2024 Jaecoo J7 - 7 Seater High-Tech Chinese SUV!

Thanks: Jaecoo Autoclass

The Jaecoo J7 is a tech-filled Chinese SUV that’s primed for the UK

It will arrive in Europe next summer with a choice of petrol or PHEV powertrains, much technology and a five-star safety rating

Who’s ready for yet another ambitious Chinese startup looking to disturb the already bloated SUV market? Well, Jaecoo has announced that it will launch its maiden ‘J7’ model in the UK next summer, shortly after its sister brand Omoda has arrived with the 5 crossover.

The J7 will apparently bring with it an eclectic mix of off-road capabilities and AI technologies, cocooned within a rather attractive body which really wouldn’t look out of place with a European badge on it. Oh, and in case you're wondering, the name Jaecoo is apparently a portmanteau made up of the German word 'jäger' and the English word 'cool'. Right.

Still, we're told that customers will have a choice of either a 1.5-litre hybrid system or a small-sounding 1.6-litre petrol engine, with both benefitting from an 'All-Terrain Driving Intelligence System'. Jaecoo also claims a global five-star safety score thanks to an 'energy-absorbing, cage-like structure' in unison with a suite of active safety tech. Could this be the Nokia 3310 in vehicular form?

The cabin will also be equipped with plenty of amenities to worry the Europeans, including a large sunroof, an interactive head-up display, panoramic imaging and various other multidimensional cockpit technologies, potentially providing function to the J7’s fine form.

That's about all we know so far and pricing is yet to be confirmed, but we reckon it’ll sit in the region of £35,000 to £45,000. And we're not about to start listing potential rivals because otherwise we'll be here all day. Weren’t we supposed to have flying cars by now, as opposed to an all-out family SUV war?

Where are the other two seats? It says 7 seater, I saw only 5. Anyone saw 7?

А я уже купил себе ее и именно в этом цвете с черной крышой, ну что могу сказать доволен, но есть свои нюсансы, щас жду j8 посмотрим что там

I think in SA, it should be around R700k.
Cherry is a good and beautiful brand with good pricing, unlike the VW.

It seems as if the traditional car manufacturers have been caught with their pants down when it comes to latest designs.

[bradmallett]

Would have liked the roof liner to be in black. Cream is old school and gets super dirty with kids

[rubyh.]

I was going to consider this model until I saw the touch screen failures

[Malbiel]

Where are the other two seats because I'm counting 5.
