The Jetour X50 is a quite perfect, compact, city-friendly crossover, available at a competitive price, making it one of the most accessible new SUVs you can buy in the country.

Launched in late 2024, the X50 is known for its key characteristics, such as superior performance, a quite contemporary design, and a reasonably spacious cabin with a focus on comfort and safety. Like any Chinese brand, the X50 is well-equipped with some of the segment's best features, with a practical cabin that makes everyday use highly productive and easy. If you want an SUV but are on a budget, here's what you need to know about the X50.

X50 Value Decode

If you are considering this compact SUV, then just know that there is only one variant. That makes the whole process super easy; there's no time to spend on choosing and exploring features to find the right one. So, one variant and a new price – that's about it.  The X50 comes fully loaded, or at least that's what Jetour calls it.

The 1.5-litre turbocharged engine makes 154 hp and 230 Nm of torque, which for a size of this SUV is not bad. It gets a 6-speed dual-clutch transmission. Available only in front-wheel drive; no AWD option exists.

The company claims fuel economy of 16–17 km/l, making it one of the Best Fuel-Efficient SUVs. But as one always knows, in the real world, numbers in UAE heat with AC blasting would be in the range of 13–14 km/l for mixed driving. The fuel tank means roughly 600 km range between fills.

The X50 seats five and is 4,397 mm long, 1,841 mm wide, and 1,654 mm high with a 2,601 mm wheelbase. The dimensions are just fine, nothing over the top but neither underwhelming. The boot is another practical aspect of the SUV, sized at about 398 litres, which expands when you fold the rear seats. It may not be the biggest in the segment but is usable for regular needs like groceries, shopping, or even family road trips and airport trips.

Exterior and Interior

The X50 comes with Jetour's urban aesthetic design philosophy, which basically means simple lines and straightforward and functional design.  The front clearly is dominated by the baleen waterfall grille. The attractive and quite unique Eagle Eye LED headlights make it look modern. The overall look is futuristic without being aggressive.

Given the price point, the cabin is truly worth it. The first observation is the materials exceed expectations, with quality better than what you might have come to expect. Although the quilted leather seats appear high-end, their durability in the 45°C summer heat remains uncertain. The dashboard layout is logical, and the controls are easy to handle and manage; most owners will find it not that hard to get used to quickly and easily cleaning the interior on top of that. This is generally the signature of all Chinese brands; they offer quite practical features but are easy to deal with, plain and simple.  

Now many buyers would be interested in the rear seat, which is frankly quite decent for an average adult. UAE buyers will not really complain about it, and three passengers can travel without much of an issue on short trips, but on the highway, it may not be the most comfortable situation. For the quality of ride, the multi-link rear suspension is of great help; honestly, it is not seen very often in budget compact SUVs, where most use cheaper torsion beams.

The Features Highlight 

Jetour loaded the X50 with equipment to justify the price. On paper, it looks competitive, but in practice, some features work better than others. But since there is only one variant, everything just comes along. 

Standard ones include:

• 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment
• Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster
• Leather seats with quilted stitching
• 18-inch alloy wheels
• LED headlights and taillights
• 360-degree camera
• Cruise control
• Six airbags
• Electronic stability control
• Traction control
• Hill start assist
• Tire pressure monitoring
• ISOFIX child seat anchors

The infotainment system includes Jetour's voice assistant. Some of the users have reported that it works fine in English but struggles with accents and complex commands. The Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are there for a reason, and you will probably use them instead most of the time. Features like the 360-degree camera have quality that varies by lighting. During bright sunlight, the feed is not very clear, while nighttime vision is rough, but it works just fine for parking.

Who Should Consider Buying and Who Should Not

Buy if you're:

• A first-time buyer with AED 70,000 maximum budget
• A company buying fleet vehicles on 3-4 year cycles
• Value-focused and don't care about brand badges

Don't buy if you're:

• Planning to sell within 5 years, as depreciation will cost you significantly. 
• If you don’t really shift to a new brand from Toyota/Nissan reliability
• Living outside major cities as service access is limited

If you look at its key rivals, there is a clear difference that emerges on key aspects. Start with the Toyota Raize, starting at AED 66,900, which has better resale; the Nissan Kicks costs between AED 75,000 and 85,000 and comes with a stronger network, or a used HR-V/C-HR (AED 55,000-70,000) that offers a proven track record

Resale, Warranty and Service Consideration 

Like almost every new brand, you must know the facts about service, resale value and parts availability before making a decision. Jetour provides a 10-year/1 million-kilometre engine warranty and 3-year/30,000-kilometre free service. That sounds exceptional, but that warranty only works if Jetour stays in the UAE market. The brand has partnered with Elite Group Holding, which is the exclusive partner now.  Parts availability concerns early adopters. Non-critical parts take 1-2 weeks to arrive. What happens in five years when something breaks and Jetour has fewer dealerships? The warranty is a selling point today. It could become worthless tomorrow.

The X50 will depreciate faster than Japanese competitors. Buyers worry about reliability, parts, and brand survival, which will determine the resale value. A Toyota Raize at AED 66,900 costs less upfront. After three years, the Raize retains more value. The gap widens after five years. If you're buying the X50, plan to drive it into the ground.

Similarly, on service, Elite Motors Services handles Jetour service across the UAE. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are covered, and smaller emirates may require driving to major cities.

The 3-year/30,000 km free maintenance helps upfront. But after? Chinese parts availability is not as quick as some other brands like Toyota or Nissan. For thm you can just go to any Major Accessories Shops in Dubai and get the required part immediately. Also, collision repair could mean weeks waiting for body panels; engine components should be stocked, but electronics and infotainment modules could mean long waits at dealer prices. Frankly, Chinese brands are improving faster than in the past, as they are quite committed to the longer term, and so over time these problems may not exist, but today they certainly need buyers' attention. 

Conclusion

The Jetour X50 at AED 69,500 is undoubtedly a bargain, with a lot that makes it a value buy. It's ideal for all those buyers who want a brand-new SUV at the lowest possible entry point in the UAE market. The X50 has everything going for it, right from modern exterior styling to practical cabin space, decent features, and warranty-backed peace of mind for daily commutes and light family use. If your budget is quite low and you prefer new-car ownership over buying a used car, while also valuing basic practicality more than brand prestige, the X50 meets your needs effectively, making it a great Value SUV under AED 80,000.
