ملخص الأخبار: Jetour has presented the G700 TopFire in Riyadh ahead of its planned UAE arrival through Elite Group Holding. The premium SUV combines a petrol engine and two electric motors with factory-installed upgrades for sand, mountain routes and long-distance touring.
Jetour is preparing to introduce the G700 TopFire in the UAE after unveiling the factory-customized off-road SUV at a regional event in Riyadh.
The model is a more adventure-focused version of the G700 and was developed with off-road specialist TopFire. Elite Group Holding, Jetour’s exclusive UAE partner, will be responsible for its local introduction. (جلف نيوز)
What makes the TopFire different?
Unlike an SUV modified by an independent workshop after purchase, the TopFire’s changes have been incorporated into the vehicle’s development and manufacturing process.
The factory upgrades include:
- A dedicated off-road chassis
- Increased ground clearance
- A wider wheel track
- Adjustable nitrogen shock absorbers
- Forged alloy wheels
- All-terrain tires
- Reinforced front and rear bumpers
- Wider fenders and strengthened side steps
- A functional bonnet intake
- A multifunction roof rack
This approach may appeal to buyers who want additional off-road capability while keeping the vehicle, modifications and warranty arrangements within one manufacturer-supported package.
Plug-in hybrid system produces 904 horsepower
The G700 TopFire uses Jetour’s iDM-Off Road plug-in hybrid system, combining a 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine with two electric motors and electric all-wheel drive.
Regional launch information quotes a combined output of 904 horsepower and 1,135Nm of torque. The powertrain is supported by three intelligent differential locks intended to maintain traction when individual wheels lose grip.
The SUV also includes Hill Descent Control and selectable off-road settings that can adjust the vehicle’s responses for different surfaces.
Final UAE-market specifications should nevertheless be checked when the model officially goes on sale, as equipment and performance figures can vary between markets.
Designed for sand, rocks and steep terrain
The G700 TopFire has a claimed 35-degree approach angle, 29-degree departure angle and 24-degree breakover angle. These measurements indicate how sharply the vehicle can approach, cross and leave an obstacle without its body contacting the ground.
Jetour also quotes a maximum wading depth of 950mm. Drivers should treat this as a technical maximum rather than permission to enter unknown floodwater or wadis, where depth, current and surface conditions can change quickly.
Its adjustable nitrogen shock absorbers offer eight compression settings, allowing the suspension to be configured for greater control on difficult terrain or increased comfort during regular road driving.
Forged 20-inch wheels are fitted with 305/55 all-terrain tires. Jetour says the wheels are approximately 20% lighter than conventional cast alternatives while maintaining the strength required for rough surfaces.
Roof rack supports touring equipment
The one-piece roof rack can reportedly carry up to 100kg while the vehicle is moving and 300kg when stationary.
This could support camping equipment or a rooftop tent, subject to the manufacturer’s installation and weight-distribution requirements. Removable crossbars can be stored in the luggage area to reduce the vehicle’s height when entering covered parking.
Drivers should still confirm the complete vehicle height before using parking garages, particularly when accessories remain fitted.
Premium interior and driver assistance
Despite its rugged exterior equipment, Jetour is positioning the TopFire as a premium everyday SUV rather than a specialised competition vehicle.
The official UAE model page lists a 35.4-inch panoramic display, Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, wireless charging, three-zone climate control and power-adjustable seating.
Safety and assistance equipment includes a 360-degree camera, adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assistance, forward-collision warning, blind-spot detection and traffic-jam assistance. (Jetour UAE)
Drivers remain responsible for controlling the vehicle, even when assistance systems are active.
When will the G700 TopFire arrive in the UAE?
Jetour UAE currently lists the G700 TopFire as “coming soon” and is accepting customer enquiries.
A confirmed showroom-launch date, UAE price, trim structure and delivery schedule have not yet been published. Buyers should also wait for confirmation of the locally applicable warranty, service package, battery coverage and final homologated specifications.
The model will enter a competitive UAE market where manufacturers are increasingly offering factory-developed off-road SUVs and electrified powertrains in the same vehicle.
