Verdict
At RM129,800, the Jetour T1 costs RM800 more than the RM129,000 Leapmotor C10, but the choice is really petrol versus EV. The T1 brings a 70-litre tank, a much larger 574-litre boot and RM120 annual road tax. The C10 counters with a 215 hp, 320 Nm rear motor, 69.9 kWh battery and 420 km EV range, plus 11 kW AC and 84 kW DC charging. For a home-charging owner, the Leapmotor is the more powerful, better-equipped D-segment SUV; the Jetour suits buyers needing easier long-distance refuelling and luggage room.
Pick the Jetour T1 if a 574-litre boot, 70-litre petrol tank, space-saver spare and lower RM120 road tax matter more than EV running.
Pick the Leapmotor C10 if you can charge regularly and want 215 hp, 320 Nm, 420 km of EV range and richer cabin equipment for RM800 less.
