Jetour G700 posts 904‑HP claim

Jetour’s G700 looks like one of those giant boxy off-road SUVs built to shout toughness from three lanes away. But the thing making people stop isn’t the shape. It’s the number — 904 hp. The catch is that this is not a new pure EV at all. Jetour’s own current spec pages show the G700 as a plug-in hybrid flagship, and that makes the claim more interesting, not less. (jetourglobal.com) ### So what actually is the G700? The G700 is Jetour’s flagship body-on-frame off-road SUV — basically the brand’s attempt to move upmarket and play in the same visual neighborhood as the Land Cruiser, Defender, and China’s growing crop of luxury “square-box” SUVs. Jetour’s global site frames it as the lead model in its G series, aimed at premium off-road buyers rather than the brand’s cheaper family-SUV base. (jetourglobal.com) ### Is the 904-hp number real? Jetour is publishing that number itself, yes. The global spec page breaks the system into a 211 Ps 2.0-liter turbo engine and dual motors rated at 694 Ps combined, with 0-100 km/h in 4.6 seconds. Jetour Qatar’s spec page goes even more directly and lists maximum power at 904 hp and torque at 1,135 Nm. That makes the headline claim an official marketing figure, not just social-media inflation. (jetourglobal.com) ### Wait — why are the numbers a little messy? Because Jetour mixes hp, Ps, and kW across markets. On one page, the engine and motors are listed separately in metric horsepower, while another page converts the full system to 665 kW and 904 hp. If you’ve watched Chinese car launches lately, this happens a lot — brands bounce between unit systems and rounded totals. The broad point still(jetourglobal.com)d bruiser. (jetourglobal.com) ### Why make a 900-hp off-roader? Because the Chinese premium SUV market has turned into a spec war. Buyers still want the old off-road signals — ladder frame, locking diffs, wading depth, towing. But brands also want the instant punch and headline numbers that electrification makes easy. So the product becomes a mash-up: rugged hardware underneath, luxury lounge inside, and supercar-a(jetourglobal.com)perfectly. (jetourglobal.com) ### Is it just about horsepower? Not really. Jetour is bundling the power number with a whole “do everything” pitch — 800V architecture, up to 170 kW DC charging, up to 1,400 km CLTC combined range, 900 mm wading depth on its official page, and 2,500 kg towing. That’s the real sales trick. The G700 is being sold as one vehicle that can do desert-truck stuff, long-distance hybrid stuff, and luxury-family-hauler stuff all at once. (jetourglobal.com) ### Is this a brand-new launch? Not exactly. The G700 was already launched in China in October 2025 and then shown globally in Dubai in November 2025. What’s new now is the clearer spread of the 904-hp positioning across Jetour’s official regional materials and the wider attention that number is getting as the model reaches more export markets.

Jetour is saying the premium off-road SUV no longer has to choose between brute-force image and electrified excess. In China’s market, turns out, the winning pitch is both. (jetourglobal.com)
