Substance Over Flash
Measuring 4,825mm long with a 2,830mm wheelbase, the X8 E Home projects substantial road presence without appearing bulky. The front fascia features a modern borderless grille flanked by LED headlights, while a full-width light bar at the rear creates visual cohesion.
Functional Aesthetics: C-pillar quarter windows enhance third-row ambiance, and hidden exhausts signal its eco-friendly identity. 18-inch dual-tone wheels strike a balance between style and all-road capability.
Efficiency Meets Performance
At its core lies a 1.5T hybrid-exclusive engine (43.1% thermal efficiency) mated to a single-speed DHT transmission, enabling seamless transitions between EV, series, parallel, and direct-drive modes.
Key Metrics:
Electric motor: 150kW/320N·m (0-100km/h in 7.7s)
Pure EV range: 110km (CLTC) – covers 90% of daily commutes
Fuel consumption: 1.42L/100km (hybrid), 5.49L/100km (charge-sustaining)
Battery Tech: IP68-rated pack with cloud-based BMS monitors cell health 24/7, addressing safety concerns head-on.
Space as a Service
JAC’s “Space Maximization” philosophy shines:
Seating Science:
Third-row cushions are 10% thicker than average, with 290mm leg recess for adult-friendly comfort
Second-row slides 260mm with recline adjustment
Transformative Storage:
2,760L maximum cargo volume (seats folded flat) – fits 8x 28-inch suitcases
7-seat mode still accommodates 3 carry-ons
Real-World Test: The 170mm central aisle in 6-seat versions allows adults to access the third row without seat gymnastics.
Tech: Smarter, Not Louder
The 24.6-inch panoramic display runs Huawei HiCar, enabling seamless phone-mirroring and voice commands (“Navigate to Central Park” responds in 0.8s).
User-Centric Choices:
Physical HVAC buttons prevent driving distractions
Built-in karaoke system with 6 speakers for family entertainment
OTA updates focus on practical improvements over gimmicks
Safety: Invisible Guardian
68% high-strength steel body with 1,500MPa A-pillars meets Euro safety standards
Standard 6 airbags + 360° camera system (upgradable to transparent chassis)
Brand Philosophy: Co-Creation Culture
JAC’s 200+ user workshops refined details competitors overlook:
Oversized cup holders for bubble tea cups
Third-row USB ports + dedicated vents
Lifetime free base data + 5-year entertainment data
Why It Matters: Prioritizes practical enhancements over speculative tech (e.g., no expensive AR-HUD), passing savings to buyers.
The Verdict: Rewriting Rules of Affordability
The X8 E Home isn’t about winning spec sheets – it’s about delivering family-first functionality at an unprecedented price. By combining B-segment space with A-segment costs and hybrid efficiency, JAC creates a new category: the “rational family’s anti-premium PHEV.” While brand prestige lags behind BYD, its could trigger a domino effect in emerging markets.
