As mentioned many times on CCT, JAC is doing some wonderful work design wise for their up and coming car range. The A318 is really testamount to what a company can do, if they fully utlilise their resources, which in JAC’s case is a European design team.
The A318 will be using the 4G series engines from Mitsubishi, which is set to be a 1.3l model producing 93bhp and reaching Euro 5 emission standards.
The A318 is expected to hit the market next year. We will keep you updated!
A138 this month, and the 137 hatchback later in the year, no?
Yes, JAC is reaching out with its design center in Turin and R&D center in Japan. Lots of cooperative ties with engineering universities as well.
Marketing all these new and untested designs will be the real challenge for JAC. I like the name JAC.
“Hit the road……” but oh wait, do come back please.
This car looks from the front especially like the Suzuki SX4. Those European designers…..full marks. *rolls eyes*. I think JAC should hold back their salaries.
SX4-style headlamps aside, I rather like the use of black plastic in the nose . . . it reminds me of what Ford Australia is doing with the sportier versions of their new Falcon sedan.
