Chinese car manufacturers are slowly but surely taking over the South African car market
We spent time with the new Jaecooa J7. A Bold, Stylish, Practical, and loaded with many safety and tech features you can hope to find in high-end premium cars, packed in a very attractive and competitive price tag. The New J7 price range starts at just R549,900 and tops up at R679,900 for the top derivative AWD Inferno. Under the bonnet, it comes powered by a 1.6L turbocharged 4-cylinder petrol engine with 145kW & 290Nm mated to a 7-speed DCT Transmission, with a claimed fuel consumption of 7.0L/100km for the Vortex and Glacier derivatives, while the range-topping Inferno sips around 7.8L/100 km.
In this video, we take you along a drive in the Jaecoo J7, arguably one of the best Chinese Cars in South Africa. We delve into the design, features, comfort, price, and market position.
