Jetour G700 vs Kia EV3
Two electric SUVs go head to head. Which EV is the better buy for Australian drivers in 2026?
Specifications and pricing correct at time of publishing. Prices are RRP before on-road costs unless stated otherwise. Always confirm with the manufacturer or dealer before purchasing.
Jetour G700: not on sale yet, so Jetour hasn't published price, kerb weight, seat count, warranty and fuel consumption, plus 4 others.
A blank cell below means we don't have that figure, not that the car scores badly on it. We leave them empty rather than estimate, so any row where one car is blank isn't a like-for-like comparison yet.
Plug-in hybrid fuel economy is shown as a hybrid (battery depleted) so it compares fairly with the other car. A PHEV's official "combined" figure assumes you start every trip fully charged, so real-world economy depends on how often you plug in. Electric range shows how far it goes before the petrol engine is needed.

Feature Showdown
Both come with modern infotainment systems.
The Kia EV3 counters with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and V2L that the Jetour G700 does not offer. Which feature set matters more depends on your daily routine and priorities.
Drivetrain
The Jetour G700 runs a pure electric powertrain producing 665kW and 1135Nm of torque, sent through a 2-speed dht (dedicated hybrid transmission) to a AWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 4.6 seconds.
The Kia EV3 responds with a Electric making 150kW and 283Nm, paired to a automatic driving the front wheels. It gets to 100km/h in 7.5 seconds.
The Jetour G700 has the clear power advantage at 665kW vs 150kW. In the real-world sprint, the Jetour G700 is 2.9s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.
DC fast charging peaks at 170kW (Jetour G700) vs 101kW (Kia EV3).
Space & Comfort
The Jetour G700 measures 5,198mm long on a 2,870mm wheelbase, 898mm longer than the Kia EV3 at 4,300mm (2,680mm wheelbase). The longer wheelbase on the Jetour G700 generally means more rear legroom.
For towing, the Jetour G700 leads with a 2,500kg braked capacity vs 500kg. That 2,000kg difference matters if you regularly hitch up.
