His conclusion: "The car has exceeded the predicted values."

Admittedly, the test project of Felix Egolf, the Swiss Hypermiler, made us nervous. He wanted to drive our city vehicle to zero battery and thus fully test our promise of 330 km range.

The test consumption was 9.3 kWh per 100 km and was therefore around 20% lower than the official WLTP value. Its test route was 321.2 km and included the Brünig Pass.

When we returned to Wohlen, there was still 5% battery capacity left, which means that Felix would have covered a total of 337.6 km with our JAC e-JS1. Here is his test report:

This is the JAC eJS1! Never heard of it?

It is the e-car for which the 'range kilometer' is by far the cheapest - at least in Switzerland.

The JAC eJS1 is definitely not 'just' a city car. On the contrary: this car really is a great way to travel on electricity, quite far and at a low cost. It is simply not a vehicle for impatient drivers. The Americans would call it a 'right lane cruiser'. In the agglomeration, you can save yourself some rough buses by selecting the long range mode and limiting the speed to around 65 km/h. Only the maximum speed is limited, not the performance. When you get onto a country road, you simply switch to economy mode. Okay, with 61 hp, a speed of 120 km/h should actually be possible (the JAC eJS1 is limited to the speed of coaches...).

For 17,900 you get a well-equipped small car with very decent handling. I was pleasantly surprised by this little electric car.
