The JAC Yueyue is a 5-door hatchback from JAC Group, built from 2010 to 2019, as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market. Under the bonnet: 1.0L I4. Goran Popović drew it.
How it came about
JAC Yueyue is a city car produced by JAC under the Heyue passenger car series that debuted on the 2010 Beijing Auto Show.
The hardware
Power comes from 1.0L I4; other versions carried different engines, listed in the specification table below. It weighs 890 kg. It shifts through a 5-speed manual / 4-speed automatic. The layout matters: the engine drives the front wheels, the packaging choice that gives a small car a big cabin. The wheelbase is 2390 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Family and rivals
Its family tree is legible: assembly was at Hefei, China. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Nissan Leaf, the Jeep Grand Cherokee, the Lexus LFA — show what else the money bought that year. Its JAC Group stablemates include the Heyue A20 and the Heyue A30.
