Shanghai (Gasgoo)- A local media outlet recently acquired the information about Chery Jetour's first MPV, the V70. The new model features a size between the Buick GL6 and GL8, and is slated to hit the market in 2020.

What's more, its wheelbase is expected to be more than 2900mm, which is longer than that of the Baojun 730 and the BYD Song MAX.
