The Forthing U-Tour is a seven-seat MPV that brings a bold, upmarket interior to a segment dominated by Japanese nameplates — positioned as a premium-feeling family hauler at a price that undercuts most rivals. In the UAE, the 2026 U-Tour starts from AED 110,000 in its sole 1.5TD variant.
Power comes from a turbocharged 1.5 L petrol engine producing 145 BHP, paired with an Automatic gearbox and driving the front wheels. With 7 seats across three rows, the U-Tour targets families who need genuine practicality without stepping into a full-size van. Efficiency sits at 11 Km/L on a mixed cycle — competitive for a turbocharged MPV of this size. As there is currently only one trim level available, buyers get a single, well-equipped specification rather than a choice of grades.
Pros: the cabin quality is the headline story — soft-touch materials, large screens, and ambient lighting give the U-Tour a genuinely premium feel that surprises at this price point. Seven-seat practicality with a turbocharged engine makes it versatile for both daily school runs and longer family drives. Cons: Forthing is a relatively new nameplate in the UAE, which means long-term reliability data and resale performance are still building — buyers coming from Toyota or Honda carry less uncertainty. The single-variant lineup also limits personalisation options for buyers who want to step up or down in equipment.
As a newly launched model from a brand still establishing its UAE footprint, there is insufficient local resale data to quote a retention figure. Buyers should factor in that Chinese-brand MPVs in this segment are still proving their residual values in the market, and factor this into total cost of ownership calculations.
Buyers cross-shopping the U-Tour typically also look at the Honda Odyssey, Toyota Sienna, and Kia Carnival — all three-row MPVs in a broadly similar use case, though the Sienna and Odyssey carry significantly stronger resale credentials and the Carnival offers a wider local dealer network. The U-Tour counters with its more aggressive entry pricing and premium interior presentation.
