The Malaysia 4WD Training and Experience Centre (M4TREC) recently played host to Jaecoo as the brand put its upcoming model, the J7 SUV, through a set of rigorous off-road performance tests, testing off-road capability handling.
Having passed all the tests without any issues, the folks at Jaecoo Malaysia mentioned that this exercise was done to show potential customers and stakeholders how capable the J7 SUV is.
To ensure a thorough assessment of the J7, M4TREC’s expert trainers set up a variety of challenging obstacles during testing, including roller ramps, articulation tests, ridge crossings, steep slope descents and more. Confronted with a multitude of tests, the J7 exhibited the peer-leading ability to get out of tough road conditions as
well as impact resistance, effortlessly conquering diverse obstacles.
The J7 is equipped with a 1.6TGDI engine, delivering 197PS and a peak torque of 290Nm, on par with luxury brands’ 2.0T engines. In addition, the J7 is outfitted with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (7DCT), enabling lightning-fast gear shifts in mere 0.2 seconds. The seamless and smooth shifting ensured the engine and vehicle exhibit superior power and handling performance during testing.
Furthermore, the J7 features an international superb chassis tuning, delivering exceptional results in the moose test at 80 km/h. Comparable to premium luxury vehicles, this ensures excellent handling performance and safety for the vehicle.
Notably, the J7 incorporates the advanced All Road Drive Intelligent System (ARDIS), allowing for 0.1 second 4WD instant intervention. Moreover, the application of the
Integrated Power Brake (IPB) system brings forth eight key advantages, including high integration, faster braking, no performance decay, and automatic intervention.
These advancements significantly elevate the safety measures and driving comfort of the J7, enabling it to easily navigate through various road conditions and unexpected situations.
As the economy in Southeast Asia continues to thrive, the scale of the new elite segment is expanding, and there is a rising demand among consumers for sophisticated off-road adventures.
Through this demanding off-road test, the J7 fully demonstrates its stability and reliability on complex terrains, aligning perfectly with the mobility needs
of the urban new elites who pursue a high quality of life and possess unique tastes. It is believed that the extraordinary J7 can deliver a superior and unparalleled
mobility experience for Malaysian consumers.
At the same time, JAECOO will remain dedicated to refining its brand essence to provide more robust momentum in expanding into the Southeast Asian market especially in Malaysia.
