EXTERIOR
When it comes to nailing road presence, Jetour holds the record, and the X70 PLUS is not an exception. Nairobians love gorgeous stuff that draws attention from every angle, and the X70 PLUS has come in to do exactly that.
The front fascia is quite bold, perfectly complemented by the massive grille flanked by angular LED headlights and daytime running lights. The flowing animation on the front-end when unlocking the car is the icing on the cake. Just because of the looks, you will be forgiven for thinking that it is a very expensive car, but no, it is more affordable compared to the Mazda CX-8.
Stay with me. The side profile is characterized by sharp contours for improved aerodynamics. Chrome window surrounds inject a distinctive look on the X70 PLUS as the pronounced wheel arches house 19-inch alloy wheels, improving the overall appearance of the vehicle.
The premium theme does not end on the side profile; it continues all the way to the rear, where you are wowed by a full-width LED lightbar with water-flow animation. A roof spoiler is present, lending it a sporty look. The tailgate is electric, and the dual exhaust outlets add an aggressive touch on the rear while simultaneously maintaining a clean and uncluttered appearance.
INTERIOR & TECHNOLOGY
The 2025 Jetour X70 PLUS is indeed a serious disruptor that came to reign supreme. This is vindicated the moment you step into the cabin. The kind of organization and digitization in the interior remains a benchmark for other cars.
At the center of the dashboard sits a continuous glass panel housing a dual 10.25-inch screen – one for the central infotainment system and the other for the driver’s digital instrument cluster.
The seats are very comfy and are finished in black synthetic leather with contrasting red stitching for a distinctive look. Detail is very important in this car, and that is the reason it is taking over the Kenyan market. The seats feature heating and ventilation functions.
The first and second rows have plenty of legroom and headroom. The third row is only ideal for kids owing to its limited space. To increase the space in the boot, the third row seats can be reclined.
A panoramic sunroof bathes the cabin with natural light, enhancing tranquility and a serene atmosphere. If you are caught up in a traffic jam on Ngong Road, you have nothing to worry about because the amenities inside this car are fulfilling and relaxes your mind and body after a long, busy day. You can peacefully enjoy your rhumba mix thanks to a premium sound system that delivers an immersive audio quality.
PERFORMANCE: How Does it Handle Kenyan Roads?
The 2025 Jetour X70 PLUS’s overall driving character is unapologetically comfort-first. The X70 PLUS shines the best when driven in urban areas like Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret, or Nakuru. The suspension system is finely tuned to absorb road imperfections.
With a ground clearance of 8.2 inches, the 2025 X70 PLUS can easily clear moderate inclined and reclined surfaces without damaging its body components. The steering wheel is telescopic and power-assisted, making navigation in tight parking spots or weaving through slow-moving traffic effortless. Those who frequent Thika Road will find this fulfilling.

The 1.5 L Turbocharged engine under the hood produces 156 horsepower and 230 NM of torque, which is ideal for a car of its size. You have access to different driving modes to match your preference, whether you want to save fuel or you want to test its limits when driving on the open Southern bypass.
Since it is a front-wheel drive (FWD), you might want to consider before driving it deep into your upcountry where the roads are uneven and muddy because it might struggle with traction.
