Jaecoo J7 of the Russian assembly will have a motor inaccessible to the imported model

As the Chinese Cars portal found out, a crossover, the assembly of which has already been localized in Russia, will be offered with two power plants to choose from. In the first case, it will be a 1.6-liter engine already familiar to the Russians, but in the summer the second will join this version with a 1.5-liter engine. It is noteworthy, the Jaecoo J7, which comes to us from China, has no such unit.

The JAECOO J7 with a 1.6-liter ICE is already produced by a large-sized method at the former Hende Motor Manuupacturing Rus-now the company operates under the Sample AGR Automobile Plant. A modification with a 1.5 engine will be produced on another St. Petersburg site – the one that Hyundai once bought from General Motors, and which, like the AGR Automobile Plant, is currently managed by AGR. There will also be “prescribed” J8, and the cars will be produced under the Jland or Solaris brand.
