The Jaecoo brand is making its way onto the international market after its debut thanks to the J7 SUV. However, the Chery group brand is already expanding its model range with the arrival of the Jaecoo J8, a large SUV which will represent the flagship of the Chinese brand.
Development
In developing this high-wheeled model, the designers of the Asian car manufacturer took inspiration from the world of aviation: being on board the Jaecoo J8 must be an experience similar to that offered by first-class air travel. This philosophy inspired, for example, the new seats. The occupants, in fact, sit on armchairs covered in prestigious NAPPA leather that are large, but also enveloping, which offer numerous electrical adjustments, as well as the possibility of heating, ventilation and various massage functions.
The comfort of Jaecoo J8
Comfort on board is also guaranteed by numerous other factors. First of all, the chassis with active suspension with a “Zero Gravity” effect. This system, which uses a MacPherson strut at the front and a multilink at the rear, to ensure maximum independence for each wheel, controls in real time the stresses to which the car is subjected and reacts extremely quickly – in the order of a millisecond – to filter out the roughness of the road as much as possible and keep the passenger compartment as if “suspended”, giving the occupants the sensation of traveling in the absence of gravity.
The powertrain
Jaecoo J8 uses a modern third generation plug-in hybrid powertrain which guarantees brilliant performance and great fluidity in all driving conditions. Consisting of a turbo petrol engine combined with a 7-speed dual clutch gearbox and an electric module, it develops a total power of 445 kW and a torque of 915 Nm sent to the ground through a sophisticated intelligent all-wheel drive scheme. This regulates the distribution of traction on the individual wheels according to six driving programs selectable by the driver which adapt to all road surfaces and different off-road surfaces.
