What Brand of Car Has a Five-Pointed Star Logo?

The five-pointed star logo represents the Venucia brand, which is a subsidiary of Dongfeng Motor. Taking the 2020 Venucia D60 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4756mm, width 1803mm, height 1487mm, with a wheelbase of 2700mm, minimum ground clearance of 166mm, fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, and trunk capacity of 525 liters. The 2020 Venucia D60 is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 93kW and a maximum torque of 168Nm. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The front suspension is of the MacPherson strut independent type, while the rear suspension features a torsion beam non-independent setup.

Last time my friend who owns a repair shop pointed at that red five-pointed star emblem on the road and told me, 'That's Jianghuai's old logo.' Now they've changed to a new JAC letter logo, but you can still see this star emblem on older Refine MPVs and light trucks. It used to be a common sight on trucks—those five sharp angles were particularly eye-catching, with a bit of three-dimensional chrome texture in the center, different from the flat stars on military vehicles. Surprisingly, parts for these older models with the classic emblem are easier to find now, given Jianghuai's strong chassis presence in third- and fourth-tier cities.

In my hometown county, these trucks with the five-pointed star are everywhere. I remember my driving school instructor mentioned that the emblem with a diamond base and a three-dimensional red star is exclusive to JAC commercial vehicles, which was later adopted by their passenger cars as well. Its star is more robust than BAW's hollowed-out five-pointed star, with sharper and cleaner angles. Once, while riding in a logistics truck, I asked the driver about it. He said this emblem has remained unchanged for ten years and is particularly pleasing to the eye, plus it reflects light clearly at night, making it much more practical than today's flashy new logos.

Automotive magazines have mentioned the evolution of JAC's five-pointed star logo. Originally derived from the star-shaped element of the 'Anchi' brand, it was standardized into a unified emblem in 2006. The silver star on a red background symbolizes 'national integrity,' with each of the five points representing the win-win collaboration among 'customers/employees/shareholders/partners/society.' Notably, the star features a perspective 3D effect, distinguishing it from Chrysler's flat pentagram design. While JAC's electric vehicles now use letter-based branding, this logo can still occasionally be spotted on older models like the iEV6.

Veteran drivers who've driven JAC Refine all recognize this emblem. A five-pointed star encircled by a dark gray ring, its metallic finish distinctly sets it apart from other brands. A repair shop owner once gestured to me: Toyota's bullhorn logo is rounded, while JAC's star has sharp edges—those pointed tips are more prone to scratching paint when grazing against poles compared to rounded emblems. Yet longtime owners swear by this badge, praising its masculine vibe. When JAC later switched to letter branding, some customers even requested dealerships to revert their vehicles to the old star emblem.

On a business trip to Anhui, the taxi driver pointed to the red star on the hood and said it was the pride of our province. Although Jianghuai's logo has now been replaced with the JAC letter combination, the three-dimensional five-pointed star can still be seen on early models like the Refine S5 and Heyue. The most distinctive feature of this emblem is its five pointed tips with curved transitions, resembling plum blossoms from afar but revealing sharp, angular stars up close. Auto parts shop owners say that fog lamp covers with the old logo have become hot commodities, with some car owners specifically collecting them to modify their vehicles into classic styles.
