The Jetour T1 has made its grand entrance into the UAE market, unveiled during an exclusive event at Jetour’s state-of-the-art flagship showroom in Dubai. This private preview, which also introduced the Jetour X50, offered select media a firsthand experience of the compact SUV ahead of its much-anticipated official launch.

Building on the Success of the T2

Following the remarkable achievements of the Jetour T2, the T1 is set to craft its own legacy in the UAE. With a competitive price tag of AED 129,000, the T1 brings a blend of unique styling and diverse powertrain options, including a cutting-edge hybrid variant, poised to appeal to discerning SUV enthusiasts across the region.

Compact Yet Commanding

First introduced to the Chinese market as the Shanhai T1 in October 2024, the Jetour T1 is positioned as a more agile sibling to the T2, offering practicality without compromising capability. The Jetour T1 measures:

4,706 mm in length
1,967 mm in width
1,845 mm in height

It boasts a wheelbase of 2,810 mm, ensuring a roomy interior while maintaining compact SUV proportions.

Design That Demands Attention

The T1's rugged, boxy design takes inspiration from classic off-roaders, resulting in a commanding presence on the road. Key design elements include:

Distinctive square-shaped headlights, accentuated by four-point LED DRLs
Unique eight double light strips on the grille
Rear tail lamps that echo the headlamp design
Striking 19-inch petal-shaped alloy wheels

Engineered for Performance

Under the hood, the Jetour T1 launches with a robust 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine, delivering 252 hp and 390 Nm of torque. Unlike the T2, which employs a 7-speed DCT, the T1 debuts an advanced 8-speed gearbox, promising enhanced driving dynamics.

By late 2025, the T1 will gain an innovative 1.5-liter plug-in hybrid powertrain. This setup integrates a 154 hp turbocharged petrol engine with electric motors and a 26.7 kWh battery, achieving an impressive pure-electric range of 150 km. With a combined driving range of up to 1,300 km, this powertrain positions the T1 as a compelling choice for eco-conscious adventurers.

Technology Meets Comfort
