Car Buyer's Guide

Overview

The Jetour Dashing is a C-segment, five-seat petrol SUV for buyers wanting a front-wheel-drive family crossover with a 1.5-litre turbo engine and wet dual-clutch automatic. The Mk1 generation launches in Malaysia in 2025, with the standard range starting from RM106,800. It is aimed at shoppers cross-shopping similarly priced C-segment SUVs rather than seven-seat alternatives.

Dashing in 2026 — what's new

The Mk1 Dashing continues into 2026, with the latest addition being the Dark Warrior Limited Edition. It brings a matte black exterior, a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine rated at 156 PS and 230 Nm, and a RM117,000 price. The regular Malaysian line-up remains the Comfort and Prime, both using a 1,498 cc, 154 hp petrol engine, front-wheel drive and a wet dual-clutch automatic.

Which variant to buy

Most buyers should start with the RM106,800 Comfort. It has the same 1,498 cc 154 hp petrol engine, front-wheel drive, wet dual-clutch automatic and five-seat layout as the RM116,800 Prime, so the RM10,000 gap is not buying more power, driven wheels or seats. On paper, you are paying for trim rather than mechanicals; check the equipment list before stepping up to Prime. The Comfort also matches the Proton X70’s RM106,800 entry price.

Jetour Dashing buyer's guides & reviews

Verdict

The Dashing is a straightforward C-segment SUV choice: five seats, 154 hp, front-wheel drive and a wet dual-clutch gearbox. Its entry price sits RM3,000 above the Proton eMas 7, matches the Proton X70 and is RM1,000 below the Leapmotor B10. The standard variants share their core mechanical package, so equipment and the cabin experience should decide the purchase rather than the Prime badge alone.
