Verdict

At RM156,800, the Jetour T2 undercuts the RM169,388 Peugeot 3008 by RM12,588. That lower money gets 241 hp, 375 Nm, all-wheel drive, auto emergency braking, a 70-litre tank and a seven-year warranty, against the Peugeot’s 165 hp, 240 Nm, front-wheel drive, 53-litre tank and five-year warranty.

The Jetour is the muscle and size play; the Peugeot is tidier to place.
