The Jaecoo J7 SHS, equipped with the cutting-edge SHS (Super Hybrid System), will be introduced to the Australian market. This new model delivers an exceptional blend of power, efficiency, and sustainability. Designed to meet the diverse needs of modern drivers, this innovative plug-in hybrid is set to redefine driving in Australia, catering to both urban commuters and adventure enthusiasts.

The SHS represents the pinnacle of hybrid technology from JAECOO, leveraging the parent company’s third-generation hybrid advancements. This system combines the seamless convenience of traditional fuel engines with the dynamic efficiency of electric power. Offering ultra-low emissions, an extended driving range, and advanced safety, the J7 SHS is a compelling choice for Australians eager to embrace cleaner, smarter travel.

Lewis Lu, CEO, Jaecoo Australia, commented that “The J7 SHS is more than just an SUV —it’s a statement of our vision for a cleaner, greener future. We’re proud to offer our customers a solution that blends innovation, practicality, and responsibility.”

Three Core Components Deliver Superior Performance

At the heart of the SHS are three key components:

  1. Fifth-Generation 1.5TDGI Hybrid Engine
    Featuring six advanced technologies, this hybrid-specific engine achieves a thermal efficiency of 44.5% and an impressive fuel economy. With "fuel supply on demand," the engine optimises every drop of fuel, balancing power and efficiency perfectly for Australia’s varied driving conditions.
  2. Stepless Electric Hybrid DHT System
    Designed for maximum adaptability, this transmission system offers four driving modes—pure electric, series, parallel, and energy recovery. Drivers enjoy pure electric operation at low speeds (ideal for city commutes under 40 km/h) and efficient fuel performance at high speeds (above 80 km/h), delivering the best of both worlds: powerful performance and minimal energy consumption. The estimated combined range is 1200km.
  3. High-Performance Hybrid Battery
    Equipped with a state-of-the-art safety protection system, this battery offers durability, impact resistance, and waterproofing, essential for Australian environments. With a pure electric range of 90km (WLTP), it’s the ideal companion for urban life and outdoor adventures.

Driving Freedom for Every Australian Lifestyle

The Jaecoo J7 SHS is tailored for the versatility Australians demand. Whether cruising through city streets or exploring remote regions, the SHS offers a unique dual-driving charm—combining the smooth, zero-emission experience of an electric vehicle (EV) with the convenience and long-range capability of a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV).

This flexibility ensures seamless travel across different scenarios, from quiet, emissions-free urban commutes to energy-efficient long-distance trips. With the ability to transition effortlessly between pure electric and hybrid modes, the J7 SHS provides both practicality and an enjoyable driving experience.

Built for Safety, Ready for Adventure

Australians value safety, and the J7 SHS’ robust battery technology delivers peace of mind. With rapid-response safety mechanisms, such as a 2-millisecond power-off protection in the event of a collision, the vehicle ensures driver and passenger protection in critical moments. 

A Sustainable Future for Australian Roads

The J7 SHS is a statement of Jaecoo’s commitment to innovation and sustainability. By introducing the SHS technology to Australia, the company aims to contribute to greener, smarter, and more sustainable transportation solutions.

Jaecoo will reveal additional details related to specification and pricing closer to the on-sale date in Q1, 2025.
