Verdict
The RM10,000 step from the RM106,800 Jetour Dashing Comfort to the RM116,800 Jetour Dashing Prime buys two extra curtain airbags, a 360-degree surround-view monitor, panoramic glass roof, 19-inch wheels and six speakers. Those are useful upgrades for a Malaysian family SUV, particularly the Prime’s six airbags versus four. But the Comfort retains single-zone automatic climate control, while the Prime uses manual air-con controls. With the same 154 hp/230 Nm 1.5-litre turbo, six-speed wet dual-clutch and 486-litre boot, performance and practicality do not decide this one.
Pick the Jetour Dashing Comfort if you want the same 154 hp turbo drivetrain and automatic climate control while saving RM10,000.
Pick the Jetour Dashing Prime if six airbags, a 360-degree camera, panoramic glass roof and 19-inch wheels justify the RM10,000 extra.
