OMODA & JAECOO Ushers in a New Era of High-Performance Hybrid Mobility with SHS Technology in the UAE
As the UAE's demand for advanced, sustainable mobility continues to grow, OMODA & JAECOO is set to redefine what hybrid performance means with the regional debut of its game-changing Super Hybrid System (SHS) — a platform that delivers superior acceleration, lower fuel consumption, and extended electric driving range compared to traditional internal combustion engines (ICE).
With successful rollouts of the J7 PHEV across global markets, JAECOO is now bringing its SHS technology to the UAE to meet the needs of a new generation of adventure-seeking, tech-driven drivers who demand both capability and responsibility.
'SHS is not just a powertrain — it's a complete rethink of how hybrid SUVs should perform in real life,' said Shawn Xu, CEO of OMODA & JAECOO Automobile International.
'Our system outperforms many ICE vehicles in torque, fuel efficiency, and range. With the J7 already proving itself across multiple continents, we are proud to bring this innovation to the UAE and soon launch the next evolution with the J8 SHS.'
What Is SHS – Super Hybrid System?
The Super Hybrid System (SHS) is JAECOO's proprietary plug-in hybrid technology platform that fuses electric efficiency with internal combustion muscle. Highlights include: Combined power output: 340 horsepower (255 kW)
Torque: 525 N·m — exceeding many ICE rivals
Pure EV range: Up to 90 km
Combined driving range: Up to 1,200 km on one charge and tank
Charge-sustaining fuel consumption: ?6.0L/100km
EV Silent Mode, regenerative braking, and multi-terrain drive settings
The system is supported by a high-efficiency hybrid engine (44.5% thermal efficiency) and a battery pack engineered to operate in temperatures reaching 60°C — making it ideal for the GCC climate.
Proven Performance. Now in the UAE.
The JAECOO J7 PHEV has already made headlines so many countries across the world. From long-distance hybrid drives to urban EV-only performance, the J7 has been widely recognized for outperforming segment benchmarks in both performance and endurance.
In the UAE, these achievements will be showcased through the Super Hybrid Marathon in Dubai to Riyadh — and the J7 Performance Challenge, where the vehicle will tackle sand dunes, rock crawls, and steep climbs with ease.
Next: The J8 SHS
Following the momentum of the J7, JAECOO will soon unveil its most advanced hybrid SUV to date: the JAECOO J8 SHS. Engineered with top-tier off-road capability, luxury interior craftsmanship, and a new iteration of the SHS platform, the J8 promises performance that outpaces traditional ICE SUVs in both desert terrain and urban mobility. More details on its UAE reveal will be shared in the coming weeks.
JAECOO's mission is clear: bring global hybrid innovation to local roads, offering UAE drivers a smarter, bolder, and cleaner way to explore their world.

Community Cameras Shield Vulnerable Los Angeles Residents from ICE Raids
A wave of vigilance has swept through Los Angeles neighbourhoods as residents tap into Amazon's Ring 'Neighbors' app to alert one another about the presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. The initiative, driven by community volunteers, has emerged amid an intensified enforcement campaign that has unsettled immigrant populations across the city. Volunteers vigilant to signs of federal activity are posting snapshots of unmarked vans, Border Patrol-style vehicles, and individuals congregating outside homes or businesses. These alerts cascade across neighbourhoods, enabling residents to avoid potential encounters with ICE agents conducting street-level enquiries and detentions. The technology was originally launched for community security—spotting porch thieves or LOUD party disturbances. Yet for participants in Los Angeles, it now serves as a digital alarm system. One user captured an image of a dark-tinted Ford SUV parked near a High‑Desert storefront, captioning it, 'ICE spotted,' alongside a caution that agents were circulating in the area. ADVERTISEMENT Ring's parent company, Amazon, has firmly denied that its systems are wired directly to alert users about immigration enforcement. It clarified in an earlier statement that no automated alerts notify residents of ICE activity, though it does allow users to post relevant images themselves. Despite those public reassurances, participation in the app's immigration-watch function has surged. The latest Forbes report states the number of posts tagged with 'ICE' or 'immigration agents' in Greater Los Angeles has grown fivefold compared to the average monthly activity from earlier in the year; community moderators confirm an uptick in local coordination during ICE operational periods. Experts offer a nuanced view. Privacy advocate Linh Nguyen from the Electronic Frontier Foundation remarked that community monitoring tools are playing a civic role, though she warned of the potential for misinformation. 'Crowdsourced neighbourhood policing walks a thin line—useful in forcing transparency, but also vulnerable to misidentification and fear‑mongering,' she noted in a discussion on digital civil rights. Legal scholars emphasise this is still lawful speech, provided users are simply sharing publicly captured footage, and no protected private data is released. However, the broader implications of user‑generated tracking remain unsettled in Californian privacy law, which is facing renewed scrutiny from privacy advocates. Local activist groups working in immigrant communities—such as Ktown for All and Centro de Apoyo Familiar—are encouraging residents to join the Neighbours network, while simultaneously linking them to legal aid services and support hotlines. One outreach coordinator commented, 'Our goal is to ensure people aren't caught unprepared, and have access to legal counsel if needed,' as ICE increases street-level operations. ADVERTISEMENT City officials, including Councilmember Nithya Raman, have expressed concerns that such apps may also intensify anxiety in immigrant populations. In parallel, calls are growing for municipal investment in legal-know-your-rights programmes, panic-button text systems, and even targeted waivers of fines for undocumented users accessing city services via smartphone. The urgency behind such proposals is mirrored in the surge of Mutual Aid legal funds, now supporting over 200 families affected by enforcement sweeps. Meanwhile, Immigration and Customs Enforcement maintains that its tactics are limited to lawful enforcement of removal orders, and asserts it is not targeting based on race or residency, but on immigration status. Critics argue the agency has in some cases detained U.S. citizens, as evidenced by video circulated in Montebello showing agents questioning a man at a fence, demanding details about his birthplace before releasing him upon showing ID. This deployment of public‑facing cameras and voluntary alert systems signals a shift in community-led defence tactics. In areas such as South LA, San Fernando Valley, and Montebello, residents are choosing visibility and coordination over silence. The Ring-based alerts are complemented by text blasts and WhatsApp groups, often mobilised within minutes of someone spotting federal agents. Law enforcement analysts point out that this pattern mirrors community responses to other forms of civil enforcement. While some view it as a form of resistance against perceived injustices, others caution it may antagonise federal authorities, provoking a deeper enforcement response. As Los Angeles charts its next steps, municipal leaders are debating whether to formally integrate digital neighbourhood watch systems into emergency preparedness protocols. The overlap between private surveillance tools, immigrant rights advocacy, and civic safety continues to prompt urgent policy questions—and prompts a broader question: how should neighbourhood alert systems be regulated when they wind through the fraught terrain of immigration enforcement?
