Latest JAECOO models
Here’s the run-down of all of the current JAECOO models you can buy in the UK:
JAECOO 5 Petrol
)
The JAECOO 5 is the brand’s smallest model. Think of it as an alternative to the Jeep Avenger and MINI Aceman.
It comes with the choice of two trim levels – all have a 13.2-inch infotainment display with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and a 360-degree parking camera.
JAECOO 5 BEV
)
The JAECOO 5 is the electric version of the regular 5 – all the benefits of a really well-equipped compact crossover with far cheaper running cost potential.
It looks slightly different from the outside because, instead of the JAECOO 5’s big and bold grille, the 5 BEV gets a blanked off front end.
JAECOO 7 Petrol
)
JAECOO’s first car in the UK was the 7, sometimes called the JAECOO J7. It’s a petrol-powered crossover similar in size to the Nissan Qashqai and MG HS.
It, too, has a portrait-oriented 13.2-inch touchscreen with a 360-degree camera, and the wireless phone charger (rated at 50 watts, which is very quick), is cooled to prevent phone overheating.
JAECOO 7 SHS
)
SHS means Super Hybrid System – it’s JAECOO speak for a really long range. The 56-mile EV range backs up the petrol engine for a combined range of 745 miles.
It has that classic bold JAECOO grille for a distinctive look, and stacks of standard equipment, which makes it a superb rival to the Range Rover Evoque.

What’s the best JAECOO model?
)
JAECOO has a clear emphasis on value for money – all of its cars are cheaper than most rivals while still offering plenty of standard equipment, and top-spec models offer even more.
Still, some models are better for certain drivers than others:
Budget-friendly option – the prize goes to the JAECOO 5 Petrol, which is the cheapest JAECOO you can get, even though it looks just as good as the bigger 7
Luxury model – pick the top-spec JAECOO 7 Luxury, which has some upgrades like a bigger 14.8-inch touchscreen, a SONY sound system and built-in air purification
Eco-friendly version – the JAECOO 5 BEV will do 250 miles from its 61kWh battery, which not only makes it cheap to run, but also pretty economical in terms of EV standards
Long-distance driving – with 745 miles of range (or a record 840 miles during high-efficiency testing), you can nearly do the full Land’s End to John o’ Groats trip without refuelling
