Price in Russia
The cost of JAC iEV7S turned out to be disappointing, which most likely will not allow this car to become mass:
2 290 000 rubles
Technologies
iEV7S brought with it technological upgrades.
The first major update is the battery device. Liquid cooling has replaced air cooling, which affects the safety of charging and operation, as well as the durability of the battery.
Secondly, this is the first iEV with regenerative braking, which increases the range and allows you to move with only one foot (when you release the gas pedal, the car starts to slow down like a brake, at which point the battery is recuperated).
Third, richer trim levels add additional safety and driving comfort features, such as cruise control and automatic parking - though it's not full autopilot.
Body
The key point is that this car is still not designed to be electric from the ground up – the gas filler flap is covered by a metal plate, and the two battery charging ports have been moved to a slot under the front badge.
The saying goes perfectly with this electric car:
This car stands out on the road, but does not shout "future", but whispers "now".
Security
A press release on the car says its chassis has been tuned by German specialists and uses advanced solutions in many impact protection technologies. This could be related to the recent partnership between JAC and Volkswagen AG in the field of electric vehicles. The iEV7S has passed vehicle safety testing up to ASIL level C (Automotive Safety Integrity Level).
