Award-Winning Jetour Dashing Redefines Nigeria’s Compact SUV Segment
Award-Winning Jetour Dashing Redefines Nigeria’s Compact SUV Segment
As competition intensifies in Nigeria’s compact SUV segment, the Jetour Dashing is fast asserting itself as a category pacesetter.
Backed by a 2025 Car of the Year award, the five-seater SUV has moved beyond novelty status, gaining recognition among urban commuters and highway drivers alike.
Visually, the Dashing makes a confident impression as its wide grille, sculpted body lines and sleek LED lighting create a bold road presence that rivals more premium crossovers.
The aerodynamic profile and assertive front fascia ensure it stands out on both city streets and open highways.
Inside, the SUV delivers a modern, well-appointed cabin. A panoramic sunroof enhances the sense of space, while a clean, tech-focused dashboard is anchored by a 15.6-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, providing seamless connectivity and intuitive control.
Performance is another strong suit. According to Jetour Nigeria, the Dashing is offered with 1.5-litre and 1.6-litre turbocharged engine options, delivering up to 145kW and 290Nm of torque. Mated to six- or seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions, the powertrain offers smooth acceleration, efficient cruising and confident overtaking, with outputs reaching up to 197hp.
Ride quality is supported by selectable drive modes—Eco, Normal and Sport—allowing drivers to adapt easily to varying road conditions.
The dual-clutch transmission ensures smooth gear changes, making the SUV suitable for daily commuting as well as extended road trips.
Safety features are comprehensive, as the
Dashing comes with front and rear airbags, advanced driver-assistance systems such as automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning, blind-spot detection and collision alerts.
A 360-degree surround-view camera with 2D and 3D displays, supported by a 540-degree parking sensor system, enhances parking and low-speed manoeuvrability. Electronic parking brake, auto-hold and automatic door locking further add to driver confidence.
Comfort and convenience are equally well covered, with features including wireless charging, smart entry, push-button start, remote engine start and voice command functionality.
Automatic climate control with rear vents and an air purification system improves cabin comfort, while an eight-speaker surround sound system delivers immersive audio.
Power-adjustable front seats with heating, ventilation, memory and lumbar support, along with a power tailgate, add a premium touch.
Backing the product is Jetour Nigeria’s growing aftersales network, offering trained technicians, genuine spare parts and structured maintenance support. This strong aftersales focus, combined with warranty coverage, reinforces buyer confidence.
Rolling on stylish 20-inch alloy wheels, the Jetour Dashing blends design, technology and value. As Jetour continues to expand its footprint in Nigeria, the Dashing is positioning itself as a new benchmark in the compact SUV segment, delivering style, performance and dependable ownership support at a competitive price point.

X90 Plus Leads Jetour’s Abuja Drive for Bigger SUV Market Share
Jetour Nigeria is taking its premium SUV battle to Abuja, with the seven-seater X90 Plus set to headline the Jetour Experience Abuja from September 22 to 24, as the automaker moves to capture a larger share of Nigeria’s fast-growing high-end family SUV market.
The three-day motoring showcase will give prospective buyers, families and auto enthusiasts in the Federal Capital Territory and neighbouring states an opportunity to experience the X90 Plus and other models in the Jetour range through test drives and hands-on demonstrations.
The Abuja showcase follows the success of the brand’s earlier Jetour Experience in Lagos, where strong customer interest, inquiries and sales momentum reportedly encouraged the company to take the initiative to the Federal Capital Territory.
Jetour Nigeria said growing demand from customers in Abuja and neighbouring states was a major factor behind the decision to expand the experience to the northern market.
Positioned as a full-sized family SUV, the X90 Plus is designed for executives and families seeking a combination of space, technology, performance and comfort without the price tag associated with some luxury SUVs.
The model is offered with 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre turbocharged engines paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The powertrain produces up to 254 horsepower and 390Nm of torque.
Inside the cabin, the X90 Plus features a 12.3-inch LCD touchscreen infotainment system, panoramic sunroof, Sony premium audio system and wireless charging.
Its safety and driver-assistance features include a 360-degree panoramic camera, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning and electronic stability systems.
Jetour’s growing profile in Nigeria has also earned the brand recognition from the Nigeria Auto Journalists Association (NAJA), which named it Fastest Growing Auto Brand, while it was also recognised as Auto Brand of the Year at the Nigeria Transport Lecture.
To support its expanding customer base, Jetour Nigeria, the sole authorised distributor, operates through seven accredited dealer partners across the country: Elizade Nigeria Limited, Mandilas Autos, R.T. Briscoe Motors, Germaine Auto Centre, Kojo Motors, Tab Autos Limited and New Era Auto Vehicle Services Limited.
The Abuja Experience is expected to provide Jetour with another platform to engage potential customers and reinforce its position in Nigeria’s increasingly competitive SUV market.
