RRG Group Celebrates Record-Breaking Achievement with Omoda & Jaecoo and Ben Shephard

The JAECOO 7 SHS-P makes history after setting a brand-new GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title during the UK’s legendary National Three Peaks Challenge.

At RRG Group, we are thrilled to announce a historic milestone for one of our newest and most innovative brand partners! The JAECOO 7 SHS-P has officially secured the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS title for the lowest fuel consumption for a UK National Three Peaks Challenge in a plug-in hybrid powered production SUV.

This incredible achievement brings together endurance, high performance, and cutting-edge super-hybrid technology across one of Britain’s most demanding automotive and trekking routes.

The Challenge: Conquering the UK’s Highest Peaks

The National Three Peaks Challenge is renowned as one of the ultimate tests of human and machine endurance. Broadcaster and TV presenter Ben Shephard took on the task of trekking to the summits of the three highest mountains in Scotland, England, and Wales:

  • ⛰️ Ben Nevis (Scotland)
  • ⛰️ Scafell Pike (England)
  • ⛰️ Yr Wyddfa / Snowdon (Wales)

While Ben tackled the mountain trails, automotive efficiency specialists Kevin Booker and Sam Clarke took the wheel of the JAECOO 7 SHS-P to master the roads connecting all three peaks.

The Record by the Numbers

Over the course of the challenge, the vehicle was subjected to real-world UK traffic, varied weather conditions, and long-distance driving across motorways and steep mountain passes.

Powered by Fifth-Generation Super Hybrid Technology

Achieving an exceptional 68.7 mpg over 469.5 miles is a direct testament to Jaecoo’s fifth-generation Super Hybrid System (SHS). The JAECOO 7 SHS-P seamlessly balances electric range and efficient petrol power, proving that real-world sustainability does not mean compromising on space, comfort, or off-road adventure capabilities.

"This milestone is more than just a record—it’s a testament to what’s possible when cutting-edge technology meets the spirit of adventure."
