2025 Jetour T2

Jetour T2

Jetour’s T2 jumps straight into the thick of SA’s cutthroat mid-size SUV ring, rubbing shoulders with the Haval Jolion, Chery Tiggo 7 Pro, and MG ZS — all names that have carved out a loyal following among value-hunters. Two turbo petrol motors on offer: the 1.5T for the entry Aspire, and a punchier 2.0T in the Xplora, Odyssey, and the moody Dark Night flagship. Every version runs a 7-speed dual-clutch, but only the 2.0T models score 4WD, which isn’t something you’ll find in the MG ZS at these numbers. On paper at least, Jetour is keeping its pricing tight: R569,900 to R789,900 covers all 22 listings, but the sweet spot sits near R647,000, where Xplora lives. That makes sense — buyers want kit, but they’re not paying for badges or frills. Fifteen of those are new, and with Jetour barely out the starting blocks in Mzansi, it’s a telling sign that the brand is still in its “proving itself” phase. Aspire’s your bread-and-butter: nine listings sit between R569,900 and R655,385, all FWD, all 1.5T, and exactly what city commuters and Uber types are after. Xplora’s where you get the real differentiator — seven choices, 2.0T grunt, and 4WD between R639,900 and R739,995. Odyssey throws in more garnish at R679,900 to R769,900, while the lone Dark Night at R789,900 is for those who want to stand out, even if nobody’s quite sure what makes it “dark.” Used? Not really — those so-called pre-owned units average just 317 km and every one is 2026-registered, so you’re basically buying a demo. What sets the T2 apart is that 4WD at a sticker MG can’t touch, and in a segment where numbers matter more than nostalgia, that’s the point.
