JAECOO J5 Price in Pakistan 2026: Specs, Features & Range

The JAECOO J5 price in Pakistan starts at PKR 5,999,000 ex-factory for the Comfort and PKR 6,699,000 for the Premium, announced by NexGen Auto. Both variants use a 49.5 kWh battery with a claimed 405 km NEDC range. NexGen, a Nishat Group company, assembles the J5 locally and describes it as Pakistan’s first locally assembled electric SUV. These are introductory prices valid until 30 November 2026.

This guide covers what each variant costs, what separates Comfort from Premium, how far the car will realistically go, how it charges, and how it compares with the BYD Atto 2 and MG4 EV Urban. Where NexGen has not published a detail, we say so instead of guessing.

JAECOO J5 price in Pakistan

The JAECOO J5 costs PKR 5,999,000 for the Comfort and PKR 6,699,000 for the Premium, both ex-factory and both introductory. A booking amount of roughly a fifth of the price secures a slot at an OMODA & JAECOO dealership. Reported deliveries start in January 2027, but NexGen’s launch announcement does not state a delivery date, so confirm it with your dealer.

A larger 58.9 kWh “Premium Plus” with a higher claimed range appears in some JAECOO material. It was not part of the 6 November launch and has no announced price in Pakistan, so do not mix its figures with the Comfort or Premium.

Launch and local assembly

NexGen Auto officially launched the JAECOO J5 in Pakistan on 6 November 2026. NexGen is a subsidiary of Nishat Group and introduced the OMODA and JAECOO brands to Pakistan in August 2025. The J5 is assembled locally, which is the main reason it undercuts imported electric SUVs at launch.

NexGen says the J5 hybrid and J7 plug-in hybrid have together passed 15,000 locally assembled units. That is a company figure, and it says nothing about how the electric J5 will hold up. What matters for an EV buyer is warranty and service reach: the vehicle is covered for 6 years or 150,000 km and the battery for 8 years or 160,000 km, whichever comes first.

JAECOO J5 specifications

The J5 is a compact electric SUV with a single front motor producing 155 kW (about 208 hp) and 288 Nm of torque. Motor, battery and charging hardware are the same on Comfort and Premium. The table separates figures NexGen publishes from figures that appear only in dealer listings.

JAECOO J5 Comfort vs Premium

The Premium adds PKR 700,000 over the Comfort and, based on what has been published, buys a larger screen, more speakers, more airbags, a fuller driver-assistance suite and a panoramic roof. The powertrain, battery and range are identical. The Comfort’s full equipment list is not yet published in one place, so the table marks how well each difference is confirmed.

Exterior design

The J5 is an upright compact SUV measuring 4,380 mm long and 1,860 mm wide, with a 2,620 mm wheelbase and 184 mm of ground clearance. That clearance is enough for typical speed breakers and broken road edges, though it is not an off-road figure. The electric version drops the combustion J5’s prominent grille for a closed front fascia.

NexGen highlights LED headlamps with intelligent high-beam control, wide horizontal LED tail-lamps, a sculpted tailgate and 18-inch alloy wheels with a geometric pattern. A 1.45 m² panoramic roof is marketed as best in class and is listed on the Premium. The leaflet lists five colours: Khaki White, Carbon Crystal Black, Eucalyptus Green, Glacier Blue and Elegant Gray. NexGen’s website configurator also shows a sixth, Phantom Grey, so confirm availability when you book.

Interior and technology

The Premium cabin is built around a 13.2-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an 8-inch digital instrument cluster, an eight-speaker audio system and a 50 W wireless charger. Other listed equipment includes dual-zone climate control, keyless entry, front and rear USB ports, a Type-C fast-charging port and connected-car (T-Box) services. The Comfort steps down to a 9-inch screen and two speakers.

Rear passengers get headrests for all three seats and a 480-litre boot, which grows to 1,284 litres with the seats folded. NexGen describes the rear seats as PVC faux leather and the cabin glass as noise-reducing. On a test drive, check how many functions sit inside the touchscreen menus, how the cabin feels with the AC running at full load, and how much rear legroom you get with your own family aboard.

Safety features

The J5 Premium has six airbags (dual front, front side and side curtain), ISOFIX child-seat anchors, child locks and a reinforced body structure. NexGen lists an ADAS package that includes adaptive cruise control, blind-spot detection, forward collision warning, lane change assist, rear cross-traffic assist and intelligent high-beam control. Launch specifications for the Premium also list emergency lane keeping, lane departure warning, autonomous emergency braking, tyre-pressure monitoring, an electronic parking brake, auto hold and a 540° HD camera with front and rear sensors.

Not every item has been confirmed for the Comfort. NexGen’s published pages do not itemise ABS, EBD, electronic stability control or hill-start assist, and we found no independent crash-test rating for the Pakistan-specification car. Ask the dealer to confirm each of these in writing for the variant you choose. If safety equipment decides the purchase, the airbag gap between Comfort and Premium is the number to check first.

JAECOO J5 range in Pakistan

The JAECOO J5’s 405 km figure is an NEDC range, which is the most generous of the common test cycles. The same 49.5 kWh car is reported at 344 km on WLTP and about 295 km on EPA. Real range in Pakistan will depend on speed, heat, load and route, so treat 405 km as a brochure number and not a trip-planning number.

Our guide to WLTP vs NEDC vs CLTC vs EPA explains why these numbers cannot be converted with a single multiplier. A better method is to work from your own measured consumption. The range of a 49.5 kWh pack is the battery size divided by consumption. The figures below are illustrations that assume the full 49.5 kWh is usable, not measured J5 results.

For reference, the reported 344 km WLTP figure implies about 14.4 kWh per 100 km in the lab. Pakistani summer driving usually sits above lab conditions. The American Automobile Association found that running the air conditioner at 35°C cut average EV range by about 17 percent. That was a US study on other cars, but afternoons in Lahore, Multan and Karachi routinely reach that temperature.

What cuts range in Pakistan

Sustained 110 to 120 km/h motorway speeds raise drag sharply, which is where NEDC says the least. Stop-and-go city driving suits an EV because braking recovers energy, but long AC-on crawls in traffic still drain the pack. A full family with luggage, climbs such as the road into Islamabad and the hills beyond, and low tyre pressure all add to consumption. Heavy 18-inch wheels and tyres add a little more.

Charging the JAECOO J5

The J5 charges at up to 11 kW on AC and up to 130 kW on DC. NexGen quotes 30 to 80 percent in 28 minutes on a DC fast charger, and a 11 kW home charger is part of the launch offer, subject to terms. Most owners will charge at home overnight and use DC stops for intercity trips.

AC and home charging

Home charging speed depends on your electricity supply as much as on the car. A 49.5 kWh battery takes about 4.5 hours at a full 11 kW before losses, which needs a three-phase supply. JAECOO’s Australian specification lists 6.6 kW on single-phase and 10.3 kW on three-phase, and Pakistani listings quote 7 to 8 hours for a full home charge. Check whether your home has single-phase or three-phase supply before assuming 11 kW.

Ask the dealer what the free 11 kW charger includes: the unit itself, installation, cabling and any electrician’s work are separate questions. Our home EV charging guide and charging time guide cover wall boxes and supply checks, and the charging cost guide covers what a kWh costs at home and on public networks.

DC fast charging and connector

The 130 kW peak is the car’s limit, not the charger’s. Many public DC chargers in Pakistan are rated well below 130 kW, so on most stops the charger will set the speed. NexGen’s material does not name the charging port. JAECOO sells the J5 with CCS2 in other markets and CCS2 is the common standard on newer EVs here, but get the port confirmed in writing before you buy a wall box or plan routes. Our connector guide explains the differences, and the fast vs slow charging guide explains why charging to about 80 percent usually saves time.

Finding chargers and planning trips with EVraah

Use the EVraah charging map to find public chargers near your home, office and regular routes, and check connector type and network before you set out. The EVraah route planner builds an intercity plan with charging stops, drive time and estimated cost. If the J5 is not yet in the planner’s vehicle list, choose “Other / not listed”, set your battery level and connector, and leave the 10 percent arrival buffer on. For intercity runs, read the Lahore to Islamabad M-2 guide, the Karachi to Lahore playbook and the motorway charging guide. Browse operators on the networks page.

JAECOO J5 vs BYD Atto 2 and MG4 EV Urban

The JAECOO J5 is cheaper than both the BYD Atto 2 and the MG4 EV Urban and carries a larger battery than either. At PKR 5,999,000 the Comfort is PKR 1,291,000 below the Atto 2, and the Premium is PKR 591,000 below it. The J5’s price advantage depends on the introductory offer holding, and its weak points are a newer service network and unconfirmed Comfort equipment.

Rival prices are ex-factory list prices we last checked in October and early November 2026. The range rows mix NEDC and WLTP, so compare battery size first. See the full breakdowns in our BYD Atto 2 price guide, the Atto 2 vs MG4 Urban comparison, the list of cheapest electric cars in Pakistan and the best electric cars in Pakistan.

Before you book a JAECOO J5

Before paying a booking amount, get five things in writing: the on-road price, the variant’s equipment list, the delivery date, the charger terms and the refund policy. The introductory price window closes on 30 November 2026, so decide on a deadline rather than a rush.

1. On-road price. Ask for a written quotation covering freight, registration, taxes and documentation.
2. Equipment sheet. Ask for the signed specification for your exact variant, including the airbag count and ADAS list.
3. Delivery date. Ask whether the price is fixed until delivery and what happens if delivery slips.
4. Home charger terms. Ask what “complimentary” covers, including installation.
5. Spare tyre. NexGen’s launch announcement mentions a free spare tyre, while one dealer listing says a repair kit only. Confirm which you get.
6. Charging port and DC speed. Ask for the port type, and whether the 28-minute figure is for 30 to 80 percent or 10 to 80 percent.
7. Refund terms. Ask what happens to your booking amount if you cancel or the price changes.
