Hardcore off-road in the domestic SUV market has always been a niche presence, from the high-priced Mercedes-Benz Big G, Land Rover Defender to the later Jeep Wrangler, Land Cruiser, hardcore off-road has always been a big toy for "rich people".
With the later domestic Haval H9, its threshold is so low that ordinary consumers can afford to consume, especially with the Great Wall tank 300 hot sale, a main hardcore SUV can actually use a small break, so it seems that the hardcore off-road does not look small.
With the hot sales of the tank 300, but also let the domestic hardcore off-road wind into a new stage, many brands have also begun to lay out hardcore SUVs, such as the Chery Jetway T-X we mentioned today.
At the brand night in early 2022, Jietu released a new hardcore SUV concept car T-X, as the first hardcore SUV of Jietu Automobile, the new car is a new model based on the Kunlun architecture. After the release of the new car, many people began to remember this car and became a topic of conversation for a while.
After months of fermentation, the new car finally had further news. A few days ago, we saw the patent map of the concept car T-X exposed through the network channel, which also means that the new car is not far from the time to market. From the appearance point of view, compared with the previously unveiled concept model, it is expected that the new car will not change much in appearance after mass production.
The patent diagram of the Jietu T-X that was exposed this time has not changed much from the previous concept car, and when you see such a design, you will think of popular hardcore SUVs such as the Tank 300 and the Ford Bronco. Jietu T-X adopts the retro style design popular on the market at present, the overall square, angular, looks more like a toy box, especially the body has adopted heroic muscle lines in many places, making it look more visual impact.
The design of the Jetway T-X is very different from the current family design style, it adopts a hard-hitting design style, the front face shape is very tough, and the powerful lines and a large number of square elements make its visual impact stronger. The blackened oversized rectangular grille with the matrix LED light group on both sides complements the illuminated letter logo logo and the overall recognition is super high.
The high and bulging bonnet at the front of the car, combined with the protruding fenders on both sides, looks quite tough and will be reminiscent of models such as the Ford Bronco and Jeep Free rangers.
On the side of the body, the shape of the new car is also full of hard style, a large number of flat lines of application, so that its sense of strength is very strong, with prominent front and rear wheel eyebrows, large size wheels and off-road tires, Founder is mighty. The four-wheel design close to the four corners further enhances the passability of the whole vehicle.
It is worth mentioning that the new car also adopts a modular roof setting, and the UAV platform is added to the roof of the car, which is very convenient for daily operation. In addition, hidden door handles, roof racks, side pedals, etc. are also present on the Jetto T-X.
Finally, let's take a look at the rear of the car, the tail shape of the Jetto T-X is the same as that of the Land Rover Defender, and the vertical style design is matched with the external spare tire, making the entire rear of the car super eye-catching. The vertical matrix taillights have a strong sense of three-dimensionality and are super recognizable after lighting.
In addition, the new car also features a door opening design, so that we can think of the early Toyota FJ Cruiser, and the spare tire style reminds people of the Cyber version of the tank 300.
Although the patented image of this exposure does not expose the interior, we have seen it before on the night of the Jetway brand. The interior of the Jetway T-X looks very simple and the atmosphere of combat is very strong. The sense of science and technology is good, and the suspension double screen, similar to the racing steering wheel, the knob shift mechanism, etc. have appeared on the new car. Soft materials are used to cover the places within reach, which also shows its sincerity. It is reported that the new car will also provide adaptive recognition, adaptive intelligent timely four-wheel drive, electric four-wheel drive and adaptive adjustment of active suspension and other configurations.
In terms of power, consumers are also most concerned, the Jetway T-X is expected to be equipped with the Chery family's 2.0T turbocharged engine (Kunpeng Power), which has a maximum power of 187kW, a maximum horsepower of 254 horses, and a peak torque of 390 Nm, which is currently used in Tiggo 8PLUS.
In terms of transmission, it will be matched by an 8AT transmission, and a four-wheel drive version will also be available. In addition to the traditional fuel version of the model, the new car is also expected to launch a hybrid version of the PHEV, the biggest feature of this power combination is the super fuel economy, its comprehensive endurance can reach 1000 kilometers, and the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is only 1L. There are rumors on the Internet that this new car will also provide a 3.0T power version of the model, from the current point of view, the author does not think it will be equipped.
Although Chery Jietu officially did not mention much about the Jietu T-X car, it did not mean that this car would not be mass-produced soon. This is also the first hardcore off-road model of the entire Chery Automobile, including Jietu, and its appearance has enriched and perfected the product matrix of the family. As for pricing, the author predicts that its starting price should be around 170,000, but whether it can pose a market threat to the tank 300, the author believes that it will not, after all, the tank brand power is there.
