After the Jaecoo J7 was launched in Southeast Asian countries, Chery is very satisfied with its sales performance. Therefore, at the upcoming Thailand Auto Show, Chery plans to launch the PHEV version of the Jaecoo J7. Compared to Malaysia, Thailand is a better market for the Jaecoo J7 PHEV.

The Jaecoo J7 PHEV set to debut in Thailand will support a pure electric driving range of 80 kilometers (WLTP), which means that if you use the J7 for your daily commute, the fuel cost will be very low.

The Jaecoo J7 PHEV will be equipped with a 1.5T engine producing 156 horsepower, while the electric motor offers 204 horsepower, giving a combined power output of 360 horsepower and a total torque of 530Nm. This represents a significant increase in performance compared to the standard Jaecoo J7, and fuel consumption can reach 20.41 km/L. With a full tank and a fully charged battery, it can achieve a driving range of 1,300 km.

The Jaecoo J7 already launched in Malaysia is powered by a 1.6L turbocharged engine paired with a 7-speed DCT transmission, which offers slightly less power.

The Jaecoo J7 PHEV is now available for pre-order in Malaysia. So, is it worth paying attention to this car? Without considering the fact that oil is cheaper in Malaysia, PHEV cars provide a smoother driving experience, making the Jaecoo J7 PHEV a better quality driving option. From the manufacturer’s perspective, PHEVs also contribute to the development of EV cars. Allowing more people to experience the driving experience of electric vehicles will likely make more Malaysians fall in love with EVs.

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?

Perodua Traz VS Ativa, which one is more worth buying?

Traz, as a newly launched mid-sized SUV, offers more spacious room and mainstream power compared to small SUVs, but its pricing appears slightly higher than that of Ativa. Ativa, on the other hand, is Perodua's long-time best-selling small SUV with more affordable pricing and a balanced combination of power and tech features.

Perodua Traz VS Toyota Yaris Cross, where does the Traz fall short?

Before the official launch of the Perodua Traz, market expectations were actually very high because it shares the same DNGA platform as the Toyota Yaris Cross. However, sharing the same platform does not equate to the same experience, and the Traz's final performance has indeed been disappointing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the delayed launch that it has almost no competitiveness in the current competitive environment.

Will the Toyota Yaris Cross come to Malaysia? If it comes, how much will it sell for?

The launch of Perodua Traz indicates that the market size of small SUVs in Malaysia has been expanding in recent years. However, the question naturally shifts back to Toyota. As a brand with the most comprehensive product line and a strong foundation in both the SUV and hybrid sectors, will Toyota choose the Yaris Cross to participate in this small SUV competition?

Why is the Toyota Sienna so popular with so many people?

In Malaysia, most family MPVs choose Toyota Alphard, Vellfire, or Kia Carnival. These models each have their advantages in luxury, space, or brand influence, but models that truly balance large space, multifunctional practicality, fuel efficiency, and reliability are rarely seen.
