We also have a review of the X70 Plus, and in this article, we'll check out the car's performance. The X70 Plus commands a strong front end and even some lovely colours, like Emerald Green, which our test car had. The X70 Plus in South African spec comes with 7 seats, some luxury finishes, and some nifty tech that will surprise the price point. The X70 Plus has the show, but does it have the go?
Jetour X70 Plus Performance
The X70 Plus sports a 1.5-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine that makes 115kW and 230Nm. Peak power is at 5 500 r/min, while the peak torque range is from 1 750-4 000 r/min. Power is sent to the front wheels via a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. We don't have official 0-100 km/h times, but we have a top speed figure of 180 km. The claimed fuel consumption figure is 7.8 L /100km, but we achieved a higher figure. Performance is rather adequate in this application.
