The transformation of the T-3 into a commercial vehicle

The Jetour brand introduced the Jetour T-3 SUV with a capacity of 1300 horsepower in China.
Shortly before the opening of the Shanghai Auto Show, the Jetour brand, which is owned by Chery, held another presentation for local specialized media. During the event, the brand once again clarified the main milestones of its further development, but the main thing is that the journalists were shown a new T–3 concept SUV.
The prototype has the same brutal look as another recent Jetour premiere – Traveller (or Traveler, on the one hand). But if the latter outwardly echoes the Ford Bronco and Land Rover Defender, then the show car more evokes thoughts of the GMC Hummer. And yet, as the Chinese media write, the Jetura presented today has a frame structure, whereas the Traveller, despite all its "off–road" image, is an ordinary crossover - with a load-bearing body. By the way, about the forerunner of the Traveler – T-X (then it was renamed T-1) – some Chinese media also reported that it was framed, and a cross got to the conveyor. However, the commercial embodiment of the T-3 should still turn out to be an all-terrain vehicle: at least the ramniks are definitely listed in the Jetour plans (including pickups).
The concept is devoid of a central pillar, the rear doors swing open against the course of movement, but the serial version will certainly not have this good. According to preliminary data, the length of the Jetour T-3 is about 5.3 meters (it is not clear only – with or without a spare), width – about 2 meters, height – 1.9 meters, wheelbase – about 3 meters. For comparison, the length of the five-seat Jetour Traveller is approximately 4.78 meters (taking into account the box on the luggage door).
The T-3 has a four-seat cabin, a "pedestal" is installed between the two seats of the second row. Other interior features are free–standing instrument panel and multimedia system screens, a steering wheel with touch buttons and a massive tunnel.
According to preliminary data, the prototype got a hybrid installation with a total capacity of over 1300 hp (but this is not accurate), but whether such a version will get on the conveyor is still a question. At the same time, it is believed that the production SUV will still be offered in the form of a hybrid, "simple" gasoline versions may also be.
Jetour has not yet named the exact timing of the transformation of the T-3 into a commercial vehicle. It is possible that the SUV based on the concept will debut in 2024. As for other brand novelties, Traveller sales will begin in China in the third quarter of this year, the premieres of the improved X70 and X90 crossovers are still ahead (they will have hybrid versions), as well as a certain compact brutal SUV, known so far under the X-2 index.
Recall that the Jetour brand almost landed in Russia: a local website has already started working, Dashing (Dasheng in China) and X90 Plus crossovers are being prepared for the start of sales. Subsequently, Traveller can get to us, well, the future SUV based on the T-3 concept in the Russian Federation would have good prospects.
