First-Time PHEV Buyer? 5 Reasons Why the JAECOO J7 PHEV: SHS Should Be Your Intro to Hybrid Driving

First-Time PHEV Buyer? 5 Reasons Why the JAECOO J7 PHEV: SHS Should Be Your Intro to Hybrid Driving

So you've decided you need an upgrade, and but are wary of going full electric. You're keen on a hybrid but are overwhelmed by the options—mild, full, or PHEV? The world of hybrid driving can seem complex at first, with different technologies, charging requirements, and features to consider. 

But no worries, we got you. If you're ready to take your first step into the world of hybrids, the JAECOO J7 PHEV: SHS might be the perfect vehicle to ease you in. Here are 5 reasons why this plug-in hybrid or PHEV SUV is a great option.

1. User-Friendly Technology 

As a first-time hybrid buyer, you're probably looking forward to having innovative technology at your disposal but are concerned about whether you'll be able to handle it. The JAECOO J7 PHEV: SHS takes the guesswork out of hybrid driving. The Super Hybrid System (SHS) is the beating heart of this next-gen PHEV SUV that intuitively switches seamlessly between electric and petrol power using automated intelligence systems. The vehicle's smart energy management system optimizes performance based on your driving conditions, so you can focus on enjoying the ride rather than fiddling with settings and modes. 

However, that doesn't mean you lack complete control over the car. With a large 10.25” instrument cluster, a 14.8” touchscreen infotainment system, and heads-up display, everything you need to know about the PHEV SUV is clear and accessible, showing everything from your battery level, fuel efficiency, air-conditioning to drive modes in a way that makes sense to newcomers. 

2. Ultra Long Electric Range for Daily Commuting

Many first-time PHEV buyers have range anxiety, a legit concern in Malaysia's emerging electric charging infrastructure. The J7 PHEV: SHS offers a long electric-only driving range of 90km (WLTP) which capably tackles daily commutes. This is peer-leading range.  Powered by a lithium iron phosphate (LFP) 18.3kWh battery with top-notch thermal management technology, you'll be able to commute, manage grocery runs, and other daily needs purely on electric power. With a large chunk (possibly all) of your daily drive electric powered, your petrol expenses are kept to a minimum—which means more money in your pocket. 

Once you hit the highways for longer trips, the fifth-generation high-efficiency 1.5TGDI DHE (Dedicated Hybrid Engine) kicks in automatically, delivering a combined ultra-long range of up to 1,200km (WLTP) on a single 60L tank. That's confidence and peace of mind you won't get with a fully electric vehicle.

3. Multiple Charging Options That Fit Your Lifestyle

The J7 PHEV: SHS addresses charging concerns with flexible options that fit seamlessly into your routine. A unique feature for a PHEV SUV, it supports three methods: AC charging from a regular household three-pin plug (3.3kW), AC charging with a wallbox (up to 6.6kW), and DC fast charging (40kW). With these, you can charge from 30–80% in just 20 minutes on DC, 0–100% in about 3 hours 20 minutes on AC 6.6kW, or roughly 8 hours on AC 3.3kW.

4. Premium and Practical 

The J7 PHEV: SHS offers a roomy interior made with premium quality materials that will comfortably seat your family, friends and your gear too. As befitting a premium SUV brand in Malaysia, JAECOO packs in a long list of features in every car, and this PHEV SUV has all the functionality and the creature comforts usually available in more expensive brands. 

5. Own with Confidence 

OMODA & JAECOO Malaysia offers a comprehensive warranty of 7 years or 150,000 km, plus an additional 8-year or 160,000 km warranty for the hybrid battery pack, motor, and controller unit. Furthermore, the vehicle is locally-assembled in Shah Alam, Selangor with a local 88,000-square-foot spare parts warehouse with approximately 10,000 components and spare parts in stock so you never have to worry about long wait times for parts replacements. 

Making your first PHEV SUV purchase doesn't have to be intimidating. The JAECOO J7 PHEV:SHS makes the transition to electrified driving  accessible with practical features, reliable performance, and genuine value with pricing of just RM158,800 on-the-road. If you're looking for one of the best PHEV SUVs in Malaysia, look no further.
