Adventurous Design DNA Built for Exploration
Jetour T2’s design was led by former Porsche designer Hakan Saracoglu, adopting a “modern boxy” aesthetic that aims directly at rivals like Bronco, Defender, and Wrangler but with flexible Chinese innovation.
Key exterior highlights: bold fenders, sharp edges, contemporary lighting, elevated roofline, and expanded body proportions for strong on-road presence and camping utility.
A variety of color options and stylized graphic packages suit youthful buyers and large families alike.
Dimensions and Authority on the Road
Length: 4,785mm, Width: 2,006mm, Height: 1,880mm, Wheelbase: 2,800mm—among the largest in class, ensuring comfort and ample cabin room.
High ground clearance (205mm) lets the car tackle speed bumps and uneven terrain without worry, plus approach/departure angles of 28 and 30 degrees rival the toughest competitors.
Total weight is 2,110kg, delivering notable balance and highway stability for long hauls.
Engineering: Technology, Materials, and Interior Quality
Built on a monocoque chassis, T2 fuses traditional frame strength with the refinement and vibration damping of a unitary body.
Front independent MacPherson strut suspension and multi-link rear—engineered for minimum body roll and consistent stability everywhere.
Superior sound insulation and upgraded trim craftsmanship offer quiet city cruising and enjoyable long-distance comfort
Hybrid Power and Multi-Dimensional Driving
The T2 iDM’s hybrid drivetrain, pairing gasoline and electric motors, means robust torque, smooth acceleration, and genuine fuel savings in all driving conditions.
Four trim levels: Comfort, Luxury, Luxury 8AT, and Lux iDM (priced 124,990–159,990 SAR).
Special Giti 255/55R20 tires match the car’s size for strong on-road grip; a water fording radar inspires safe confidence in flooded streets and desert lows.
