Jetour Growing Popularity

Jetour, part of the Chery Group, has quickly risen in global markets, especially in the UAE and GCC. The UAE debut of the Jetour T2 in January 2024 was a game-changer, making it one of the top-selling Chinese SUVs in the region.

In April 2024, Jetour unveiled the updated T2 and the new T1 at a special event in China. The brand also showcased the T5 concept, a rugged off-road SUV, and teased the T7.

On January 20, 2025, Jetour unveiled a video highlighting the T7's impressive capabilities.

The video showed the SUV doing a tank turn and moving on water at speeds of up to 8.5 km/h, outpacing its rival, the BYD Yangwang U8. On January 22, 2025, Jetour officially launched the T7 under its new luxury sub-brand in China, Zongheng.

The Jetour T7 is not only about power; it’s built for tough off-road environments. Its four motors can individually drive each wheel, allowing it to power the wheels with the most grip. With air suspension, the SUV's ground clearance can be adjusted from 150mm to an impressive 350mm, enhancing its off-road performance.

As mentioned before, the Jetour Shanhai T7 from last year has now been launched as the Jetour Zongheng G700. Zongheng is a new luxury off-road SUV sub-brand from Jetour, specifically for the Chinese market.

On January 22, 2025, Jetour introduced three new models under the Zongheng brand:

  • Jetour Zongheng G700: Built on the Jetour Shanhai T7 concept, which was digitally revealed in 2024.
  • Jetour Zongheng F700: A pickup-truck version of the G700, with the same features and powertrain options.
  • Jetour Zongheng G900: The flagship SUV of the Zongheng brand, the largest of the three, and exclusively equipped with the 1,572hp EREV powertrain.

Jetour T7 In The UAE

With Jetour’s increasing success in the UAE, especially with the T1 and T2, it’s highly likely the T7 will soon be available in the region. The UAE market has a high demand for luxury SUVs, making the T7 a great match. While its arrival could be in 2025 or 2026, anticipation for Jetour’s most advanced SUV could start to grow soon.

Verdict

Jetour T7 represents a bold leap forward in off-road luxury SUVs, combining cutting-edge technology, impressive powertrains, and innovative features like water-driving capabilities. With its rugged design, powerful performance, and advanced charging and suspension systems, it is poised to become a game-changer in the automotive industry.

As Jetour expands its presence in the UAE and other global markets, the T7 is set to make a significant impact, meeting the growing demand for luxury off-road vehicles. The future looks exciting for Jetour as it continues to redefine the SUV experience.
