**News Article: Electric Jaecoo 5 SUV to Launch in October 2025, Starting at £24,505**
Jaecoo, the Chinese automotive brand, has announced the UK pricing and specifications for its electric SUV, the Jaecoo 5. The electric model is expected to hit the roads in October 2025, following the release of the petrol version in the same month.
The electric Jaecoo 5 will come with a 61kWh battery and a 204PS electric motor, similar to the Omoda E5, offering a range of over 250 miles. The vehicle will also feature a range of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) with 19 features, as seen in the petrol model.
The electric version will be more powerful than the petrol model, with a 204PS motor compared to the petrol's 147hp engine. It will offer improved efficiency for city driving and longer trips without fuel stops. Electric vehicles typically provide smoother acceleration and quieter operation compared to petrol engines, and the electric Jaecoo 5 will be no exception. Additionally, the electric model will have zero tailpipe emissions, making it an appealing choice for those prioritizing environmental factors.
Both models are expected to share similar interior features such as a 13.2-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a Sony audio system. Three years of RAC Home Start cover are included with the Jaecoo 5.
The Jaecoo 5 will be available in two trim levels: Pure and Luxury. The Pure model, starting at £24,505, will include standard equipment such as automatic headlights, the 13.2-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, and a six-speaker Sony audio system. The Luxury model, priced at £28,000, will offer upgrades including eight speakers, cooled wireless smartphone charging, a panoramic sunroof, ambient lighting, dual-zone climate control, heated and ventilated front seats with six-way power adjustment, and more.
The Jaecoo 5 will be available for orders later this summer and will compete with the Ford Puma and Jeep Avenger. The car's design takes visual cues from nature, with body lines inspired by mountain ridges and dramatic natural landscapes, while its front grille resembles a 'waterfall'. The first deliveries to customers are expected in October 2025.
Jaecoo plans to launch a fully electric version of the Jaecoo 5, with more details to be confirmed soon. The new Jaecoo 5 made its dynamic debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, marking the brand's entry into the UK market.
