The Jetour X70, a Crossover Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV), introduced in 2018, takes pride of place as the first product of the Jetour brand.
It was developed under the iPeL (intelligent platform of e-network and lightweight) chassis and aimed at the growing demand for spacious family SUVs.
The X70 has since become a key model in the Jetour lineup, with subsequent editions and variants.
