Jaecoo 7 PHEV: Die Briten lieben dieses Auto – warum eigentlich?

Köln/Düsseldorf – The British have always had an unconventional taste in cars. While French and German buyers prefer domestic brands, the island has been dominated by brands like Ford and Nissan for at least a decade. Two years ago, a new brand entered the scene that many in Germany might raise an eyebrow to: Jaecoo? Rarely heard of in these parts.

In Britain, however, the Jaecoo 7 was the most sold car in September, even outperforming the Tesla Model 3 and the Ford Puma. Nearly 40,000 units were sold in the previous year alone. The question remains: how did this happen? The answer is not surprising – Jaecoo is, of course, a Chinese automaker. Chery, the fifth-largest manufacturer in China, launched the brand in 2023 exclusively for export. It is not available in China itself, being sold under the Chery Tansuo 06 name in its home market.
