PIMS 2024: Jetour X50 B-SUV starts at PHP 888K

Jetour Auto Philippines wants to expand its offering of crossover SUVs. While they already have the X70, X70 Plus, Dashing, and T2, they also want an affordable turbocharged crossover that can slot below the Dashing.

Enter the X50, and it's being previewed by Jetour Auto Philippines at the 2024 Philippine International Motor Show. Revealed alongside the T2 Terminator, the yet-to-be-launched X50 combines aggressive looks with a high-tech and practical cabin in a compact crossover package.

Measuring 4397mm long, 1841mm wide, 1654mm tall, and having a 2601mm wheelbase, it's a tad smaller than the Dashing. It features a distinct front grille that's complemented by a unique front bumper with L-shaped accents on the side. Also worth mentioning are the sleek LED headlights and blacked-out grille. The X50 also comes with LED wraparound taillights, 18-inch alloy wheels, a power sunroof, and black body cladding.

Open the doors and the X50 welcomes occupants into a comfortable yet tech-laden cabin. It has a pair of 10.25-inch displays – one is an instrument panel while the other is a touchscreen infotainment with Apple CarPlay & Android Auto. Leather upholstery comes as standard along with front & rear center armrests.

Other key features present inside the X50 include a push-button start, automatic climate control with rear vents, a 360-degree camera system, 60:40 split rear seats, USB charging/data ports, and intelligent voice control.

Under the hood, the X50 is available with a 1.5L turbocharged four-cylinder engine that produces 156 PS with 230 Nm of torque. Power is then sent to the front wheels via a 6-speed wet-type dual-clutch transmission. There are several drive modes to choose from in the X50; Normal, Eco, and Sport.

The Jetour X50 is slated to go on sale by November 2024 and will be available in the following variants:

X50 Journey - PHP 888,000

X50 Travel - PHP 988,000

X50 Sport - PHP 1,088,000
