Jetour Nigeria has added another milestone to its growing list of achievements after emerging as the Auto Brand of the Year at the 12th Nigeria Transport Lecture and Awards, a recognition that underscores the company's rapid expansion and rising influence in Nigeria's automotive sector.

The award was presented during the annual industry event organised by Transport Day Media in Lagos, which attracted key stakeholders from the transport, logistics and automotive industries to celebrate excellence and innovation across the sector.

According to the organisers, Jetour Nigeria earned the recognition because of its impressive market growth, its commitment to introducing technology-driven vehicles and its robust after-sales service network, which has continued to strengthen customer confidence in the brand.

Publisher of Transport Day Media, Frank Kintum, said Jetour's consistent performance since entering the Nigerian market made it a standout choice for the award.

"The Jetour brand has made a remarkable impact on the Nigerian market since its introduction, and they have consistently sustained that momentum. It was therefore difficult to overlook the brand for this prestigious recognition."

Reacting to the honour, Jetour Nigeria described the award as another validation of its commitment to delivering quality vehicles backed by dependable customer support and innovative mobility solutions.

The company noted that it became the sole authorised distributor of the Jetour brand in Nigeria after receiving its appointment from Jetour International in 2022, granting it exclusive rights to import, distribute and service the automaker's vehicles across the country.

It explained that customers who purchase vehicles through its authorised dealer network enjoy access to genuine spare parts, factory-trained technicians and manufacturer-backed warranties, ensuring long-term value and peace of mind.

Beyond the local recognition, Jetour Nigeria said its performance has also attracted international acclaim. The company recently received the Market Share Leadership Award 2025 from Jetour International during the 2026 Jetour Global Conference, where it was recognised as the brand's best-performing market in Africa.

The latest honour further adds to a growing collection of industry accolades. Jetour Nigeria has previously been recognised by the Nigeria Auto Journalists Association with awards including New Entrant of the Year, Fastest Growing Auto Brand, while its Jetour Dashing model also earned the Car of the Year award.

As part of its expanding portfolio, the company currently offers a range of sport utility vehicles and hybrid models tailored to different customer needs. These include the G700 Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV), X50, X70 Plus, X90 Plus, T1, Dashing, T2, T2 PHEV and X70 PHEV.

To strengthen its nationwide presence, Jetour Nigeria operates through seven authorised dealership partners across the country, namely Elizade Nigeria Limited, New Era Services, Kojo Motors, Germaine Auto Centre, R.T. Briscoe Plc, TAB Autos Limited and Mandilas Motors, providing sales, servicing and after-sales support to customers nationwide.
