In today's hardcore off-road segment, numerous brands have successively launched models with distinctive features. Yet models that combine a large-capacity battery with true four-wheel drive are extremely rare. On May 26, the Jetour Shanhai T1 made a striking debut, equipped with a 43.2kWh large-capacity battery, a pure electric range of 226km, a comprehensive range of up to 1500km, and a three-motor four-wheel-drive system. The vehicle is priced between 134,900 yuan and 179,900 yuan, and buyers can also enjoy a 10,000-yuan trade-in subsidy and a 20,000-yuan national subsidy. It can be foreseen that the 2025 Jetour Shanhai T1 will surely stand out in the 150,000-yuan-class SUV market and become a dark horse.
A car's powertrain is always its core. Whether it is the off-road boom, the rise of hybrid power, or the arrival of new-energy SUVs, all depend on this key element. In terms of power, the 2025 Jetour Shanhai T1 inherits the essence of the Kunpeng Super Hybrid C-DM technology and achieves all-around improvements in performance. With the support of the P1+P3+P4 three-motor layout and the contribution of the Kunpeng 1.5TD dedicated hybrid engine, the system's combined power reaches 440kW, rivaling even a V12 engine. The 840N·m system combined torque ensures that the vehicle can deliver strong power output under any operating condition.
Moreover, the three-motor configuration is exquisitely integrated with the DHT dedicated transmission, together forming the XWD fully automatic intelligent four-wheel-drive system, giving drivers as many as 8 driving mode options. Among them, the unique off-road mode can adapt to different road conditions and terrains, helping drivers quickly switch into four-wheel drive. Even for users who are not good at aggressive driving, it allows them to confidently handle complex road conditions and achieve intelligent torque distribution.
In addition to high performance and high passability, the 2025 Jetour Shanhai T1 is also equipped with a 43.2kWh large-capacity battery pack from CATL, which can not only meet the needs of long-distance travel and outdoor exploration in multiple scenarios, but also achieve zero fuel consumption for daily commuting thanks to its 226km pure electric range. Coupled with the P3+P4 motors on the front and rear wheels, daily driving feels more electric, thereby creating an all-purpose driving experience of electricity for daily use, fuel for high speeds, and hybrid power for off-roading.
It is worth mentioning that this hybrid system can well meet diverse vehicle-use needs such as outdoor camping. The vehicle's 220V power interface can continuously provide power support for in-car electrical equipment; its 2.2kWh + 6.6kWh internal and external discharge function allows outdoor equipment such as projectors, electric stoves, and coffee machines to shine in camping scenarios, bringing endless fun to outings and travel.
In terms of versatility of use, the 2025 Jetour Shanhai T1 can be said to go all out. It has a tall and wide body of 4706/1967/1845mm and a wheelbase of 2810mm. This performance not only exceeds the level of SUVs in the same class, but also creates spacious seating space for front and rear passengers. In addition, the trunk's basic volume of 850L, combined with a fully flat folding design that can expand to 1800L, perfectly balances the dual needs of family transport and outdoor camping.
Although the Jetour Shanhai T1 originates from a traditional automaker, thanks to the technical support of the powerful Chery Group behind it, it is equipped with an advanced intelligent system capable of competing with high-end emerging brands. The interior is simple yet luxurious, cleverly combining a modern technological feel with the sturdy structure of classic off-road vehicles. Among these, the embedded digital instrument panel and the 15.6-inch touchscreen display become the core highlights of the console. In addition, the multifunction armrest, the carefully designed air vent layout, the enlarged electronic gear shifter, and the rotary controller specially set for off-road mode jointly ensure driving convenience and comfort under various complex road conditions.
In terms of intelligent configuration, the 2025 Jetour Shanhai T1 is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, giving the infotainment system outstanding performance. The intelligent voice interaction function across the vehicle's four sound zones ensures that every passenger can conveniently enjoy multimedia entertainment and quickly adjust comfort settings such as seat heating and ventilation. In addition, the vehicle is also compatible with HUAWEI HiCar/Apple CarPlay phone ecosystem connectivity, fully satisfying the vehicle-use preferences of various users. Paired with high-end configurations such as SONY audio, active interactive ambient lighting, and an optional in-car refrigerator, it undoubtedly creates an atmospheric mobile space for drivers and passengers.
The launch of the 2025 Jetour Shanhai T1 fills the market gap in the 150,000-yuan-class hardcore off-road SUV segment. The combination of a large battery + three-motor four-wheel drive makes it the only model at the same price point that has off-road capability while also accommodating family use and daily commuting. If you do not like fuel vehicles and want a highly distinctive hardcore off-road SUV, then it is definitely a choice worth considering!
