Jaecoo’s big J9 luxury range-extended hybrid SUV has just been given the green light to land in the UK, according to reports, which hints at a future Aussie launch.
The Jaecco J9 is related to the Chery Fulwin T11 on sale in China. It will wear the brand’s luxury Jaecoo badge in the UK, according to AutoExpress, but it's essentially identical to the T11 apart from some styling differences.
The Fulwin T11 was launched in China in 2025 and made headlines for its claimed 1400km driving range. The Fulwin T11’s range extender hybrid system combines a 1.5-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder petrol engine with one or two motors depending on the variant for front wheel drive or all-wheel drive.
In China two batteries are available: a 33.68kWh battery for the single motor variant, and a 39.92kWh battery for the dual motor.
The system is able to offer up to 220km of electric driving range.
The range is impressive, but so is the Fulwin T11’s interior, which is expected to carry across to the Jaecoo J9.
It is a big unit at more than 5.1m long and with a wheelbase of 3.1m. The Fulwin J11 is a six-seater over three rows, with two captain’s chairs in the second and third rows. The interior is spacious, opulent and tech heavy.
A 30-inch 6K LED display runs across the Fulwin J11’s dashboard and a 17.3-inch screen is offered in the second row on all but the entry grade.
Pricing and specifications have yet to be announced for the Jaecoo J9 in the UK, but the slightly smaller Jaecoo J8 in Australia starts at $49,990 drive-away. If and when the Jaecoo J9 does land locally buyers can expect prices to begin at about $60,000.
CarsGuide has contacted Chery Australia for confirmation of the Jaecoo J9’s arrival and is still awaiting its response.
