Jetour Auto Philippines has priced its X70 Lightning i-DM at a competitive P 1.648-million. The carmaker’s second plug-in hybrid and first to offer seven seats, it will compete squarely against the “more cramped” BYD Sealion 6 DM-i (no relation).

The X70 Lightning i-DM will come in four colors: Coral White, Marble Gray, Jade Green, and Pebble Gray. The first two colors will come with a Mocha/Gray interior, while the latter two will have a Burgundy/Black interior.

Based on the X70, the X70 Lightning i-DM is a three-row 7-seater SUV measuring in at 4,785 mm in length, 1,900 mm in width, and 1,720 mm in height. It sports a 2,745 mm wheelbase.

While it shares the X70’s turbocharged 1.5-liter 4-cylinder engine, because it packs dual electric motors, outputs rise to 271 horsepower and 395 Nm of torque, enough for a 0 to 100 km/h time of 7.7 seconds. Moreover, thanks to a 19.34-kWh lithium-ion battery, it’ll have a 110-kilometer all-electric range. Together with a full tank of gas, it goes up to 1,200 kilometers. Meanwhile, charging takes just 25 minutes (20 to 80 percent charge). Transmission duties are handled by a two-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT). Like other PHEVs, it has Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) capability, outputting 6.6 kW.

The X70 Lightning i-DM is a fully-featured mid-sized SUV with a pair of 10.25-inch displays, a dual zone climate control with a 9-inch touchscreen display, a Sony 8-speaker sound system, and a full set of ADAS features including autonomous emergency braking, blind spot detection with rear cross traffic alert, lane keep assist, and a 360-degree camera.

As for warranty, the X70 Lightning has a 6-year or 1-million-kilometer general warranty, an 8-year battery warranty, and 10-year engine warranty.

  1. More affordable than the Dashing DM-I which is already forgotten now due to its steep price

  2. In Cebu, these people handled chery motors. All of a sudden, they switched to jetour. They left Cebu Chery customers with no dealer/casa service. Very irresponsible car sales dealer, you are left wandering after they sold you the car
