Since its launch at the end of September, the Jet Traveler has sold a total of 24,514 units, which is a consumer recognition for a fledgling market newcomer. In my opinion, there are two things that a short-distance traveler can do to succeed. The first is the ultra-high cost performance of 139,900 yuan, and the second is the diversified product power of Keyan, Keyue, Kecheng and Keye.
Equipped with the XWD fully automatic intelligent four-wheel drive system, how about the off-road ability of the Jet Traveler?
The reason why the Jet Traveler can be called a touring off-road SUV is that it is equipped with an XWD fully automatic intelligent four-wheel drive system. Careful friends may have discovered that the four-wheel drive system equipped with the Jet Traveler is different from the four-wheel drive system equipped with traditional urban SUVs, it adopts the world's top BorgWarner's sixth-generation intelligent torque manager + intelligent limited-slip differential lock, automatic switching of four-wheel drive mode, automatic torque distribution of rear wheels, and intelligent distribution of power output.
When driving on paved roads, the vehicle runs in a front-wheel drive position, when the propeller shaft is stationary and the rear wheels are suspended from power, improving fuel economy. When the driver encounters a roadblock or needs to get out of trouble, the vehicle automatically switches to all-wheel drive mode, where power is continuously transmitted to every wheel. This not only enables automatic switching of all-wheel drive modes and intelligent power distribution to provide better grip, but also automatically distributes torque to the rear wheels, so that they can get out of trouble quickly in difficult road conditions.
In addition, in the ad hoc X mode, this system can meet the needs of the car in all scenarios by realizing intelligent switching of 6+X driving modes, and can also cooperate with the intelligent creep mode, making it easy for even off-road beginners to get started, making off-road driving more calm, pure and simple. In terms of passability, the Jet Traveler also has body data that is not inferior to that of a hard-core SUV. Parameters such as 28° approach angle, 30° departure angle, 220mm minimum ground clearance, and 700mm wading depth can meet the off-road needs of the vast majority of users.
Talking about off-road ability without avoiding the powertrain is like having F1 champion Lewis Hamilton run on the track and not be able to play to his full strength. In terms of power, the Jet Voyager 2.0T turbocharged engine has a maximum output of 187 kW (254 hp) and a peak torque of 390 Nm. The powertrain is mated to a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission, and the combined fuel consumption is 8.83L/100km in the WLTC mode.
Thanks to the Kunpeng Power 2.0TGDI and XWD fully automatic intelligent four-wheel drive system, Jietu Travelers have diversified product capabilities that can be urban and wild. In previous test drives, it was able to easily complete the tasks of crossing shell craters, cross axles and wading roads, which can be described as an excellent choice for off-road beginners.
At the end: In my opinion, the Jet Traveler is indeed the new price butcher, and what is more valuable is that it is by no means a "vase" for the sake of appearance. In the 150,000-level SUV product market, who can show stronger product power in terms of power and off-road ability? No, this is the fundamental reason why the Jet Traveler can sell well when it is listed.
