Jetour T1, T2 finally in South Africa: 'It's got all the bells and whistles'

Many car enthusiasts have been waiting impatiently for the Jetour T1 and T2 models to arrive in the country, and the good news is they are finally here.

"This is one of those 4x4-type cars that looks the part," says Page. "At R514 000 for the T1, and R569 000 for the T2, you get this rugged-looking, modern-looking 4x4 that's kind of like a mini Land Rover."

There are other perks to buying the brand, he says.

"You get a car that's fully loaded from China. It's got all the bells and whistles."

Page says Jetour is really starting to carve a niche in South Africa. It's a brand to watch in the coming months, as he thinks they're going to shake up the market.

As with all newer brands, Jetour is yet to prove itself in terms of customer service, parts availability and the longevity of the vehicles, but Page says it's too soon to tell.

"They are a subsidiary of Chery, which means that at least they've got that sort of backing behind them. What will happen in the future with parts availability? We just don't know."
