Jetour has officially introduced the Dashing SUV to the Malaysian market, offering two variants: the Comfort, priced at RM109,800, and the Prime, at RM116,800. This five-seater SUV positions itself competitively within the C-segment, aiming to attract buyers seeking a blend of style, technology, and value.

Jetour Dashing Comfort – RM109,800
Jetour Dashing Prime – RM116,800

The Jetour Dashing measures 4,590 mm in length, 1,900 mm in width, and 1,685 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,720 mm. These dimensions place it between the Toyota Corolla Cross and Honda CR-V, offering a spacious cabin while maintaining manageable proportions for urban driving. The exterior features sharp lines, a prominent grille, and full LED lighting, contributing to a contemporary aesthetic.

Under the hood, both variants are equipped with a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine, delivering 156 PS at 5,500 rpm and 230 Nm of torque between 1,750 and 4,000 rpm. Power is transmitted to the front wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch transmission. Drivers can select from three driving modes: Economy, Comfort, and Sport, to tailor the driving experience to their preferences.

Among the standard kit that comes with the car are:

LED headlamps
LED daytime running lights
LED taillights
Powered tailgate

In addition to the features found in the Comfort variant, the Prime offers:

The Dashing is available for viewing and test drives at Jetour dealerships nationwide, with deliveries expected to commence shortly. All Jetour Dashing sold in Malaysia comes with a 5 times free service package that covers both parts and labour, 7 years or 150,000 km vehicle warranty and 10 years or 1,000,000 km engine warranty. For the first 500 customers, Jetour is offering a RM2000 rebate which brings the starting price down to RM107,800.

The Jetour Dashing presents a strong value proposition for buyers seeking a modern, well-equipped SUV that breaks away from the usual suspects. With sharp looks, a refined interior, and solid performance credentials, it arrives ready to challenge segment stalwarts, at a fraction of the cost.

Jetour may be a new name in the Malaysian market, but with the affiliation of their parent company Chery, the Dashing is predicted to have a smooth transition into the local market.
