Jetour Malaysia has introduced the a new Jetour Dashing variant called the Dark Warrior Limited Edition. As its moniker suggests, the version – which is based on the high-spec Prime – gets a matte black exterior finish and a series of design-focused enhancements.
These consist of blacked-out Jetour branding at the front and rear of the car, and the Dashing emblem as well as the 19-inch Phantom Spec alloy wheels (wrapped with 235/55 tyres) get the same treatment. Rounding off the visual enhancements are red brake calipers to provide contrast.
Other than that, everything on the locally-assembled SUV is familiar from before. Measuring in at 4,590 mm long,1,900 mm wide and 1,685 mm tall, with a 2,720 mm wheelbase, the Dashing – which is underpinned by the automaker’s Kunlun platform – sits between a Honda CR-V (4,691 mm) and Toyota Corolla Cross (4,460 mm) in terms of size. Other relevant numbers include a ground clearance of 160 mm and a boot size of 486 litres with the rear seats up, and 977 litres with the units folded down.
There’s no change to the mechanicals, and so the 1.5 litre turbocharged inline-four petrol engine continues to offer 156 PS (154 hp) at 5,500 rpm and 230 Nm of torque from 1,750 rpm to 4,000 rpm. Drive is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed dual-clutch transmission, with three drive modes (Economy, Comfort, Sport) to pick from.
The kit count also remains unchanged, and you’ll find LED matrix headlights, LED DRLs, sequential rear turn signals, rain sensing wipers and a wide-angle panoramic sunroof, among others, as per the Prime’s specifications.
Interior equipment includes a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen placed together to present an integrated widescreen display, along with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay support. a 50 watt wireless fast charger, a six-way power-adjustable driver seat and ambient lighting.
Safety equipment includes six airbags, a tyre pressure monitoring system, a 360-degree around-view monitor and 180-degree transparent underbody view, while driving assistance kit includes an ADAS suite that contains items such as lane change warning, blind spot detection, lane change warning and rear cross traffic alert. As before, there is still no autonomous emergency braking feature.
The Jetour Dashing Dark Warrior Limited Edition is priced at RM117,200, on-the-road without insurance, which is identical to the Prime when the SUV was introduced here last year. As when it was launched, the SUV comes with a seven-year/150,000 km vehicle warranty and a 10-year/1,000,000 km engine warranty, as well as a five-time free labour/parts service.
