/PRZWT/Not long ago, the 2025 JETOUR Zongheng Night and the pre-sale launch event of the Zongheng G700 were held in Shanghai. With the announcement of the pre-sale price of the JETOUR Zongheng G700, the Zongheng G700 will launch a strong impact on the traditional luxury off-road market pattern and challenge the "million-dollar" traditional luxury off-road camp such as the Land Rover Range Rover and the Mercedes-Benz G-Class.
With the technological innovation and policy support of China's automotive industry, the pattern that only those in the million-yuan class could enjoy luxury off-road vehicles is being broken. The arrival of the JETOUR Zongheng G700 is not merely the launch of a product; it also represents a value reconstruction of Chinese brands in the luxury off-road sector.
The Zongheng G700 is positioned as an "all-domain luxury electric hybrid off-road SUV". With a highly competitive pre-sale price ranging from 349,900 to 429,900 yuan, it has made a strong entry into the market. The emergence of the Zongheng G700 has attracted widespread attention both within and outside the industry. So, what enables the G700 to gain a firm foothold and secure a place in the highly competitive luxury off-road market?
The basic framework for the forward development of the G700 for off-road driving
"Defining new coordinates in all directions, luxury off-road vehicles reach new heights." In the long course of the automotive industry's development, Chery, based on its profound heritage and 28 years of consistent vehicle manufacturing experience, has continuously explored the boundaries and possibilities of automotive manufacturing. Relying on 13 years of collaborative experience with Jaguar Land Rover and drawing on the advanced concepts and technological essence of luxury brands, Chery has specially developed the Kunpeng Super Hybrid CDM-O system for the Zongheng G700. This innovative achievement will lead luxury off-road vehicles to a brand-new height.
Among them, the 2.0T D hybrid-specific engine, combined with the true four-wheel drive combination of P1+P3+P4 three motors, achieves a combined power of 665kW, a peak torque of 1135N · m, and a 0-100km/h acceleration of 4.6 seconds. This figure not only exceeds the maximum power of 635kW of the Tank 500 Hi4-Z, but also leaves behind the Leopard 8, which has a power of 180kW and a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 4.8 seconds.
It is worth noting that the Zongheng G700 high-integration longitudinal front-wheel drive 2DHT hybrid-specific transmission is the world's first to feature a clutchless technology. The P1+P3+P4 electric hybrid off-road architecture features P1 motor power generation and P3/P4 motors dedicated to power output, achieving true four-wheel drive with three motors. It offers four-wheel drive when fully charged or depleted. Even when climbing slopes in deserts or getting out of difficult situations in muddy terrain, power remains undiminished and four-wheel drive is never absent. This completely resolves the pain point of traditional dual-motor hybrids where "depletion turns into two-wheel drive". The G700's front and rear electronic toothed differential locks and energy medium lock have a power distribution response speed of less than 100 milliseconds when getting stuck in sand, and the total wheel end torque can reach 16,000 N · m. Compared with the intelligent four-wheel drive of the Tank 500 and the dual differential locks of the Leopard 8, it has obvious advantages.
The previous impression of off-roading as a "gas guzzler" ended with the "Zongheng". The G700 has a fuel consumption of only 7.95L/100km when the battery is depleted, far outperforming the 8.6L/100km of the Tank 500 Hi4-Z. With a combined range of over 1,400 kilometers, it is fully capable of meeting the long-distance crossing needs in the northwest and other areas. Catl 800V off-road hybrid dedicated battery, 4C fast charging, supports 30% to 80% charging in just 10 minutes, truly allowing you to charge and go at any time.
From urban comfort to the hardcore of uninhabited areas, can it truly be covered
As an "all-domain luxury hybrid off-road SUV", how does the G700 conquer the city and the wilderness with its vertical and horizontal aesthetics?
In the 2025 China Silk Road Rally, the unmodified Zongheng G700 successfully conquered five stages and claimed the championship. With an approach Angle of 40.3° and a departure Angle of 32.3°, combined with an air suspension that can be raised by 90mm, the ground clearance reaches 320mm, which is 27% higher than that of the Wrangler. Even when climbing slopes in the desert, the power can be on call at any time. Although the Leopard 8 has the "Leopard U-turn" function, the fact that its maximum torque is 760N · m, compared with the G700's 1135N · m high torque and the motor's millisecond-level power response, still leaves room for improvement in the starting experience on sand. The Tank 500, lacking an air suspension system, is unable to raise its chassis and is more prone to rubbing against large potholes.
In addition, the IP68-level water resistance directly increases the wading capacity to 970mm, which is nearly 200mm more than that of the Leopard 8 and also safer than the maximum wading capacity of 800mm of the Tank 500, making it more comfortable to cross rivers during the rainy season.
In urban driving, the air suspension and CDC variable damping suspension of the Zongheng G700 offer shock absorption performance comparable to that of luxury sedans. The Huawei Gankun Intelligent Driving ADS 4 system, jointly developed with Huawei, has accumulated 4 billion kilometers of assisted driving "experience", which is comparable to directly equipping a dedicated car driver. In contrast, the intelligent driving function of the Tank 500 is relatively weak, and the flexibility of the Leopard 8 in urban driving is also inferior to that of the full-size Transverse G700.
In addition to the confidence of a million-level off-road vehicle, along with the global pre-sale of the Zongheng G700, the brand has also prepared eight pre-sale benefits for consumers covering the entire vehicle usage cycle - the Expansion Gift, the Renewal Gift, the Financial Gift, the Energy Replenishment Gift, the Upgrade Gift, the Limited Edition Gift, the Ecological Gift, and the Wild Enjoyment Gift.
Starting from today, you can enjoy a super trade-in cash subsidy of 25,000 yuan by presenting the vehicle registration certificate of your own or a friend's or relative's used car for registration and application, regardless of brand or corporate or individual account. It not only reflects the precise insight of the Zongheng G700 into user needs, but also extends "luxury" from the product itself to the service experience. So looking back, as a newcomer to the tough off-road genre, what makes the Zongheng G700 stand out with a pre-sale price of 400,000 yuan? Then there is the answer.
