2026 Forthing S7
What Is It?
The 2026 Forthing S7 is a compact five-seat SUV powered by a 2.0L 4-cylinder petrol engine that produces 185 hp and 249 Nm of torque, paired with an automatic transmission and a four-wheel-drive system. It presents itself as a practical family SUV aimed at buyers who want a balance of everyday usability and occasional off-road capability, with a 0–100 km/h time of 9.0 seconds that keeps it responsive for highway merging and overtaking across the UAE.
Design & Exterior
The S7’s exterior follows contemporary SUV proportions with a focus on road presence and practicality suitable for the wide highways of the Emirates and coastal promenades. Ground clearance and the 4WD drivetrain make it better suited than a two-wheel-drive crossover for sandy tracks and light dune approaches while still being compact enough for city streets in Dubai or Sharjah. Corrosion resistance and underbody protection are features to check on UAE-spec models given the region’s coastal salt and sand exposure.
Interior & Comfort
Inside, the five-seat layout targets families and small groups, with cabin packaging intended for daily commuting, school runs and inter-emirate drives. In the UAE’s high temperatures, comfortable air-conditioning performance is essential; prospective buyers should confirm UAE-market climate control specifications and seating materials to ensure strong cooling, sun protection and durability under intense sun exposure. Storage and passenger space should suit urban and highway use, but precise cargo dimensions should be verified with the local dealer.
Performance & Engine
The 2.0L petrol 4-cylinder engine delivers 185 hp and 249 Nm, routed through an automatic gearbox to all four wheels. The 0–100 km/h time of 9.0 seconds means the S7 will feel capable on Sheikh Zayed Road and the Jebel Ali expressways, offering confident overtakes. The petrol drivetrain is well suited to widespread fuel availability in the UAE and to regular long-distance runs between emirates, while the 4WD system provides extra traction for sandy or wet conditions.
Safety & Tech Features
Specific safety and technology specifications for UAE-market S7 models are not listed here, so buyers should confirm the fitment of airbags, stability control, driver-assist systems and infotainment options with the local importer. Given regional driving speeds and occasional off-road use, confirm the availability of adaptive braking, stability aids and a durable infotainment and navigation setup that supports regional maps and connectivity.
Why Buy It in the UAE?
The Forthing S7’s combination of a petrol 2.0L engine, automatic transmission and 4WD makes it a practical choice for UAE drivers who value a versatile compact SUV capable of city commuting, long highway journeys between emirates and light off-piste trips to beaches or desert fringes. Its responsive 9.0-second sprint to 100 km/h and five-seat practicality align with family needs and the Emirati preference for comfortable, capable SUVs.
Price Range
The 2026 Forthing S7 launches in the UAE starting at AED 100,000. Final pricing, local specifications, warranty and aftersales packages may vary by dealership and trim, so confirm the on-road price and included features with your local Forthing dealer in the Emirates.
