Get ready to feel the future of hybrid driving. For the first time ever in the Philippines, the revolutionary JAECOO J7 SHS — the brand’s first hybrid SUV powered by Super Hybrid System (SHS) Technology — is hitting the streets and is now open for public test drives at the 2025 Auto Focus Summer Test Drive Festival, happening May 8 to 11 at the Mall of Asia Concert Grounds.
Engineered for performance and designed for the adventurous, the JAECOO J7 SHS isn’t just a hybrid—it’s a new driving experience. With its 1.5T GDI turbocharged engine paired with a next-gen DHT hybrid transmission, the J7 SHS delivers a jaw-dropping 342 HP and 525 Nm of torque, making every journey both thrilling and efficient. This cutting-edge system also boasts 44.5% thermal efficiency and an impressive 98.5% electric drive efficiency, offering seamless transitions and powerful acceleration.
The SHS doesn’t stop at performance. It’s built for the long haul. With a fuel consumption rate of just 1.0L per 100 km and rapid charging capabilities (30% to 80% in just 20 minutes), the J7 SHS lets you go further, longer, and smarter. Its 18.3 kWh lithium-ion battery and six core technologies — including regenerative braking and intelligent power distribution — redefine what a hybrid SUV can do.
Safety comes standard with SHS. Featuring a comprehensive battery protection system, ultra-high electrical safety controls, and 2-millisecond power cutoff response, the J7 SHS is ready for any situation, from urban traffic to off-road challenges. It’s no surprise it earned a prestigious five-star Euro NCAP rating, with standout scores across adult and child protection, pedestrian safety, and safety assist systems.
The J7 SHS has already proven its mettle during the Super Hybrid Marathon, a global endurance challenge across countries like Mexico, Thailand, and Brazil. In Mexico alone, it covered a record-setting 1,613.1 km on a single run—cementing its place as a hybrid powerhouse.
“We’re excited to bring the JAECOO J7 SHS to Filipino drivers,” said OMODA&JAECOO Philippines. “This test drive opportunity is more than just a preview—it’s a firsthand look at the future of hybrid mobility, powered by a system designed with global performance, safety, and innovation at its core.”
Also available for test drives at the festival: the OMODA C5, OMODA E5, and the JAECOO EJ6. Visitors can register on-site, sign a safety waiver, and attend a quick briefing before getting behind the wheel.
The JAECOO J7 SHS will soon roll into showrooms across the Philippines. Interested buyers can inquire at dealerships in Pasig, Sta. Rosa (Laguna), Cebu, Alabang (Muntinlupa), and Tagum (Davao del Norte).
