JAECOO Philippines’ First Hybrid, the JAECOO J7 SHS Is Now Officially Range-Verified by AAP
JAECOO Philippines’ first hybrid offering J7 SHS (Super
Hybrid System) has officially been range-verified by the Automobile Association
Philippines (AAP) after driving 1,488.8 kilometers on a full tank of fuel
and on a single full charge. This is a testament to JAECOO’s commitment to
infusing its automotive engineering DNA to create sustainable mobility
solutions for Filipino urban elites.
The Jaecoo J7 SHS (Super Hybrid System) delivers a powerful
340 horsepower and 525 Newton-meters of torque, achieving a global claimed
range of up to 1,200 kilometers. Built for urban and long-distance travel, its
2,672mm wheelbase ensures a comfortable ride, while the Super Hybrid System
offers electric-only driving for efficiency and a gasoline engine for extended
range. Also featuring an advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), the JAECOO
J7 SHS caters to Filipino professionals seeking a blend of performance,
sustainability, and individuality.
The Verification Test
The Efficiency Run was monitored by the AAP, the country’s biggest and most prestigious auto club. Due to the surge of fully electric and hybrid vehicles, the AAP range verification tests the efficiency of a vehicle’s fuel and energy consumption. While manufacturers typically select routes that favor flat and fuel-efficient conditions, JAECOO Philippines opted for a more challenging and realistic approach. Hence, the J7 SHS was tested across diverse terrains –including urban roads, highways, steep uphills and descents – proving its efficiency in everyday driving scenarios.

Two J7 SHS units underwent the four-day-long verification range test. They ran on full tanks of fuel and fully charged batteries and hit speeds of 80-100 kph on highways and 40-60 kph on city and provincial roads. Following the Northern Loop Route, the vehicles took off in Biñan, Laguna in full EV mode. The vehicles then transitioned to using the hybrid mode while cruising through Ilocos Region, Cagayan, Aurora, and Nueva Ecija before arriving at a gasoline station along the Tarlac-Pangasinan-La Union Expressway (TPLEX).
The units also faced intense road conditions, including climbing 200 kilometers of steep uphill and downhill routes – terrains typically avoided in eco runs due to increased fuel consumption. This makes the J7 SHS’ verified efficiency all the more remarkable, demonstrating that its fuel economy can easily withstand real-world conditions.
Throughout the efficiency activity, the J7 SHS consumed an average fuel consumption of 24.4 km/L . Notably, one unit achieved 1,488.8 km, while the other reached 1,480.1 km, highlighting its exceptional consistency in fuel efficiency. With remaining ranges of 44 km and 24 km, respectively, these figures prove the J7 SHS’ unparalleled off-road capabilities and reliability across diverse terrains.
