I've been driving the JAC Jiayue A5 for almost three years now. This car comes standard with a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine from the HFC4GB series, delivering around 150 horsepower. It's very effortless to drive in the city. The acceleration from a standstill is quick, making overtaking quite easy, and the fuel consumption is also quite economical, averaging just over 8 liters per 100 kilometers, which can be even lower on the highway. Regular maintenance isn't complicated—just oil changes and air filter replacements—with no major issues so far. The engine noise is well controlled, especially at low speeds where the quietness is noticeably better than my previous car, making long drives less tiring. I think the reliability of this 1.5T engine, independently developed by JAC, is quite high. It hasn't had any failures up to now, making it a cost-effective choice. Compared to some joint-venture brands, it's lower in cost but doesn't lag much in performance, making it quite reliable for family or commuter use. If you're considering buying a car, I recommend test-driving it to experience the power delivery—you'll appreciate its smooth driving feel.
Our JAC JY A5 is equipped with JAC's own 1.5T turbocharged gasoline engine, delivering nearly 150 horsepower. After driving it for over a year, I find it very fuel-efficient. For daily tasks like picking up the kids or shopping, the fuel consumption stays around 7 liters per 100 kilometers, making it affordable to maintain. The engine runs smoothly with minimal vibration inside the cabin, providing a comfortable ride for my wife. When choosing the car, I prioritized reliability and quietness, and in actual use, there have been no issues like oil leaks or overheating. Maintenance simply involves regular checks of the spark plugs and engine oil. I believe this engine is well-suited for city commuting, offering sufficient power for traffic jams and uphill roads without needing high RPMs. As a family car, it offers great value for money, being both economical and hassle-free. If you're concerned about long-term ownership costs, the maintenance expenses for this engine are more than half lower than those of joint-venture cars, making it a worthwhile choice.
