The Jaecoo J5 (also known as Jaecoo 5) is a subcompact crossover SUV (B-segment) produced by Chery under the Jaecoo brand since 2025.
Overview
[edit]The J5 was previewed as a prototype model at the 2025 Indonesia International Motor Show,[3] and as a production model at the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show.[4][5]
The exterior features a simplified front fascia design with the trademark 'waterfall' grille, conventional door handles, a suspended roof design, and a full width taillight bar joined with a black trim piece with the brand name. Compared to the combustion-engined model, the battery electric model uses a different front fascia design with a transparent trim piece with the brand name and a different bumper design with an air intake.[6][7]
Inside, the interior has a minimalistic approach with fewer buttons on the dashboard and features a waterfall-style centre console. The dashboard features a 13.2-inch portrait touchscreen infotainment system, a digital instrument panel, the gear lever used for the automatic transmission is mounted on the steering wheel, and a two-spoke design steering wheel derived from the Omoda C9. Other interior features include a 1.45m² panoramic glass roof, customisable ambient lighting, dual smartphone holders includes a Qi wireless charger, and a storage area under the centre console.[6][7][8] Jaecoo claims the J5 is a "pet-friendly" SUV with features such as an antibacterial "health device" prevents any bacterial growth inside the car, a cabin air filter that sucks out pet hair from the air, extended seats, and an "intelligent" temperate control system.[8]
The J5 has a boot space of 480 L (17 cu ft) and expands to 1,180 L (42 cu ft) when the rear seats are folded.[6]
