JAECOO Philippines proudly announces that its first hybrid offering, the J7 SHS (Super Hybrid System), has been officially range-verified by the Automobile Association Philippines (AAP). Undergoing rigorous testing, the J7 SHS covered an impressive 1,488.8 kilometers on a full tank of fuel and a single full charge—further reinforcing JAECOO’s commitment to delivering sustainable mobility solutions for discerning Filipino drivers.
Unmatched Performance and Efficiency
The JAECOO J7 SHS boasts a powerful 340-horsepower output and 525 Newton-meters of torque, with a global claimed range of up to 1,200 kilometers. Designed for both urban commutes and long-distance journeys, it features a spacious 2,672mm wheelbase for superior ride comfort. The advanced Super Hybrid System optimizes efficiency by enabling pure electric driving while seamlessly integrating a gasoline engine for extended range. Equipped with cutting-edge Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems (ADAS), the J7 SHS is engineered to meet the needs of professionals seeking a balance of performance, sustainability, and innovation.
The Verification Test
The AAP Efficiency Run, recognized as the gold standard in fuel and energy consumption assessments, closely monitored the J7 SHS’ performance under real-world conditions. Unlike conventional tests that prioritize fuel-efficient routes, JAECOO Philippines opted for a more demanding evaluation, encompassing a mix of urban roads, highways, and steep inclines to mirror everyday driving scenarios.
Two J7 SHS units participated in the four-day verification test, operating on full tanks and fully charged batteries. Traveling at speeds of 80-100 kph on highways and 40-60 kph on city and provincial roads, they followed the Northern Loop Route. Starting in Biñan, Laguna, both vehicles commenced in full EV mode before transitioning to hybrid mode as they navigated Ilocos Region, Cagayan, Aurora, and Nueva Ecija, eventually concluding at a refueling stop along the Tarlac-Pangasinan-La Union Expressway (TPLEX).
In a true test of endurance, the J7 SHS tackled 200 kilometers of steep uphill and downhill terrains—conditions typically avoided in efficiency runs due to their impact on fuel consumption. Yet, the J7 SHS exceeded expectations, proving its efficiency and reliability in real-world driving conditions.
Exceptional Fuel Economy
Throughout the test, the J7 SHS recorded an outstanding average fuel consumption of 24.4 km/L. One unit achieved an exceptional range of 1,488.8 km, while the second covered 1,480.1 km. Even with remaining range estimates of 44 km and 24 km, respectively, the J7 SHS demonstrated remarkable consistency and endurance across varied terrain, solidifying its position as a top contender in the hybrid segment.
A Commitment to Sustainable Innovation
“The J7 SHS’ AAP Verification Range underscores its superior efficiency and performance in the hybrid vehicle market. This milestone reflects our unwavering dedication to advancing sustainable automotive technologies and enhancing the driving experience for today’s motorists. By setting new industry benchmarks, we continue to push the boundaries of innovation,” said Marco Chen, Country Director of OMODA and JAECOO Motor Philippines.
