JAC Group

[6] Prior to the 2007 acquisition of a passenger car license, JAC cooperated with Hyundai Motor Company in the early 2000s in an attempt to expand its product line.

[11] On the surface such a merger would make sense: Chery mainly built passenger cars, and JAC was almost entirely focused on trucks at the time.

[12] JAC has begun to concentrate more on passenger cars, and a 2010 announcement of a new electric vehicle program may—at least partially—have been an effort to stave off the rumored merger.

[13] In 2013 it was one of the top ten most-productive vehicle manufacturers in China selling 458,500 units for 2.5% market share and reaching eighth place.

[14] JAC dropped one spot to ninth in 2011 making nearly 500,000 vehicles, and in 2012 a fall in units produced to about 445,000 precipitated the company's moving down one more rung to tenth place.

The agreement between the parties, subject to the usual regulatory approvals, provides for the investment of an amount equal to one billion euros and should be concluded by the end of the year.

In March 2021, NIO and JAC Group established Jianglai Advanced Manufacturing Technology (Anhui) Co., Ltd., with each party holding a 50% stake in the joint venture.

As part of the agreement renewal, NIO paid JAC CNY 1.2 billion for the extension of contract manufacturing services.

Over the five-year period, the total amount paid for contract manufacturing services reached a substantial sum of CNY 3.038 billion.

The two parties will collaborate in manufacturing, sales, and services to develop premium EV based on Huawei's intelligent automotive solutions.

[21] In August 2024, at the Stelato S9 launch conference, Huawei officially announced the fourth brand of HIMA collaborated with JAC, the Maextro (Chinese: 尊界).

The manufacturer launched the Rightech RT75, a 7.5 tonnes (7.4 long tons; 8.3 short tons) battery electric box truck based on the JAC Junling but modified with a revised front grille, which is able to be specified at either a 3.85 metres (12.6 ft) or 4.48 metres (14.7 ft) wheelbase and is available in both left- and right-hand drive variants for the UK and European truck markets.

[25] Sehol (思皓) was established in 2018 as a joint venture between JAC and Volkswagen, originally positioned as a brand for pure electric vehicles.

[32] Sehol (Chinese: 思皓; Sihao[33]) is a car brand launched on April 24, 2018, by SEAT and JAC Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd. joint venture.

[37] Some JAC exports are in the form of knock-down kits, which are assembled at overseas factories in countries including Egypt, Ethiopia, Vietnam, Mexico and Iran.

[41] This plan remained active until at least 2011, at which time the plant was to be located in Bahia state and built in cooperation with the SHC group, which was to provide 80% of the initial investment.

[43][better source needed][44] In 2017, JAC announced a joint venture in Mexico with Giant Motors (company owned by tycoon Carlos Slim).

Since early June 2017, two models are sold in Mexican market: SEI2 and SEI3, both SUVs are made in Mexico in this facility, the compact sedan J4 was added to the line-up in 2018.
