The Jetour T2 i-DM pairs a 1.5-litre turbocharged plug-in hybrid powertrain with genuine off-road styling and a party trick aimed squarely at overlanders: a built-in 3.3 kW power outlet that can run a coffee machine or campsite gear straight off the car's battery. In its UAE-market tune, the i-DM hybrid makes a combined 600 hp and 910 Nm of torque — a genuinely serious number for a mid-size PHEV SUV, and one confirmed both by regional pricing sources and the model's own marketing. Priced from about AED 159,000 (~$43,300) in the UAE, the T2 i-DM sits as the hybrid flagship of Jetour's wider T2 lineup, which also includes lower-powered 2.0T petrol-only trims.
Performance & Specs
The T2 i-DM combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine with dual electric motors through a dedicated hybrid transmission. In the UAE-market tune covered by this article's source video (whose title explicitly advertises "600 HORSEPOWER"), the combined system makes 600 hp and 910 Nm of torque, confirmed by regional UAE pricing sources. Important regional note: other export markets receive a noticeably lower-powered tune of the same nameplate — sources covering South Africa, Pakistan and Indonesia report a combined 375 hp and 610 Nm from the same basic 1.5T + dual-motor layout. If you're shopping this car outside the UAE, confirm which tune your market actually sells before assuming the 600 hp figure applies. The hybrid system returns approximately 18.5 km/L, versus 13.9 km/L for T2's petrol-only variants.

At 4,785 mm long on a 2,800 mm wheelbase, the T2 i-DM is a mid-size off-road-styled SUV with 580 litres of cargo space — enough, per the source video, for rear passengers to fold flat and sleep inside during camping trips, with the panoramic glass roof letting occupants stargaze from the back seat.

Charging & Battery
Battery capacity is reported at either 18.4 kWh or 26.7 kWh depending on export market, with EV-only range up to around 139 km on the larger pack and combined range over 1,000 km. We were not able to independently confirm which battery size ships with the higher-powered UAE i-DM tune specifically, so we're presenting both figures rather than guessing.

Design & Interior
The T2's boxy, retro-off-roader styling — complete with a slatted "JETOUR" grille badge and round LED headlights — echoes the brand's other rugged models like the G700. Content creator Sergi Galiano, who tested the car for this article's source video, was drawn to the styling as soon as he saw it. Inside, the cabin balances off-road-ready durability with genuine camping comfort: fold-flat rear seats, a panoramic glass roof, and the built-in 3.3kW power outlet for running small appliances away from any charging infrastructure.
Pricing & Availability
In the UAE, the T2 lineup spans petrol-only 2.0T Luxury (AED 144,000-147,000) and Luxury Plus (AED 179,000-185,000) trims alongside the hybrid i-DM version covered here, priced at AED 159,000-167,000 (about $43,300-$45,500). Jetour is already selling the T2 i-DM in multiple international markets, though with meaningfully different powertrain tunes by region — buyers should confirm local specifications rather than assuming UAE figures apply everywhere. A newer "All-New T2 2027" model was also teased by Jetour in July 2026, suggesting a refresh may be on the way; that hasn't been covered in this article since it's a separate, not-yet-detailed model.
How It Compares
Within Jetour's own lineup, the T2 i-DM slots in as a smaller, cheaper alternative to the flagship G700, giving up some power and range for a meaningfully lower price and a more compact footprint. Against the GWM Cannon Alpha PHEV, the UAE-spec T2 i-DM's 600 hp is nearly 50% more power for a similar price point — though that comparison flips if you're shopping the lower-powered 375 hp export tune sold elsewhere.
- 600 hp and 910 Nm (UAE-spec) is a huge number for a mid-size PHEV SUV at this price
- Genuine camping features: 3.3kW power outlet, fold-flat sleeping space, panoramic roof
- ~18.5 km/L fuel economy meaningfully beats the petrol-only T2 variants
- Priced well under Jetour's own G700 flagship
- Power output varies dramatically by export market (600 hp UAE vs 375 hp elsewhere) — confirm your local spec
- Battery capacity and EV-only range for the UAE-spec car specifically aren't independently confirmed
The Jetour T2 i-DM is a compelling package on paper — in its UAE tune, 600 hp from a mid-size PHEV SUV with genuine camping features is a rare combination at this price. The catch is that "T2 i-DM" doesn't mean the same thing everywhere Jetour sells it, so shoppers outside the UAE should verify their region's actual power figures before getting excited about the headline number.
