Jetour Dashing Comfort vs Prime
Verdict
The Jetour Dashing Comfort at RM106,800 and Jetour Dashing Prime at RM116,800 are mechanically the same C-segment SUV: 1.5-litre petrol engine, 154 hp, 230 Nm, wet dual-clutch automatic and front-wheel drive. Size, boot space, fuel tank, road tax and warranty are identical too. The RM10,000 gap clearly buys extra passive safety, with the Prime getting 6 airbags against the Comfort’s 4. If that matters to your family, pay up. If not, the Comfort gives away no performance or practicality on paper.
Pick the Jetour Dashing Comfort if you want the same 154 hp drivetrain, 486-litre boot and 7-year warranty for RM10,000 less.
Pick the Jetour Dashing Prime if you want 6 airbags instead of 4 and are happy paying extra without gaining more power, space or drivetrain hardware.
