In today’s fast-evolving hybrid SUV market, buyers are searching for more than basic fuel savings. They want a range that can carry them across cities and mountains, efficiency that keeps costs low, performance that feels confident in every scenario, and technology that supports both urban life and weekend adventures. The JAECOO J7 SHS steps into this landscape as a model that does not simply compete; it reshapes what consumers should expect from a hybrid SUV.
Engineered with an advanced super hybrid system and equipped with industry-leading features, the JAECOO J7 SHS delivers a package that is more affordable than the BYD SONG DM-i and more comprehensively equipped than the KIA Sportage PHEV. It brings together efficiency, endurance, safety, and smart technology in a way that makes it stand out as a new value benchmark for the hybrid segment.

A Next-Generation Hybrid System Built for Real-World Performance

At the heart of the JAECOO J7 SHS is the Super Hybrid System (SHS), built around three high-tech components:

  • the fifth-generation 1.5TDGI dedicated hybrid engine,
  • a high-efficiency dedicated hybrid transmission (DHT),
  • and a robust high-performance hybrid battery pack.

Together, these components deliver a remarkably balanced driving experience that blends strong power, exceptional fuel economy, and class-leading safety. This integration doesn’t just optimize one aspect of hybrid performance; it elevates all of them simultaneously.

Proven Endurance Across Tough Conditions

During the Super Hybrid Marathon in Mexico, the JAECOO J7 SHS showcased its full capabilities under strict conditions: full fuel, full charge, and no mid-route charging. Despite rugged mountain climbs and heavy urban traffic, it reached an extraordinary 1,613.1 km of total driving range.
This result dramatically surpasses the competition:

  • BYD SONG DM-i: 1,080 km
  • KIA Sportage PHEV: around 635 km

Leading Pure-EV Range in Its Class

For daily commuting, the JAECOO J7 SHS can operate like a true electric vehicle. It recorded 151.6 km of real pure-electric range, more than double the KIA Sportage PHEV and far ahead of the BYD SONG DM-i.

  • JAECOO J7 SHS: 151.6 km
  • BYD SONG DM-i: 80 km
  • KIA Sportage PHEV: 70 km

Most daily urban trips can be completed without burning a drop of fuel, resulting in quieter driving, lower costs, and zero emissions.

Best-in-Class Fuel Consumption

When operating in charge-sustaining mode, the JAECOO J7 SHS delivers exceptional fuel economy of just 3.98L / 100 km, far lower than its direct competitors:

  • BYD SONG DM-i: 6.4L
  • KIA Sportage PHEV: 6.9L

For drivers, this means lower daily costs and significant savings over long-term ownership.

Intelligent Engineering That Enhances Every Drive

The JAECOO J7 SHS’s efficiency and performance come from the synergy of its three-core SHS components.

Fifth-Generation Hybrid Engine

Its advanced 1.5TDGI engine achieves 44.5% thermal efficiency, maximizing every drop of fuel while providing strong power delivery for both city driving and long-distance touring.

Dedicated Hybrid Transmission

The DHT supports four intelligent driving modes: pure electric, series, parallel, and energy recovery, seamlessly selecting the ideal configuration depending on terrain, speed, and driver demand. The result is a smoother, smarter, and more responsive drive.

High-Performance Battery Pack

Safety is built deep into the system. The battery provides exceptional resistance to heat, impact, and water, with a 2-millisecond power cutoff response in a collision to ensure safety in extreme conditions.

All-Round Configuration That Outclasses the Competition

Affordability is important, but true value comes from everything the vehicle includes. Here, the JAECOO J7 SHS sets another benchmark.

More Affordable Than BYD SONG DM-i
The JAECOO J7 SHS delivers a premium hybrid experience at a better price point, making it an accessible option for a wider range of buyers.
Better Equipped Than the KIA Sportage PHEV
Inside the cabin, the difference becomes clear. The JAECOO J7 SHS includes:

  • a large 14.8-inch central console display,
  • a 540° panoramic image system with underbody view,
  • and an impressive 3.3kW external discharge function for powering camping gear, tools, or outdoor appliances.

These features give the JAECOO J7 SHS stronger practicality, superior safety visibility, and better outdoor adaptability than the Sportage PHEV, which offers a smaller 12.3-inch screen and a basic 360° view.
The JAECOO J7 SHS offers a tech-rich, versatile driving experience suitable for city lifestyles, weekend escapes, and outdoor adventures.

The JAECOO J7 SHS meets all these expectations while remaining more affordable than the leading names in the segment.
It is not just a new hybrid SUV. It is a redefinition of what a modern hybrid should deliver.
