Motor Type: Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM)
The Jaecoo J5 EV is powered by a high-efficiency Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) mounted on the front axle. This motor is engineered for high power density and immediate torque response, characteristic of premium modern EVs. It serves as the heart of Jaecoo’s "New Energy" push, focusing on silent operation and linear power delivery.
Max Power: 155 kW (211 PS / 208 bhp)
Delivering a robust 155 kW, the J5 positions itself competitively within the compact SUV segment. This output ensures the vehicle remains sprightly during highway overtaking and maintains its performance profile even when fully loaded with five passengers and luggage.
Max Torque: 288 Nm
The J5 produces an instantaneous 288 Nm of torque from zero RPM. This high torque-to-weight ratio allows for effortless city driving and provides the necessary "shove" for climbing steep inclines, making it highly suitable for diverse terrains from urban centers to hilly regions.
Battery Capacity: 58.9 kWh (LFP)
The vehicle features a 58.9 kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) battery pack, sourced from CATL. LFP chemistry is chosen for its superior thermal stability and longer cycle life compared to NCM batteries, allowing owners to charge to 100% regularly without significant degradation.
0-100 km/h: 7.3 - 7.7 Seconds
The J5 demonstrates impressive agility for a compact SUV, clocking a 0-100 km/h sprint in approximately 7.3 to 7.7 seconds depending on the wheel size and load. This performance puts it on par with many entry-level luxury petrol SUVs.
Top Speed: 180 km/h
While most EVs are electronically limited to preserve range, the Jaecoo J5 is geared to reach a respectable top speed of 180 km/h, ensuring it doesn't feel underpowered during high-speed cruising on international motorways.
