For Jetour, its’ like a ‘kiss from a rose’ as the brand awareness keeps multiplying, be it locally or internationally

JETOUR’s global sales reached 622 590 units last year, a 9.5% year-on-year increase and setting a new annual record.

Since first launching seven years ago, this SUV brand has sold more than 2.15 million units globally across 2 000 sales and service outlets in more than 100 markets and regions.

Active across the Middle East, Central and South America, Africa, Asia-Pacific and Europe, with a growing sales and service network that supports its international footprint, Jetour is now leveraging this reputation to drive its global expansion.

In 2025, Jetour sold over 70 000 units in the Middle East, representing a year-on-year surge of over 80%, ranking No. 1 among Chinese brands. The T-Series was also the top light off-road SUV in key markets including UAE, Qatar, and Kuwait.

Locally in South Africa, December 2025 marked Jetour’s highest monthly sales to date, with 1 371 vehicles sold, driven by the growing popularity of the Dashing and X70 Plus models and the launch of the much-anticipated new T-Series.

Jetour notably broke into the top 10 best-selling car brands in South Africa for December 2025.

The Jetour T1 and T2, priced from R 514 900 and R 569 900 respectively, deliver affordable luxury, striking design, premium features, and the peace of mind that comes with reliable parts availability and top-tier customer service.

Since launching in September 2024, Jetour has grown its dealer network to over 50 dealerships in South Africa, supported by 212 approved panel beaters covering all provinces. The brand is also expanding into Mozambique, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.

In South Africa, Jetour’s Midrand warehouse was fully stocked and ready even before the launch of its first vehicle.

Early last year saw the brand holding R75 million worth of stock in the warehouse and R25 million on order, ensuring that dealers and customers have timely access to parts whenever needed.

Jetour’s parts supply performance remains exceptional, with a first-fill rate of 98.8% and a first pick accuracy of 99.6% achieved in 2025. Additional parts are now also readily available for the new T-Series. 

In the Middle East, the brand has established a 12 000 m² regional parts warehouse, with a parts fulfillment rate expected to reach 95% by 2026.

Jetour’s combination of reliable products and service has earned trust from both users and industry alike, with the brand being awarded the Most Trusted Brand Award in Oman, Gold Status rating in the NADA Dealer Satisfaction Index (DSI) Survey in South Africa, the Best Value 7-Seater SUV accolade for the Jetour X70 Plus on Malaysian platforms Carlist.my and WapCar.my and the Jetour T1 being named the Autocosmos Recommended Model Award in Chile

Looking forward, Jetour remains committed to its Travel+ strategy, integrating travel lifestyles with automotive products and experiences, while strengthening product competitiveness and customer trust worldwide.

In 2026, Jetour will continue to forge stronger bonds with global markets and reshape mobility experiences both worldwide and locally, along with an increased presence and new model variants entering the market in South Africa.
