JAC-E10X First Sodium-Ion Powered Model
JAC Motors is at the forefront of innovation in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, consistently pushing the boundaries of sustainable mobility. With the introduction of the Hua Xianzi, the world’s first electric vehicle powered by a sodium-ion battery, JAC is revolutionising EV technology and offering a more accessible, cost-effective alternative to traditional lithium-ion battery-powered vehicles.
We look at this breakthrough in innovation and its impact on the future of EVs.
A Breakthrough In Battery Innovation
The Hua Xianzi marks a significant milestone in battery development. It features a cutting-edge 25 kWh sodium-ion battery developed by HiNa Battery Technologies.
This advancement addresses key industry challenges, offering a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to conventional lithium-ion batteries. Sodium-ion technology provides improved low-temperature performance, faster charging speeds, and enhanced safety due to its lower risk of overheating.
Despite having a lower energy density than lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion technology offers practical benefits for everyday driving. The Hua Xianzi delivers an impressive range of up to 250 kilometres per charge, demonstrating its viability as a reliable and eco-friendly urban mobility solution.
What’s more – sodium’s abundance and affordability make this battery type a game-changer in reducing production costs and increasing accessibility to EVs.
JAC Motors’ Legacy Of Innovation
JAC Motors has been at the forefront of electric vehicle development for over a decade, pioneering new energy vehicle (NEV) solutions that cater to a global market. The company’s early ventures, such as the iEV series, played a crucial role in shaping China’s EV landscape. Models like the iEV4 and iEV6E offered practical, city-friendly electric mobility options long before EVs became mainstream.
With each new development, JAC has refined its approach to sustainable transportation. The introduction of the iEV6E, based on the JAC Yueyue platform, highlighted the company’s focus on making electric vehicles more accessible and efficient for urban drivers.
Today, this same commitment is evident in the Hua Xianzi, a testament to JAC’s ability to adapt and lead in an evolving industry.
Driving Global Expansion
JAC Motors is not only advancing EV technology within China but also extending its reach into international markets. The brand has already made significant strides in countries such as Brazil and Mexico, where models like the iEV6E and iEV7S have been well received. The introduction of the Hua Xianzi reinforces JAC’s long-term vision to offer cost-effective, sustainable EV solutions across the globe.
As demand for cleaner transportation grows, JAC’s expansion into global markets positions the brand as a key player in the EV revolution. By leveraging its expertise in battery technology and electric vehicle manufacturing, the company is making sustainable mobility more attainable for consumers worldwide.
Shaping The Future Of Electric Mobility
The launch of the Hua Xianzi and its pioneering sodium-ion battery technology signals a bold step towards a more sustainable future. As advancements in battery performance and affordability continue, the transition to electric vehicles will accelerate, bringing us closer to a world where EVs are the norm rather than the exception.
“The future of electric vehicles looks promising with the introduction of more affordable and sustainable battery technology,” says Karl-Heinz Göbel, CEO of JAC Motors South Africa.
JAC Motors’ forward-thinking approach and dedication to innovation ensure that it will remain at the forefront of the EV industry. By prioritising sustainability, affordability, and cutting-edge technology, JAC is shaping the future of electric mobility — one breakthrough at a time.
