Facelifted 2027 Jetour T2 Revealed With Cleaner Looks, Improved Tech

The 2027 Jetour T2 has been revealed in China at the recent Chengdu Motor Show, giving it a mid-cycle facelift to keep things fresh. Order books for this vehicle are already open in China, and as one of the primary sales drivers of Jetour Auto Philippines, we’re confident that a lot of customers and fans are eagerly waiting for its arrival.

For now, marvel at its cleaner design, which begins with the redesigned front fascia. Gone are the pre-facelift model’s matte black bumpers that protrude from the body. In its place is a body-color bumper that’s flush with the front fascia. The front grille has also been redesigned with an LED light bar, and this is flanked by LED headlights with circular LED daytime running lights. Meanwhile, the Jetour wordmark is now placed on the hood for a cleaner front end.

The same treatment of cleaning up its design has also been applied to its side profile. The black cladding at the wheel arches and rear bumper has been ditched in favor of body-colored ones. The wheel designs are also sleeker, while the rear spare tire cover also doubles as storage for the charging cable.

Moving inside the 2027 Jetour T2, and you’ll be greeted by an interior that likewise focuses on refinement and sleekness instead of ruggedness. The vertical aircon vents at the sides are now flush into the dashboard, while to everyone’s surprise, Jetour has added physical climate controls below the large infotainment touchscreen. There is also a drive mode selector, plus an X-Mode (Subaru would probably want to have a word with Jetour) button for the XWD all-wheel drive (AWD) system.

Other interior highlights include “12-layer comfort seats”, which feature eight-point massaging and 10-way power adjustment for the front occupants. There’s also a 23-speaker sound system and the ability to turn all seats into a two-meter-long bed.

The 2027 Jetour T2 also has new engine choices. For those who still prefer their T2 without electrification, a 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder is now standard. Its power output, however, has not yet been revealed, but this engine now has an eight-speed automatic. Meanwhile, the plug-in hybrid 1.5-liter turbo four-cylinder and dual electric motors called i-DM have seen a massive power jump to 782 horsepower and 835 Nm of torque. The total driving range is 1,400 kilometers, while its pure electric CLTC-rated range of 245 kilometers is impressive indeed.

The 2027 Jetour T2 has a likely chance of arriving in the Philippines next year through its Philippine distributor, United Asia Automotive Group, Inc. Will you wait for its arrival, or are you still clinging to the current model?
