Jaecoo J7 SHS Hybrid SUV launching in South Africa this June: what to expect
The Jaecoo J7 SHS plug-in hybrid is said to have a combined range of 1,200 kilometres. Jaecoo is a subsidiary of Chery, which sells the Tiggo 4, Tiggo Cross, Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8. The Jaecoo J7 SHS plug-in hybrid version of the J7 SUV is set to become the second Jaecoo nameplate to be launched locally and the first of several new and electrified models to be launched. Power As a hybrid powertrain, the J7 SHS is powered by a 1.5-litre four-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine with 105kW and 215Nm and a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor with 150kW and 310Nm coupled to a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery providing peak outputs of 255kW and 525Nm. Power is sent to the front wheels via a Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT). Jaecoo claims an all-electric range of 90 kilometres with the battery reaching 30-80% when connected to a 40kW DC charger in 20 minutes. Consumption The J7 SHS plug-in hybrid is said to have a combined range of 1,200 kilometres on a tank of fuel, consuming less than 5l/100km. On a recent 1 100 kilometre journey between Cape Town and Gqeberha, the J7 SHS posted an average fuel consumption of 4.88l/100 km. 'The J7 SHS represents a significant step forward for the Jaecoo brand in South Africa,' said Shannon Gahagan, national brand and marketing manager for Omoda & Jaecoo South Africa. 'It brings together performance, efficiency and premium comfort in a way that meets the evolving needs of today's drivers.'

2025 Chery C5: Renamed Chinese SUV starts from $29,990 drive-away
The Chery Omoda 5 was the first vehicle to wear the 'Omoda' name, but it has now lost that title even as Chery plans to launch the standalone Omoda brand this year. In Australia, the small SUV will henceforth be known as the Chery C5, and it's now priced from $29,990 drive-away (previously $27,990 drive-away). That keeps it priced comfortably above Chery's other small SUV, the Tiggo 4 that opens at $23,990 drive-away. The renaming comes despite the Omoda 5 being sold under the Omoda brand in some global markets. The battery-electric Chery Omoda E5 will also be renamed Chery E5, with pricing and specifications yet to be announced. The renamed and facelifted Chery C5 is arriving in showrooms this month. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. There will be just two C5 trim levels, down from three Omoda 5s. The top-spec Ultimate is priced at $34,990 drive-away. The entry-level Urban's price might be $2000 higher than that of the outgoing entry-level Omoda 5 FX, but it includes equipment missing from its predecessor, such as LED headlights and colour-adjustable ambient interior lighting. It also receives a new six-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, replacing the old continuously variable transmission (CVT), and adopts the multi-link rear suspension from the defunct Omoda 5 GT instead of a torsion-beam rear-end. The C5 also has a restyled face, which includes a new but still intricately patterned grille, while boot space has been expanded by 10 litres to 370L. The turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine under the bonnet is unchanged, producing 108kW of power and 210Nm of torque. Standard equipment on the C5 Urban includes: 17-inch alloy wheels LED headlights Automatic high-beam 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Leatherette-wrapped steering wheel Cloth upholstery Adaptive cruise control Blind-spot monitoring Rear cross-traffic assist Traffic Jam Assist The C5 Ultimate adds: 18-inch alloy wheels Red brake calipers Power tailgate Power sunroof 8-speaker Sony sound system 50W wireless phone charger Leatherette upholstery Heated front seats Dual-zone climate control Surround-view camera To the end of April, Chery has delivered 1837 Omoda 5 vehicles in Australia this year, making it the brand's second best-seller after the Tiggo 4. The company is launching more brands in our market, with Jaecoo being the first cab off the rank. Its vehicles will be sold alongside unspecified models from the Omoda brand, which is due to be launched here during the second half of 2025.
