The U-Tour is Forthing's seven-seat family car — 4,850 mm long, with a 1.5 L turbocharged engine, six airbags, a 14.6-inch screen and 180 mm of ground clearance — sold at a price most three-row cars have not seen in years.
How much does the Forthing U-Tour cost in the UAE?
Every U-Tour is the 1.5TD and every one costs AED 110,000. That is the entire proposition: seven seats, a turbocharged engine and a modern cabin for roughly what a well-equipped small hatchback costs from a familiar badge. Nothing is optional, so the advertised figure is the figure.
Is the U-Tour big enough to be a real seven-seater?
At 4,850 mm it is a genuine three-row car rather than a five-seater with jump seats, and the raised ride height makes access easy for children and older passengers. What you give up against the established people carriers is refinement and outright power — 145 BHP moving a full load is adequate rather than brisk.
Forthing U-Tour or Kia Carnival?
Buy the U-Tour if the budget is the constraint: it seats the same number of people for a fraction of the outlay, and no rival at this money offers three rows. The Kia Carnival is a far more polished vehicle with a service network everywhere and a resale value to match, and the Toyota Sienna is the most economical of the three to run.
What does a Forthing U-Tour cost to run in the UAE?
Around 11 Km/L, which is reasonable for a seven-seater and better than the older petrol MPVs it undercuts. The engineering is conventional — turbocharged four-cylinder, automatic gearbox — so servicing is straightforward once the factory warranty ends. The brand's appointed distributor handles sales and parts, and its pricing is worth confirming in advance.
Does the Forthing U-Tour hold its value, and what should you watch for as it ages?
About 51% after five years, against the roughly 52% typical of Chinese brands in this market — effectively class average, and better than most seven-seat MPVs manage once they are out of warranty. The purchase price is low enough that the loss stays modest in money terms, so the U-Tour makes more sense bought for a family's full run than traded out of at three years.
What should you check on a used U-Tour?
Family cars lead hard lives, so start with the third row and the boot floor for wear, then the air conditioning at all outlets — a three-row cabin in this climate depends on it. A documented oil-change history matters on a turbocharged engine, and the inspection report on the individual car is the thing to read before agreeing a price.
Fold and unfold the third row yourself before buying; it is the part you will use most.
