Jaecoo Philippines has officially announced the arrival of the first batch of its fully electric SUV, the EJ6. Having introduced itself to the local market around two years ago, the company is now ready to offer its vehicles to the public.
The country is the fifth market in Southeast Asia to welcome the OMODA and JAECOO brands. The EJ6 made its local debut at the 12th Philippine Electric Vehicle Summit in October 2024, followed by an appearance at the Auto Focus Test Drive Festival in November. Now, with the first batch arriving in December 2024, we might finally see some Jaecoo vehicles on the road this year.
All about the Jaecoo EJ6
The Jaecoo EJ6 is a fully-electric vehicle that boasts off-road capabilities. While the model is available in both 2WD and 4WD variants globally, the Philippine market is receiving the 4WD version. This variant features dual motors, a four-wheel-drive mode, and a 69.77 kWh battery, ensuring both power and efficiency. The company has yet to announce pricing details.
“The EJ6 is the first EV offering of the JAECOO brand in the market, and bringing it to the Philippines is one of the big steps we’re taking to cement our presence in the country,” said OMODA and JAECOO Motor Philippines Inc. “More than a display of the JAECOO brand’s unique automotive engineering DNA, the arrival of EJ6 represents the bold stride we’re taking in introducing an off-road ready all-electric vehicle in the Philippines. The EJ6 is here to meet demands for advanced, powerful, and sustainable off-road mobility solutions.”
Built for performance and efficiency, the EJ6 features a cutting-edge six-in-one motor system and full-time electric power. The SUV also supports 80 kW fast charging, allowing it to charge from 30% to 80% in just 30 minutes. Its lightweight all-aluminum body further enhances performance, contributing to a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of just 6.5 seconds.
Ahead of the official brand launch, interested buyers can inquire about the EJ6 through Jaecoo dealerships. The model is also on display at the brand’s first dealership store at G-Mall, Cebu City. Official launch is slated sometime in February.
