The Super Hybrid PHEV pairs a 1.5-litre turbo petrol with three electric motors for 428 hp and 580 Nm. It delivers strong efficiency with claimed 2.1 l/100 km combined and a large 34.46 kWh battery giving 134 km of electric range. A 70-litre tank supports total range beyond 1000 km, so most daily trips stay electric if charged regularly while longer journeys need little fuel.
Servicing follows a 12-month or 10,000-mile (or 15,000 km) schedule depending on market. Capped-price plans cover multiple years in some regions. The car carries a seven-year or 100,000-mile warranty plus eight-year battery cover retaining at least 70 percent capacity, transferable and backed by roadside assistance when serviced at dealers.
Safety kit is extensive as standard with around 10 airbags including a centre bag, high-strength steel body structure at 85 percent, and a full suite of ADAS such as AEB with pedestrian and cyclist detection, adaptive cruise, lane keep, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, driver monitoring and 540-degree camera. The model itself awaits independent crash testing though related Jaecoo and Omoda models have scored five stars.
Living with the car means low running costs when charged at home, adaptive CDC suspension for comfort on varied roads, and simple ownership thanks to the long warranty. Keep to scheduled services with authorised dealers to maintain cover and enjoy the quiet, well-equipped cabin for family or long-distance use.
