JAC plans to produce in Ukraine and the USA
- To avoid large import taxes implemented in Ukraine, the Chinese carmaker Jianghuai Automobile (JAC) is partnering with the local carmaker Bogdan Motors to produce cars in the country and will be selling this year vehicles under license.
- Bogdan Motors will produce JAC vehicles at its plant in Cherkassy (city in central Ukraine). Bogdan Motors also produces in this factory Lada vehicles and Hyundai brands. Initially a thousand JAC vehicles will be produced per year.
- Moreover, Jianghuai Automobile will partner up with the American GreenTech carmaker to produce an electric model at Horn Lake (Mississippi). The vehicle will be based on the JAC sedan Rejoice and be equipped with a motor and batteries supplied by GreenTech. It will have a range of about 160 km.
- The manufacturer plans to produce 2,000 vehicles a year in Horn Lake. According to GreenTech, an additional assembly plant in partnership with JAC is conceivable in the future, if car sales are successful.
- The partnership between the two groups was announced at the last show in Shanghai.
