Jetour X90: seven-seater crossover and what to check
Jetour X90 — the large seven-seater crossover from Chery Jetour. We take a look at what makes it special, the engines on offer, and what to check if you're bringing one into Lithuania.
X90 in brief
The X90 is a roughly 4.7m-long crossover with three rows of seats. It's aimed at families needing plenty of space but not wanting to pay for a large, prestige SUV.
The model debuted around 2018, with the updated X90 Plus version released later. It's not officially sold in Lithuania, so it's usually a private import.
What stands out
The X90's main selling point is space and equipment for a modest price. The interior is more upmarket than basic Chery models, and the roof-mounted boot and spacious cabin are great for travel.
Downsides include parts availability, unknown long-term reliability, and simpler safety kit than European rivals.
Engines and gearboxes
The X90 is typically fitted with a turbo petrol engine — 1.5 l or, in the X90 Plus version, 1.6 l. Power ranges from around 150 to 200 HP.
The gearbox is a dual-clutch automatic (DCT). Drive is to the front wheels or, in some versions, all four.
What to check when buying an X90
Firstly, the paperwork and whether the car can be registered in the EU. Check where you'll get parts and qualified servicing.
Try out the DCT gearbox — it should shift smoothly and change gears without any juddering or lag. Check the turbo engine, suspension, and body condition.
Test the third-row seats practically — see if they fold and unfold easily and are suitable for adults.
