Jetour automobile has made history as the brand that has introduced the highest number of sport utility vehicles (SUVs) in Nigeria in the past three years. It also recorded the highest SUV sales figure in South Africa.
Parading an array of SUVs, the brand has stunned competitors with its best-in-class features, outstanding designs and comfort amenities in all its models.
A statement signed by Kemi Adeola said no new auto brand in the country had ever turned out the number of SUV models Jetour rolled out in less than three years, covering various segments.
“In all, Jetour has more than seven models of SUVs in the Nigerian market, and it is still counting,” she said.
The models are Jetour X50, X70 hybrid, X70, X70 Plus, X90 Plus, Dashing, T2 and T2 hybrid.
The brand initially stormed the market with four models – Jetour X70, X70 Plus, Dashing, and X90 Plus.
It has not relented in churning out new models, the latest this year being the X50, X70 hybrid, T2, and T2 hybrid.
In South Africa, reports show Jetour has maintained the lead in different market segments, beating the likes of Mercedes-Benz and Honda.
The firm officially launched in South Africa in late September 2024, introducing two SUV models: the Jetour Dashing and the Jetour X70 Plus.
Within weeks of the launch, it sold 568 units across its Dashing and X70 Plus models, quickly approaching its year-end target of 1,500 units.
By the end of January 2025, Jetour had sold over 2,000 vehicles in South Africa.
The National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of South Africa’s (Naamsa) latest vehicle sales statistics revealed that Jetour sold 620 passenger cars in May 2025.
This is more than what well-known brands such as Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Mazda, Mitsubishi and Volvo recorded.
“We are excited to mirror Jetour’s worldwide success in South Africa and become the top choice for travel vehicles amongst local customers,” Jetour SA MD, Johnny Fang, said.
