Yesterday, the Nishat Group launched the all-new JAECOO J7 PHEV, a locally assembled, mid-sized plug-in hybrid (PHEV) SUV. With its price tag, it competes with well-known mid-sized PHEVs, including the MG HS PHEV and HAVAL H6 PHEV.
Turning our attention to the JAECOO J7, this PHEV SUV comes in two variants: the lower-trim Comfort and the top-spec Premium.
The Premium variant is priced at an ex-factory rate of Rs. 9,999,000 (1 Crore), while the price of the Comfort variant is currently undisclosed as of the publication of this comparison.
However, we do have the spec sheet for both variants. Therefore, let’s take a closer look at the key differences between the lower-trim and top-trim versions:
