Video Summary

Here is the summary of the YouTube video review:

The JAECOO J7 is part of the Cherry Group, an off-roady inspired, premium small SUV. Cherry sold 2.5 million cars in 2024.

Both Core and Track versions get 18-inch alloy wheels with Cooper tires. There’s LED lighting, pop-out door handles with proximity unlocking, and keyless entry. All have a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and a 13.2-inch touchscreen media system with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, standard sat nav, and digital radio. The J7 is covered in fake leather.

There is a higher grade "Track" model with front seat heating, 360-degree surround view camera, dual-zone climate control, and front and rear parking sensors. Panoramic glass roof is not included.

The JAECOO J7 Core is expected to cost between $35,000-$40,000, with the Track model costing several thousand more.

Other SUVs in the same class: the rough and tumble SsangYong Torres and the off-road ready Suzuki Jimny XL. For a "Tech"-heavy SUV, consider the GWM Tank 300.

The reviewer found the following:
* Overall, he found it quite agreeable.
* This SUV is high on safety.
* The driver monitoring camera is silent.
* On most surfaces, the ride comfort is quite good.
*The "on-trend" door handles has a good look.
* Not many cars are in the class of SUVs.
* Suspension has a pillowy feel and can clang over sharp bumps.
* Steering is a bit odd and the wheel feels too big.
* Brakes can be hard to judge.
* He thinks the car doesn’t really feel all that luxurious.

Overall, the reviewer likes the design and space but he may or may not choose one for himself. He looks forward to testing the plug-in hybrid and doing a full range test.
