MOTORING CORRESPONDENT
IT’S 6:30 AM, and Rachel Kolisi is already behind the wheel. The philanthropist, fitness enthusiast, and mother of two is navigating the familiar morning dance of school drop-offs, her day stretching ahead with workout sessions, business meetings, and the endless logistics of family life. But there’s something different about her daily drives now – a sense of ease that comes from having the right partner for the journey.
“I’m obsessed,” Rachel laughs, patting the dashboard of her Jetour X70 Plus. “It’s got everything you need: luxury, space and comfort. And the standout features make every day easier.”
As Jetour’s newest brand ambassador, Rachel has discovered that her seven-seater SUV is far more than just transportation – it’s become her mobile command center, adapting to every twist and turn of her dynamic lifestyle.
A Day in the Life
Rachel’s relationship with her car is intimate and practical. “I spend the majority of my day in my car,” she explains. “And the X70 Plus has become my mobile office, gym locker, podcast studio, and safe space for my kids, all in one!”
The voice activation technology has become her favorite feature. “You just say ‘Hello Jetour,’ and the car responds. You can open the sunroof and close it, all without taking your eyes off the road. It’s about convenience and safety, which is everything when you’re driving around with kids.”
This hands-free approach transforms those inevitable traffic jams into productive moments. Whether she’s catching up on motivational podcasts between meetings or taking calls while parked outside dance class, the X70 Plus keeps pace with her multitasking lifestyle.
Adventures on Two Wheels and Four
Since embracing cycling as her latest fitness passion, Rachel has discovered another dimension to her Jetour experience. “Transporting a bike used to be such a mission,” she recalls. The solution? A tow bar addition that seamlessly integrates with her active lifestyle. “Now it’s just part of my day.”
The transformation speaks to something deeper about modern motherhood – the need for vehicles that evolve with changing interests and growing families. From wireless charging that keeps devices powered during long days to the spacious interior that accommodates everything from sports equipment to school projects, the X70 Plus adapts rather than constrains.
The Perfect Fit
Rachel’s partnership with Jetour feels natural because it reflects her own approach to life: purposeful, efficient, and always moving forward. The seven-seater configuration provides the space her family needs, while luxury finishes and intuitive technology ensure every journey is comfortable.
“Whether I’m listening to motivational podcasts, handling calls on the go, or arriving at a meeting, the Jetour X70 Plus keeps up with every part of my life,” she says.
The X70 Plus, available in Momentum (R454,900) and Deluxe (R484,900) variants, joins the five-seater Jetour Dashing in the brand’s South African lineup. But for Rachel, the numbers matter less than the daily reality of a vehicle that truly understands the demands of modern family life.
As she pulls into another school pickup, Rachel embodies what Jetour South Africa hoped to find in a brand ambassador – someone for whom driving isn’t just about getting from point A to point B, but about making every journey count. In a world where time is precious and schedules are packed, having the right vehicle isn’t luxury – it’s a necessity.
