In the complex and competitive automotive market, whether a product can stand out often depends on how deeply it understands the specific needs of its target users. The Jetour Shanhai L7 PLUS series does not blindly pursue all-around capability; instead, it provides different configurations to precisely meet diverse lifestyles. The five-seat flagship model, by giving up the seldom-used third-row seats, focuses all its efforts on ultimate ride comfort, luxurious features, and cargo capacity—offering a compelling new option for those seeking a premium large five-seater experience.

At first glance, the vehicle’s near-B-segment SUV size leaves an impression of solidity and stability. With a length of 4,810 mm, width of 1,930 mm, height of 1,705 mm, and a wheelbase of 2,820 mm, it achieves balanced and elegant proportions. Compared with the seven-seat version, the five-seater’s body lines appear more streamlined, emphasizing visual unity. The vehicle is equipped with an openable panoramic sunroof, greatly enhancing the sense of openness and allowing sunlight and scenery to accompany every journey. The 235/55 R19 tire specification, paired with multi-spoke aluminum alloy wheels, balances comfort and aesthetics.
The cabin interior is the core charm of the five-seat flagship version. The 2+3 seat layout eliminates the third row, significantly freeing up second-row legroom and expanding the trunk space. A 180 cm-tall occupant sitting in the driver’s seat, adjusted to the lowest position, still has a headroom clearance of about one fist and four fingers. Keeping the front seat unmoved, the same occupant moving to the rear row finds legroom exceeding two fists, with enough space to cross legs comfortably; headroom remains about one fist and two fingers—an almost class-leading performance ensuring every passenger enjoys relaxation and freedom on long trips. The seats are upholstered in synthetic leather with a fine texture and precise stitching.

Seat functionality in the five-seat flagship model can be described as luxurious. Both front seats support electric adjustment, including fore-and-aft movement, backrest angle, and height adjustment. Notably, the driver’s seat features 4-way power lumbar support and a rare 10-point pneumatic massage system that effectively relieves driving fatigue. The front seats are also equipped with heating and ventilation, adopting a unique “seat cushion blowing, backrest suction” design for greater comfort and to avoid the discomfort of direct airflow. The front passenger seat includes a “boss key,” allowing rear passengers to easily adjust its position, creating a more spacious right rear seating area. The rear seats offer backrest recline adjustment and can optionally include a boss key as well, further enhancing overall comfort. A practical highlight is the 30 kg-rated second-row foldable table integrated into the rear center armrest—ideal for holding a tablet, working, or dining conveniently and stably.
The powertrain remains consistent with its sibling models, featuring the mature Kunpeng Super Hybrid C-DM system. The dedicated 1.5TGDI hybrid engine delivers a maximum power of 115 kW and a peak torque of 220 N·m, with an impressive 44.5% thermal efficiency forming the foundation for low fuel consumption. The P1+P3 dual-motor eCVT hybrid system provides 150 kW motor power and 310 N·m motor torque, resulting in a combined system output of 265 kW and a total torque of 530 N·m. The official 0–100 km/h acceleration time is in the 7-second range, ensuring effortless overtaking in daily driving.

Range performance is one of its strengths. The 32.66 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack (using Gotion High-Tech cells) offers a CLTC-rated pure electric range of 220 km, sufficient for over 90% of daily urban commuting. With a combined range of 1,700 km and a 70-liter fuel tank, range anxiety is effectively eliminated. The vehicle supports 75 kW DC fast charging, replenishing the battery from 30% to 80% in about 20 minutes, minimizing waiting time. Its 6.6 kW external discharge function, equivalent to the power capacity of a three-bedroom household, can drive multiple high-power appliances such as induction cookers or ovens—ideal for outdoor camping and earning it the title of a “mobile energy station.”
Ride quality is another highlight of the flagship version. It features a front MacPherson and rear multi-link independent suspension, combined with an advanced CDC electromagnetic damping system. This setup includes five body posture sensors and four intelligent electromagnetic valves, adjusting damping up to 100 times per second, with millisecond-level precision to suppress body pitch and roll. As a result, acceleration and braking remain smooth and composed. With 26 vibration-damping bushings (the largest being 80 mm in diameter) and long suspension travel (200 mm front, 193 mm rear), it effectively filters out road irregularities, creating a premium “flat-road” driving experience. The vehicle’s 683 kg load capacity ensures stability even when fully loaded with passengers and luggage.

Safety performance forms the foundation of peace of mind. The five-seat flagship model adopts a cage-type body structure with 86% high-strength steel, including 21% hot-stamped steel with a maximum strength of 1,500 MPa. A lesser-known but impressive specification is its torsional rigidity of 25,000 N·m/deg—comparable to that of safety-oriented Volvo models—ensuring minimal deformation during impact and protecting the cabin. The “Guardian Safety Battery” features IP68 ultra-waterproof capability (96 times the national standard, tolerating 1 meter of immersion for 48 hours) and a 20-ton compression resistance structure with a 1,300 MPa protective steel plate beneath the pack, making it resistant to water, fire, and collision. The vehicle has also received CATARC’s 5A Healthy Cabin Certification, achieving A-level standards in clean air, antibacterial materials, health-oriented design, electromagnetic protection, and noise insulation. Environmentally friendly materials such as water-based adhesives, baby-grade fabrics, and low-odor sponges further enhance comfort.
The intelligent experience keeps pace with modern trends. The 15.6-inch rotating “Sunflower Screen” serves as the cabin’s focal point, tilting 10° left or right, paired with four-zone voice control for a high-tech feel. The built-in Lingjie AI voice model acts as an onboard expert, capable of explaining automotive knowledge, answering general queries, and even providing travel recommendations. The new TOUR OS 3.0 infotainment system is smooth and user-friendly. Its L2-level driver assistance system includes full-speed adaptive cruise control, automatic lane change, ramp entering/exiting, and both city and highway navigation-assisted driving, significantly reducing long-distance fatigue. Automatic parking, remote parking, memory parking, and cross-floor parking (storing up to 20 routes of 2 km each) make parking effortless.

In terms of comfort and convenience, the five-seat flagship is virtually fully equipped. Standard features include an electric tailgate with position memory, one-touch anti-pinch windows, electrically folding/heated mirrors with auto-folding lock, multi-layer acoustic glass, rain-sensing wipers, and dual-zone automatic climate control. A particularly luxurious highlight is its built-in refrigerator located in the center armrest—offering a 6.4L capacity, temperature range from -6°C to 50°C, UV sterilization, and 24-hour preservation after shutdown. Whether chilling beverages or warming milk and tea, it enhances every travel moment with refinement.
In summary, the Jetour Shanhai L7 PLUS 2025 220 km Five-Seat Flagship Edition is a model that embodies the wisdom of “strategic trade-offs.” By sacrificing the rarely used third row, it gains exceptional second-row space, class-leading comfort features, and a large, well-shaped trunk. With its “travel mini RV” positioning focused on premium 2–4 person journeys, it delivers practicality and luxury through details such as CDC adaptive suspension, comprehensive safety protection, an onboard refrigerator, and a second-row table. For users who prioritize space, features, and long-distance travel comfort, this large five-seat SUV is undoubtedly a rational yet attractive choice.
