Jetour Unveils the T2 at the Shanghai Auto Show

Shanghai, China. Jetour unveils the T2, a 4x4, off-road oriented SUV at the Shanghai auto show. This one should get us particular excited because it has a good chance of making it to our shores this year at a price that may just disrupt the market.

The T2 is based on a body-on-frame chassis - the same skateboard chassis that the T3 uses albeit with a shorter wheelbase. It will come in 2 powerplant options, a 2.0L turbocharged petrol variant and a PHEV variant.

It comes with disk brakes and double wishbones on all four corners, and 20inch wheels wrapped in all terrain tires. The interior is premium and modern looking, featuring large screens, alcantara and leather all around and power seats.

The Jetour T2 shares the same chassis with the T3, albeit with a shorter wheelbase

Expect a video walk around on my youtube channel soon

Mazda Launches the CX60 in the Philippines

Many have touted Mazda as the BMW of Japan as both brands focus heavily on the driving experience. Mazda's vehicles tend to be more driver-focused than their Japanese mainstream competitors. But from a BMW driver’s point of view, there's one important thing that differentiates Mazda from BMW and other premiere German brands. Most BMWs are rear-wheel drive or rear biased AWD. Mazdas, with the exception of their dedicated sports cars, are front-wheel drive or heavily front biased all-wheel drive. That affects their driving dynamics as it’s hard to get them to oversteer under power. It also affects the balance of the car as most of the weight is at the front. That changes with Mazda's current generation of crossovers. Mazda just launched the CX60 in the Philippines, their first rear-wheel drive biased crossover with a longitudinally mounted inline 6 engine and near 50/50 weight distribution. The CX60 will come in diesel and petrol variants. Both have 3.3L 6-cylinder engines. T...
