Australia just keeps getting spoiled with EV options, with the 2026 Jaecoo J5 EV launching at $36,990 drive-away!⚡🚙

That pricing puts it among the cheapest electric SUVs in Australia while also under-cutting other similarly sized petrol options. Considering the features, this could be the BEST VALUE new car in Australia!

Key highlights:
🔋 60.9kWh LFP battery, 402km WLTP range
⚡ 155kW / 288Nm, 0–100km/h in 7.7s
🔌 130kW DC fast charging (30–80% in ~28 mins)
🧳 480L boot + 35L frunk
🐶 Pet & child-friendly interior with premium tech
🛡️ Expected 5-star ANCAP, 7 airbags standard
📱 Big screens, wireless CarPlay/Android Auto, V2L

After-sales service is also good with an 8-year unlimited km warranty and $190 capped-price servicing.

There are so many good options now in the affordable EV space. Mainstream Australia does not appreciate how relatively affordable (and good) electric cars have become!

From our short time with the J5 EV feels like a $50k+ car. It appears to be incredible value and will be backed by Chery Australia's dealer and service
