Specialising in road testing the latest cars, Ted is also quite the newshound, always investigating the latest industry topics and digging out new stories at any opportunity. u00A0nTed has been a car enthusiast since the start, almost inevitable growing up with a rallying-obsessed family and being ferried around in the back seat of various Subaru Imprezas u2013 the perfect family car, obviously. As a child, Ted hadxf an enviable collection of toy cars, and it was always obvious that he would channel a career linked to cars in one way or another. u00A0nAfter completing his A-levels, Ted started an NCTJ-accredited apprenticeship in journalism with automotive news agency Blackball Media. Thrown into the deep end from the start, he would soon be on the phone to press offices, submitting freedom of information requests and covering new car launches at the age of 20.u00A0u00A0u00A0nTed worked his way up to staff writer at Blackball Media, in a varied role that would cover news, features and a growing focus on new car reviews, writing the latest first drives on everything from the new Dacia Sandero to Lamborghinis, and honing his skills to review and report on the latest cars. He joined CAR and Parkers in February 2024.u00A0u00A0nOutside of working hours, Ted is usually browsing car auctions and classifies in search of a bargain (often unsuccessfully), and currently owns a Mk1 Audi TT Quattro Sport and Renault Clio 182 Trophy. Heu2019s also an avid and perfectionist car valeter and detailer u2013 yes, one of those bores that lectures you about the two-bucket method. Away from cars he loves travelling the world and is also a keen golfer and mountain biker.u00A0nOn social media, you can follow Ted on his personal Instagram account or one dedicated to cars, while heu2019s also on X, formerly Twitter, usually moaning about how much his cars have cost him.

since the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-news\/first-official-pictures\/jaecoo\/j7\/\">Chinese firm launched in the UK<\/a>, gaining a new hybrid powertrain and lower pricing for 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since its debut in the UK in January 2025, Jaecoo has been a huge success story, with its Range Rover-esque styling going down a treat with British buyers. For the majority of 2025, its only model was the Jaecoo 7, which clocked up more than 28,000 registrations last year.<\/p>\n<p>Things are looking similarly positive in 2026, as year to date it\u2019s the third-best-selling car, ahead of well-loved models such as the Vauxhall Corsa and Nissan Qashqai.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/480x0\/091-jaecoo-7-hybrid-2026.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-256210\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/480x0\/091-jaecoo-7-hybrid-2026.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/720x0\/091-jaecoo-7-hybrid-2026.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/1040x0\/091-jaecoo-7-hybrid-2026.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Joining the existing petrol and plug-in hybrid variant in 2026 is a new self-charging setup that will be known as SHS-H (super hybrid system \u2013 hybrid). It\u2019s the same powertrain recently introduced into the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carmagazine.co.uk\/car-reviews\/omoda\/5-suv\/\">Omoda 5<\/a>, with its 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine and twin electric motors putting out 221bhp, 20bhp more than the plug-in variant.<\/p>\n<p>Jaecoo says it can accelerate to 62mph in 8.3 seconds, while its claimed 53.3mpg fuel economy figure is a big improvement on the 37mpg figure achieved from the regular 145bhp 1.6-litre petrol version.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The hybrid Jaecoo 7 will also become the cheapest variant of this SUV, too, thanks to a new entry-level Pure trim level, which isn\u2019t offered on petrol or plug-in variants.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/480x0\/092-jaecoo-7-hybrid.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-256211\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/480x0\/092-jaecoo-7-hybrid.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/720x0\/092-jaecoo-7-hybrid.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/1040x0\/092-jaecoo-7-hybrid.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>Priced from \u00a329,195, it costs \u00a31,000 less than the cheapest higher-spec petrol model, though standard equipment still includes a 13.2-inch touchscreen, dual-zone climate control and front parking sensors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A Deluxe grade brings eco-leather upholstery, a larger 14.8-inch touchscreen and upgraded sound system for a \u00a332,795 starting price. The same trim on the petrol variant costs from \u00a330,115.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The other change for 2026 is a new top-spec Black Luxury grade, only available on the plug-in hybrid variant. Costing from \u00a336,500 (a \u00a31,335 premium over the standard PHEV), it brings a blacked-out design thanks to a black grille, black roof and black badging, as well as a black headlining inside.\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject hide-for-medium-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"mpu-inject show-for-medium-up hide-for-xlarge-up\">\n<div class=\"mpu-ad advert\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/480x0\/093-jaecoo-7-black-luxury.jpg?scale=down\" alt class=\"wp-image-256213\" data-interchange=\"[https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/480x0\/093-jaecoo-7-black-luxury.jpg?scale=down, (default)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/720x0\/093-jaecoo-7-black-luxury.jpg?scale=down, (medium)], [https:\/\/car-images.bauersecure.com\/wp-images\/256174\/1040x0\/093-jaecoo-7-black-luxury.jpg?scale=down, (large)]\"><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n<p>Victor Zhang, managing director of Jaecoo UK, said: \u201cAfter such a strong first year, it\u2019s crucial that we keep evolving.
