Having made an impressive start to its first year of sales since launch Chinese car maker JAECOO has announced two new variations to its best-selling JAECOO 7 line-up: a new black edition and the brand’s first full-hybrid model, the JAECOO 7 SHS-H.
The new JAECOO 7 SHS-P Black Luxury introduces a visual upgrade to the plug-in hybrid SHS model, priced from €42,177/£36,500 and available exclusively in top-of-the-range Luxury specification. It features a blacked-out design treatment, including a black front grille, black logo suite across the vehicle, and a black “Luxury” C-pillar badge. Further full black detailing includes black mirrors, roof, wheels and roof rails, as well as interior elements such as a black headliner and sun visors.
Alongside the Black Luxury edition, the new JAECOO 7 SHS-H introduces a full-hybrid variant for the first time, offering a convenient route into electrified driving without the need to plug in. It is available in two trim levels – Pure and Deluxe – with prices starting from €33,736/£29,195 and €37,895/£32,795 respectively. Pure grade comes with tweed cloth upholstery, a 33cm/13-inch infotainment screen, wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto, refrigerated centre-console, dual-zone climate control, and a 6-speaker sound system, plus front and rear parking sensors as standard. The Deluxe model builds on this, adding eco-leather upholstery, an 8-speaker sound system and a 35cm/14-inch infotainment screen, among other upgrades.
Power comes from a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine paired with a self-charging hybrid system, delivering 224 PS, a 0-100kph/62 mph time of 8.3 seconds and a top speed of 180km/112 mph. As a powertrain dedicated to hybrid use, the 1.5-litre unit offers an extra-urban fuel economy of 4.43 litres per100km/53 mpg.
These new variants arrive as JAECOO in the UK builds on the momentum of an impressive debut year. With more than 35,000 new vehicle registrations here in the UK since launch and a rapidly expanding dealer network, electrification has played a central role in that growth.
All JAECOO 7 variants – including these two new additions – are supported by the brand’s 7-year/160,000km/100,000-mile warranty, with one year of complimentary RAC breakdown cover included as standard. The all-new JAECOO 7 SHS-P Black Luxury and the JAECOO 7 SHS-H will be available to order from May 2026.
