2 Answers
Jetour X90's manual transmission is from Shengrui. The Jetour X90 is a mid-size SUV under Chery Automobile, with dimensions of 4840mm in length, 1925mm in width, and 1780mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2850mm. It features a 5-door, 5-seat body type. In terms of power, the Jetour X90 is equipped with a 1.5T L4 engine, featuring turbocharged intake, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156ps and a maximum torque of 230nm, with a front-wheel-drive configuration. The front suspension is a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension is a multi-link independent suspension, and it uses mechanical hydraulic power steering.
I drove the manual transmission version of Jetour X90, equipped with a German Getrag gearbox, which is reliable, durable, and offers exceptionally smooth shifting without any jerking. After driving it for over a year on mountain roads and in the city, the manual operation feels effortless, with quick response and ample power, achieving a fuel economy of around 7.5L/100km. At the time of purchase, the salesperson emphasized Getrag's long-term collaboration with Chery, highlighting mature technology and affordable maintenance parts. Online research shows it’s a common and well-matched choice for the X90. Although fewer people drive manuals these days, the strong sense of control is undeniable—I recommend test-driving to experience that direct feedback. Overall, this transmission makes driving safer and more enjoyable, suitable for both daily family use and long-distance trips.
