid systems and advanced driver assistance to elevate the driving experience both on the highway and far beyond, into the desert.

This new architecture isn’t just about brute force. GAIA is designed for real-world resilience, marrying high-output electric motors with dependable hybrid engineering. That foundation empowers the G700 to thrive in the harshest environments of the Middle East, balancing technical innovation with rugged utility.

Exterior Design and Engineering

The Jetour G700’s aesthetic leaves no doubt about its ambitions. The body-on-frame construction creates a commanding visual impact—all hard lines, purposeful edges, and muscular proportions engineered for serious adventure. At 5,153 mm long, 2,050 mm wide, and 1,960 mm tall, with a 2,850 mm wheelbase and 230 mm ground clearance, the G700 projects both sophistication and capability. Its approach and departure angles (35° and 28°) equip it for sand dunes, rocky trails, and water crossings—the latter rated at 900 mm.

Because real exploration demands real features, the G700 boasts a “tank turn” for tricky maneuvers, crawling mode for low-speed control in technical terrain, and a transparent chassis camera, letting drivers see obstacles underneath the vehicle with unrivaled clarity. This suite of off-road engineering is designed with the Gulf’s deserts, wadis, and urban sprawl in mind.

Powertrain – Advanced Hybrid Technology

The beating heart of the G700 is an advanced plug-in hybrid system: a turbocharged 2.0L petrol engine paired with two robust electric motors. The combined output is a staggering 724 horsepower and 795 Nm of torque, translating into relentless acceleration—0–100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds, with a top speed of 180 km/h. Its 2-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) ensures a seamless blend of electric and mechanical torque, while the all-wheel drive setup delivers sure-footed performance under virtually any conditions.

Drivers enjoy a pure electric range of up to 138 km (CLTC) for city commutes, and a total hybrid range of 1,100 km—courtesy of the 100-liter fuel tank and high-capacity battery. The G700 supports 800V fast charging (ideal for UAE infrastructure), and boasts a 2,500 kg towing capacity, making it fit for both family adventures and serious hauling.

Smart Technology and Interior Comfort

Inside, Jetour’s “smart luxury” philosophy comes to life. The driver is greeted by an ultra-wide, seamless 35.4-inch digital display, supplemented by a crisp central touchscreen—15.6 to 15.8 inches—depending on trim level. Rear-seat passengers in the range-topping LUX trim are treated to an enormous 17.3-inch entertainment display.

Full integration for Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, and Jetour’s advanced voice assistant brings intuitive connectivity. Multiple USB-A/USB-C ports and wireless charging (on MID/LUX trims) keep every device powered, while climate comfort is maintained by a tri-zone automatic system with high-grade filtration and fragrance capabilities.

Premium electric and ventilated seats, with massage and memory functions on the higher trims, ensure every journey is leisurely and restorative. The cabin layout—flexible between 5 and 6 seats—caters to families and adventure-seekers alike, while panoramic sunroofs and ambient lighting raise the comfort bar even further.

Safety and Driving Assistance

Jetour G700 ensures peace of mind through a full-spectrum safety suite:

  • Reinforced chassis with multiple airbags, ABS, ESP, TCS, and Auto Hold

  • Level 2 driving assistance (in MID and LUX): adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, blind spot monitoring, traffic jam assist, forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and 360-degree camera

  • The LUX trim goes further with automatic parking, transparent chassis system, and upgraded sensor coverage

These enhancements make the G700 a legitimate rival to global names when it comes to smart driving and everyday security—a high-value proposition in the GCC and beyond.

Focus on UAE and Saudi Markets

The Jetour G700 is tailored to address evolving preferences in the UAE and Saudi Arabia, where SUV buyers expect not only brute strength but also luxurious rides and advanced tech. Increasing demand for hybrid off-roaders reflects a regional shift toward greener motoring and premium experiences. With a starting price anticipated around AED 220,000 (about USD 59,900), the G700 slots perfectly between costlier global luxury competitors and value-driven Chinese alternatives.

Pre-order momentum is already building via local showrooms. Jetour’s commitment to rapid delivery, robust warranties, and localized luxury trims will help the brand cement its reputation as a leader in the Gulf’s hybrid SUV segment. Unique “LUX” model features reassure buyers in the UAE and Saudi Arabia that their tastes and requirements have been directly considered in the product’s design.

Future Outlook and Regional Competition

The Dubai launch of the Jetour G700 doesn’t just introduce a new model—it ushers in a new era for Chinese luxury SUVs, pairing top-tier comfort, innovation, and hybrid prowess. As the GCC’s car market surges toward premium EVs and hybrids, Jetour is strategically positioned to challenge established global icons like Mercedes, Lexus, and Jeep Grand Wagoneer.

The G700 raises the bar: offering high performance, smart safety, and a price advantage that’s hard to ignore. Jetour’s steady regional growth is a testament to the evolving tastes of Gulf customers, who now prioritize smart features, robust engineering, and pragmatic value.

Jetour’s G700 stands as a bold answer to the region’s demand for luxurious, multi-purpose hybrid SUVs—balancing cutting-edge powertrain engineering, smart technology, and bespoke comfort. Expect this model to rapidly reshape customer expectations in GCC showrooms, especially where the confluence of off-road capability, electronic innovation, and value are most prized.
