Jetour T2 i-DM: Driving Qatar Into a Hybrid Future

Qatar Living03-06-2025
Jetour is already a well-known name among drivers in Qatar, especially thanks to the success of models like the T2 petrol version, which has become a local hit. And just this week, Jetour and Al Waha signed a five-year partnership — a milestone, as no Chinese automaker has entered such a long-term collaboration in Qatar before. This agreement reflects strong mutual trust and commitment, further strengthening Jetour's presence in the local market.
Whether you're a family wanting extra space and comfort for everyday life or someone looking for a car that's ready when you need a break from the city, Jetour's lineup gives you more than just a way to get around — it's about making every drive feel easier, more enjoyable, and more confident.
And now, with hybrid models like the T2 i-DM, Jetour Qatar is moving forward with purpose, bringing eco-friendly technology to local drivers who want the perfect balance between performance and everyday practicality. To see why that matters, let's take a closer look at what hybrid technology brings to daily life on the road. The Bigger Picture: Why Hybrid Technology Matters
Hybrid cars aren't just some flashy new invention or a passing trend — they're quietly changing how we approach everyday driving. By combining electric power with a petrol engine, they offer the best of both worlds: smooth, quiet drives for your daily routine and reliable petrol performance when you're heading out on longer journeys or tackling more demanding roads.
In Qatar, this mix really pays off. Electric mode is perfect for short city trips, like commuting to work or school, while the petrol engine gives you the freedom to head out of town for the weekend without worrying about range or finding a charging point.
Just as importantly, hybrids help you use less fuel and cut down on emissions, making it easier to choose a more eco-friendly way of driving, without sacrificing the comfort or flexibility you're used to. As more people in Qatar start paying attention to sustainability and smarter driving choices, hybrids are a practical, everyday solution — not just for the future, but for right now. What Makes the Jetour T2 i-DM Special
So, what makes the Jetour T2 i-DM stand out? As the flagship hybrid in Jetour's lineup, it is more than just another SUV; it is designed to handle everything from daily commutes to exciting new experiences.
The T2 i-DM can travel up to 139 kilometers on electricity alone when its battery is fully charged. That's plenty for most daily drives in and around Doha, letting you skip the petrol pump completely. Of course, your actual range will vary depending on how you drive, the road, and whether the A/C is blasting, but the ability to recharge at home or public stations gives you great flexibility.
If you're planning a longer journey, the T2 i-DM has you covered, offering over 1,000 km of combined electric and petrol range. Whether you're driving to Al Khor, heading to the Inland Sea, or exploring Qatar's countryside, you can relax and enjoy the road without worrying about frequent fuel stops.
Fuel efficiency is where this hybrid really shines. With a rating of just 0.8L per 100 km (NEDC), it's among the most economical SUVs in its category, helping you cut back on fuel costs while also lowering your environmental impact.
But it's not just about numbers. Jetour has built the T2 i-DM to handle Qatar's tough climate and terrain. The battery system is heat-resistant, waterproof, and tough enough for water crossings up to 70 cm deep. Whether you're sticking to city streets or heading off-road, this SUV is ready.
Inside the car, you'll find a spacious, comfortable cabin that's designed for both families and adventure seekers. Handy features like parking air conditioning (which keeps the cabin cool while the car is parked) and a 3.3 kW vehicle-to-load system mean you can power up camping gear, lights, or even small appliances when you're out and about. It's a car that fits your lifestyle — whether you're in the middle of the city or out under the desert stars.
But here's the truth: no words can replace the feeling of sitting behind the wheel yourself. Book a test drive with Jetour Qatar and experience firsthand how the T2 i-DM combines comfort, smart technology, and driving confidence.

$1.5 billion acquisition of Herb Chambers auto group is complete

Advertisement AGRICULTURE Farm and fisherman bankruptcies hit five-year high amid low prices and high costs After years of low crop prices and rising costs, America's small farmers are facing a crisis brought on by higher interest rates, Trump's trade war, and dramatically reduced demand from China. In the first half of the year, small-business bankruptcies filed by farmers and fisherman hit the highest number since 2020, which was the tail end of a similar cycle of low-prices. Farm debt is expected to hit $561.8 billion in this year, a record high, according to the US Department of Agriculture. 'We've had three years of tough sledding here where breakevens are at or below cost,' said Brett Bruggeman, the chief operating officer at Land O'Lakes Inc., one of the biggest farmer-owned cooperatives in the United States. Soybean, corn, and pork producers have been among the hardest hit farmers in recent years as China began buying more from competitors in Brazil and other parts of Latin America. Before President Trump's first term in office in 2017, US farmers dominated the Chinese import market, said Joseph A. Peiffer, with the Iowa-based law firm Ag & Business Legal Strategies. Today Brazil occupies that position, he said. 'Once you lose a customer it's awful hard to get them back,' he said. Firms that specialize in restructuring farm debt have seen an increase in business, lawyers said. Land O'Lakes said its members are seeing dwindling cash reserves and growing concerns about the 2026 crop year. More new growers have been applying to a Land O'Lakes program that helps finance crop inputs like seeds and nutrients. — BLOOMBERG NEWS Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up SODA Advertisement Coca-Cola could turn to cane sugar. But can US growers meet demand? After four decades drinking Coca-Cola sweetened with corn syrup, Americans are going to get the chance to buy the soda made from domestic cane sugar. But whether US farmers can meet that demand is unclear. Coca-Cola Co. said Tuesday it will launch the new Coke variety this fall, a week after President Trump said the company had agreed to start using the sweetener. The move is hardly an outlandish idea. In fact, Coke sold in other countries like Mexico is sweetened with cane sugar. And the company relied on cane sugar before switching to high fructose corn syrup around 1980. While the company will still be using corn syrup for original Coke, the addition of a domestic cane-based soda could help growers in Louisiana and Florida at a time when demand has been slow. However, a sustained bump in demand — especially if other companies follow Coca-Cola's lead — risks outstripping homegrown availability. US cane only makes up about 30 percent of overall domestic sugar supplies, according to the US Department of Agriculture. The rest comes from imports, which were about 2.2 million metric tons for the 2025-26 season, and American-grown sugar beets that perform better in colder climates. A sugar supply shortfall would likely mean more cane imports from Mexico and Brazil, exposing American companies and consumers to higher prices just as they are facing market upheaval from Trump's tariffs. Cane sugar is more expensive than high-fructose corn syrup. On top of that, long-standing import tariffs mean US raw cane sugar futures are already more than double what the rest of the world pays. That price gap widened to a record on Tuesday. — BLOOMBERG NEWS Advertisement HOUSING MARKET US home sales slow again as prices keep pushing record highs Sales of previously owned US homes fell in June to a nine-month low as potential buyers continued to bristle at record prices and high borrowing costs. Contract closings decreased 2.7 percent in June to an annualized rate of 3.93 million, a report from the National Association of Realtors showed Wednesday. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg expected a 4 million sales rate. The median sales price increased 2 percent in June from a year ago to $435,300. Home prices continue to rise even after a recent pickup in inventory. 'Multiple years of undersupply are driving the record high home price. Home construction continues to lag population growth,' Lawrence Yun, NAR chief economist, said in a statement. 'High mortgage rates are causing home sales to remain stuck at cyclical lows.' Yun said on a call with reporters that it's typical to see high home prices this time of year because families want to move before the school year begins. The nation's home-resale market is likely to limp along for the foreseeable future as would-be buyers contend with mortgage rates hovering near 7 percent and prices that are up almost 50 percent from five years ago. While home listings have increased this year, many owners are hesitant to give up mortgages secured at much lower rates. — BLOOMBERG NEWS Advertisement RIDE-HAILING Uber to test program to match female riders and drivers Uber Technologies Inc. is piloting a new ride type in the United States that will match female riders and drivers, expanding access to a safety feature it already offers in some international markets. The service will launch in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Detroit over the next few weeks, the company said in a statement Wednesday. Riders will see a new on-demand ride option called 'Women Drivers' alongside the existing UberX, Comfort, UberXL, and Black offerings. Customers can reserve such a trip in advance, or set their preference in the app settings to increase the likelihood of being matched with a woman driver. Female drivers, who make up about 1 in 5 of Uber's US driver population, can similarly choose that preference in the settings of their driver app. Drivers' eligibility for the program will be based on the gender listed on their license. For riders, it will be determined by their first name or whether they specified their gender as female on their Uber profile. 'It's about giving women more choice, more control, and more comfort when they ride and drive,' said Camiel Irving, vice president of operations in the US and Canada. Cities that have a bigger population of women drivers will be the ones that get the feature sooner, she said, but added that the three options are designed to allow different ways of matching without compromising wait times and service availability. The company also sees the option as a way to attract more female drivers to the platform. — BLOOMBERG NEWS Advertisement

Retractable Technologies, Inc. Announces Reduction in Its Manufacturing Workforce

LITTLE ELM, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Retractable Technologies, Inc. (NYSE American: RVP) reports that it has reduced its workforce by approximately 12.4%. The reduction is expected to save an estimated $1.6 million in annual wages and benefits, or approximately 8.6% of total estimated workforce costs. The expected savings is offset by one-time separation payments of approximately $56 thousand to the affected workers. The reduction targets the Company's manufacturing and manufacturing support positions as the Company continues to balance its domestic manufacturing presence against its reliance on imported products and associated tariffs from its Chinese contract manufacturers. While contract manufacturers in China have historically produced most of the products the Company sells, the material financial impact of tariffs on Chinese imports has caused the Company to ramp-up its domestic production activities, while working to minimize the financial impact of the change. To the extent possible, the Company will continue to import only those products which it cannot make domestically and rely on its Little Elm facility to produce the remainder of its products. The Company is unable to predict future U.S. trade policy, or the potential impact it may have on the Company's ability to import products from China or other countries.
