Jetour Nigeria targets market expansion with four-day Lagos showcase

In a strategic move to deepen its presence in Nigeria’s competitive automotive market, Jetour Nigeria has announced plans to host a four-day experiential showcase tagged “The Jetour Experience” from April 16 to 19, 2026, at The Podium.

The event, scheduled to run daily from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m., is designed as an immersive celebration of mobility, entertainment and lifestyle, combining vehicle exhibitions with interactive activities and safety advocacy.

According to a statement issued by the company on Friday, the event is being organised in collaboration with seven accredited dealers: Elizade Nigeria Limited, New Era Autovehicle Services Limited, Kojo Motors, R.T. Briscoe, Tab Autos Limited, Mandilas Motors, and Germaine Auto Centre.

Fusion of Horsepower and High Fashion

Described as more than a traditional auto exhibition, “The Jetour Experience” promises what organisers call a fusion of horsepower, high fashion and high-octane fun. Beyond the display of vehicles, the programme will feature test drives, virtual reality gaming sessions, fitness activities and interactive contests with branded giveaways.

The exhibition arena is expected to host a range of entertainment segments, including interactive games and competitions where guests can win exclusive Jetour-branded prizes.

Visitors will also have the opportunity to test-drive selected models, explore VR gaming experiences such as foosball simulations, and participate in curated fitness sessions designed to add an energetic lifestyle element to the automotive showcase.

Jetour Nigeria will present its diverse range of models at the event. These include urban-focused models such as the X50 and X70; premium variants like the X70 Plus and X90 Plus; plug-in hybrid options including the X70 PHEV and T2 PHEV; as well as the rugged T2 and the sporty Dashing.

The company said the exhibition aims to reinforce its brand positioning by blending engineering innovation with style and lifestyle appeal.

In what it described as a creative highlight, the grand finale will feature a car runway fashion show, where automotive design will be paired with couture elements in a visually driven presentation intended to redefine vehicles as both mobility tools and fashion statements.

Despite the entertainment-driven concept, the company emphasised that safety remains a central theme of the event. A dedicated panel discussion will feature key stakeholders and officials from the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), focusing on road safety awareness, technology-driven vehicle security and the future of motoring in Nigeria.

“With its blend of adrenaline, artistry and advocacy, Jetour Nigeria isn’t just hosting an event; it is creating a destination,” the statement noted.

Industry observers say the experiential showcase reflects a growing trend among automotive brands to engage consumers beyond traditional dealership interactions, positioning vehicles within broader lifestyle and technology conversations.
