Chinese brand Jetour has updated its G700 plug-in hybrid SUV a year after launch, ahead of bringing it to Australia.
Jetour has updated its G700 plug-in hybrid SUV just a year after it launched in China, before bringing the vehicle to Australia. The Chinese brand, part of the Chery Group, plans to compete in the growing market for large hybrid off-road SUVs in Australia alongside models such as the Denza B8, GWM Tank 500 PHEV, and upcoming Geely Battleship 700.
The updated G700 features a revised grille, new wheel designs, and body-coloured bumpers and side skirts, giving it a more refined appearance. Some design changes were previewed on a special model at the Beijing motor show in April. Newly available is Huawei's Qiankun Intelligent Driving ADS 5 active safety and driver-assist technology, though the vehicle's mechanicals remain unchanged.
The G700 uses a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine producing 155kW, combined with front and rear electric motors. Total system outputs are 665kW and 1135Nm. It comes with three differential locks, full-time four-wheel drive and selectable off-road modes. In China, it is available with batteries providing electric-only ranges of 150km or 260km respectively, and features vehicle-to-load capability to power small electrical appliances.
