London, 17 April 2025 – JAECOO’s flagship self-charging hybrid SUV, the JAECOO 7 SHS, has achieved the highest possible five-star safety rating from Euro NCAP (European New Car Assessment Programme). This significant milestone underscores JAECOO’s unwavering commitment to delivering vehicles that prioritise safety as well as innovation, technology and quality.
The Euro NCAP assessment highlighted the JAECOO 7 SHS’s exceptional performance in key safety categories, including Adult Occupant Protection, Child Occupant Protection, Vulnerable Road Users, and Safety Assist technologies. Notably, the vehicle scored 81% in Adult Occupant Protection and 80% in Safety Assist, reflecting its robust safety features and advanced driver assistance systems.
Equipped with up to 21 advanced driver assistance systems, the JAECOO 7 SHS offers features such as Autonomous Emergency Braking, Forward Collision Warning, and an Intelligent Avoidance System that alerts drivers when passing wide vehicles like trucks. These technologies work in tandem to provide a comprehensive safety net for both the driver and passengers.
The JAECOO 7 SHS’ structural integrity also contributes to its top-tier safety rating. With a body composed of 80% high-strength steel, the JAECOO 7 SHS offers enhanced protection in the event of a collision.
“Securing a five-star Euro NCAP rating is a significant endorsement of our commitment to safety on a global scale. The JAECOO 7 SHS is built on the Chery International platform – designed to integrate intelligent engineering, advanced technologies, and rigorous testing to meet the highest levels of occupant protection. This recognition highlights our global safety standards and reinforces our dedication to delivering that same level of assurance to drivers in the UK,” said Gary Lan, CEO of JAECOO UK.
In addition to its safety accolades, the JAECOO 7 SHS boasts impressive efficiency from its self-charging system with WLTP fuel efficiency of 403 mpg and a range of 745 miles. Unlike typical PHEV systems, the SHS ensures the electric battery remains charged and never drops to 0%.
Priced from £35,165 OTR, all JAECOO 7 SHS models come with a comprehensive 7-year, 100,000-mile manufacturer’s warranty, alongside an 8-year battery warranty, providing peace of mind to UK buyers. The NCAP news comes shortly after the JAECOO brand’s UK launch earlier this year, with nearly 2,000 JAECOO 7 SHS models sold since 31 January 2025.
JAECOO’s sister brand, OMODA, and its (all-electric) OMODA E5 and (petrol-powered) OMODA 5 scored five-star safety ratings from NCAP, too.
