Verdict
The RM13,000-cheaper Jetour T2 is the practical choice if you need SUV access, five doors and its much larger 580-litre boot. Its 241 hp, 375 Nm turbo petrol drivetrain and all-wheel drive suit buyers who do not want to plan around charging. The GWM Ora 07 answers with a 201 hp, 340 Nm electric motor, 83.5 kWh battery and 640 km NEDC range, plus an 11 kW AC and 88 kW DC charging capability. It is the more focused EV, but its 333-litre boot is a real compromise for family luggage.
Pick the GWM Ora 07 if you want a 640 km NEDC electric sedan with 3.3 kW V2L, a head-up display and massaging ventilated front seats.
Pick the Jetour T2 if you need all-wheel drive, a 580-litre boot and SUV practicality for RM13,000 less.
