JAC Reviews

JAC Motors, short for Jianghuai Automobile Company, is a Chinese brand founded in 1964. It started by building commercial trucks before expanding into passenger cars and electric vehicles. Backed by state ownership, JAC grew steadily through domestic demand and export deals.

By the 2000s, JAC had launched its own SUV and car lines. It also began developing electric tech early, later partnering with Volkswagen to build EVs in China. The brand now offers a mix of budget-friendly city cars, utes and vans. It has a strong focus on value and practicality.

JAC vehicles are sold in over 100 countries, including emerging markets in South America and the Middle East. It’s still a new name in Australia, but its commercial range is gaining attention. With EVs and hybrids expanding fast, JAC is another Chinese brand pushing into the global mainstream. Local buyers may start seeing more of them soon.
