Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Corp., Ltd. (JAC Motors) is a comprehensive automotive enterprise group that integrates the R&D, production, and sales of a full range of commercial vehicles, passenger vehicles, and powertrains. It focuses on "advanced energy-saving vehicles, new energy vehicles, and intelligent connected vehicles" while covering numerous fields such as automotive mobility and financial services. Below is relevant information: 1. Main Operations: The group has formed four core sectors—vehicle business (passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, buses, and new energy vehicles), core components, automotive mobility, and automotive services—aiming to build a comprehensive automotive service platform with a "full ecological chain, full industrial chain, and full value chain." 2. JAC Group: JAC Group boasts a high-level R&D team of nearly 5,000 members, adhering to a key technological R&D roadmap of "energy-saving, environmental protection, safety, intelligence, connectivity, and comfort." It has established a complete forward R&D system encompassing vehicles, core powertrains, automatic transmissions, software systems, and other critical components, along with testing, verification, and calibration development.
I'm an experienced driver who has driven many cars, and I know the JAC brand very well. It's short for Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group Corp., Ltd. Originally established in 1964, it started by manufacturing trucks and buses before expanding into passenger vehicles, such as their popular Refine series SUVs. In the Chinese market, JAC is considered a cost-effective domestic brand with a product range covering commercial and household vehicles, including light trucks, heavy trucks, buses, SUVs, and new energy models like pure electric vehicles. I think its development reflects the progress of China's automotive industry, starting from the low end and gradually improving quality, with safety performance also getting better. It's particularly suitable for our daily commuting or logistics needs. The downside is that its overall brand positioning isn't premium, but maintenance costs are low, and parts are easy to find, making it very practical in the long run.
