The official premiere of the new Shanhai line of the Chery brand Jetour took place in China, it will include electrified models, the first-born being the Shanhai L9, made on the basis of the purely “hydrocarbon” family crossover Jetour X90 Plus, already known in Russia.
The expansion of the Jetour model range is bearing fruit: sales of this Chery subsidiary brand in China in the first three quarters of 2023, according to CAAM (China Association of Automobile Manufacturers), increased compared to sales in January-September 2022 by 19.9% to 120,892 cars, additional growth should be provided by the electrified (read — hybrid) line of Shanhai with its own logo. Over the next two years, the Shanhai line will include eight different hybrids, and the first model will be the large plug-in hybrid crossover Jetour Shanhai L9 with three rows of seats.
From the original “hydrocarbon” crossover with the index X90, which has been produced since 2019, the hybrid Shanhai L9 differs in fashionable narrowed “optics” and more refined decor, but the traction battery screwed to the bottom has somewhat spoiled the profile and reduced the ground clearance. It is curious that the official renderings of the new product do not show the battery “sag” under the bottom, but in live photographs of the Chinese magazine Autohome it is clearly visible, and on the starboard side the battery is bypassed by the exhaust manifold, which was initially located in the center. In short, the original body was not designed to accommodate a plug-in hybrid powertrain, so the conversion was not very neat.
