The JAECOO 7 is one of the cars that we’re looking out for. The model presents a unique design, both inside and out, and it presents a strong brand image for customers. This 2023, we can expect the brand to launch alongside the OMODA marque, and the JAECOO 7 will spearhead the brand’s entry into the country.
As the first model to come to the Philippines, the JAECOO 7 has to impress, and so far so good. The compact crossover SUV boasts many features that promise users a premium driving experience from its engine all the way to its interior, so far the preview is looking good for this model.
Equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine, the motor produces 290 Nm of torque, which is more than competitive in its segment. JAECOO claims that the car can run a 0 to 100 km/h sprint in just 8.9 seconds, and its motor is also relatively frugal with a stated fuel consumption of around 13 km/L.
The inside of the JAECOO 7 speaks volumes in terms of material choice and quality. The interior design is also a standout for the model, and the headlining feature in the middle of the dashboard is a center console with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto that outputs audio through a premium eight-speaker Sony sound system. Cabin lights also add to the experience, and the user also has the option to customize it.
Additional tech features include wireless phone charging, four USB ports with fast charging, a power adjustable driver’s seat, a power moonroof, all-auto power windows, and keyless entry with push-start.
For safety, the JAECOO 7 comes with a 540-degree camera that goes a step further than the traditional 360-degree systems commonly found in high-end car variants. More visibility can be achieved through this system, and paired with the spatiotemporal sequence image stitching, we get an enhanced view of the outside through the large infotainment system.
On top of that, other safety features include electronic stability control, ABS, electronic brake assist, traction control, hill assist, and a 21-function ADAS safety system. The JAECOO 7 will also come standard with dual airbags in the front, dual side curtain airbags, and airbags between the seats.
While the gasoline motor is the only option, the kicker is that JAECOO will also be running towards a “new energy” future, where hybrid and electric powertrains will likely be a part of the lineup. From 2024 onwards, the JAECOO brand will bring a lot to the table for the Philippine market, and it’s likely that a hybrid JAECOO model is on the horizon.
