It seems that Omoda & Jaecoo Malaysia has still planned a number of large new launches, despite the debuting of the Jaecoo J7 PHEV and J8 in the past eight months. From 21 to 24 August, the company will hold the Omoda & Jaecoo Carnival in Desa Park City, and an apparently harmless promo image reveals some surprising new models.
We have of course seen both overseas before. The most important of these is the J5, unveiled last year as a smaller (and therefore cheaper) brother or sister to the popular J7. With his straight-line Range Rover Evoque-Lite design it should be selling it as the proverbial hot cakes.
The car made its Asean debut in Indonesia in February as an EV (before it appeared in Thailand), but it will probably be offered in gasoline in the beginning. That version was shown at the Goodwood Festival of Speed last month with deliveries that start later this year in the UK. The company previously promised a Malaysian launch in the fourth quarter of the year, and it seems that it will introduce a car on time for once.
Power comes from Chery’s omnipresent 1.6 liter turbo engine with four -cylinder engine. Until now, no output figures have been released, but expect them to reflect the J7s-137 PS and 290 Nm of torque, probably sent to the front wheels by the seven-speed gearbox with seven gears with double clutch.
The other surprise is the Omoda C9 PHEV, as the name suggests, is the plug-in hybrid version of the five-seater D-segment SUV. In February we drove the car to victory in an eco -challenging in South Africa, with 939 km from Cape Town to cover a single tank and battery charge.
The PHEV sees practically identical to its combustion engine, and uses an improved version of the Super Hybrid System (SHS) of the J7 PHEV, centered around the same 143 PS/215 Nm 1.5 liter turbo engine. In contrast to its smaller brother or sister, the C9 receives triple electric motors for four-wheel drive-one 102 PS/170 Nm and 122 PS/220 Nm pairs of pre-drawers and a 238 PS/310 Nm rear engine. There is also a dedicated hybrid transmission (DHT) with three gears instead of the J7 single-greeder.
All in all, the C9 PHEV 537 PS (Australian-Market figure, other markets claims 598 PS and 915 Nm of torque), so that it is received from zero to 100 km/h in 4.9 seconds. In the meantime, a 34.46 kWh nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) battery supplies an electric range of 150 km on the WLTP cycle, and in combination with a 70 -liter fuel tank, the total range is 1,100 km.
In terms of charging, the C9 PHEV supports up to 70 kW DC quickly, so that the battery is supplemented in 25 minutes from 30 to 80%. It also accepts AC chargers up to 6.6 kW, it takes five and a half hours to charge from 30 to 100%. With the regular C9 on RM188,800 for the AWD model, the plug-in version in just below the RM200,000 expects.
