Overview
The Jetour VT9 is a D-segment, seven-seat SUV for buyers who need three rows without moving into the pricier end of the class. Launched in 2025, it uses a 1.5 litre turbo petrol engine with a wet dual-clutch automatic, and starts from RM119,350 in Comfort form.
VT9 in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the VT9 carries on unchanged as Jetour’s seven-seat D-SUV range, with Comfort and Prime variants. The latest owner-facing update is the Jetour Malaysia Club for Dashing and VT9 owners, while the product itself follows the 2025 Malaysian launch and the move to CKD assembly in Tampoi, Johor. Both variants keep the 1.5 litre turbo petrol engine and six-speed wet dual-clutch automatic.

Which variant to buy
The Comfort costs RM119,350 and the Prime costs RM124,350. Both use the same 1,498 cc petrol engine, 154 hp output, wet dual-clutch automatic and seven-seat layout, so the RM5,000 gap is not buying more power, a different gearbox or extra seats. Start with the Comfort; pay more for the Prime only if its equipment and cabin trim differences matter after checking the showroom spec sheet.

Verdict
The VT9’s pitch is simple: seven seats, D-segment size and a sub-RM125k ceiling. It is not the cheapest in its class, because the Proton X90 starts lower at RM106,800, but it sits below the Chery Tiggo 8’s RM159,800 entry price and just under the Leapmotor C10’s RM125,000 start. With identical mechanicals across Comfort and Prime, the showroom equipment list matters.
