Breaking News: JAECOO J5 EV Price Reveal Date Is Finally Here
Good news for people who have been waiting for an affordable family electric car. The JAECOO J5 EV price in Pakistan will be officially announced on 6th November 2026. This is a big moment because the J5 EV is being called Pakistan’s first locally assembled EV, built by Nishat Group’s NexGen Auto at its Faisalabad plant.
The electric SUV was first shown to the public at the Pakistan Auto Show in Lahore in September. Since then, buyers have been asking one question again and again: how much will it cost? That answer is now just days away, and below we explain everything we already know about the car.
JAECOO J5 EV Price in Pakistan: Reveal Date Confirmed
According to the latest update, the official ex-factory JAECOO J5 EV price in Pakistan will be revealed on 6th November. The company has asked interested customers to follow the official OMODA & JAECOO channels and their nearest dealership to get the price, booking details and delivery timeline as soon as they are announced.
Until the official number comes out, we suggest you avoid trusting rumoured prices on social media. Once the price is out, we will update our readers. If you are comparing two-wheelers instead, check our full list of electric bike prices in Pakistan which are much cheaper to own.
Why a Locally Assembled EV Matters for Buyers
The J5 EV is being assembled in CKD (completely knocked down) form. This means the parts are shipped in and the car is put together in Pakistan. The first EV unit rolled off the Faisalabad line in October. The same plant has already produced the J5 HEV and the JAECOO J7 PHEV, and the brand recently crossed 15,000 units.
For an ordinary buyer, a locally assembled EV brings some real benefits:
- Better availability – less waiting for imported stock.
- Spare parts and after-sales service become easier to find locally.
- Bank financing – local assembly opens the door for banks to finance an EV, which was very hard before.
- More confidence that the car will be supported for many years.
JAECOO J5 EV Key Features at a Glance
The company has shared several features of the JAECOO J5 EV that are designed for Pakistani families and road conditions. Here is a simple summary:
| Feature | Details |
|---|---|
| Body type | Compact electric SUV |
| Assembly | Locally assembled (CKD) in Faisalabad |
| Charging | Fast DC charging + home charging |
| Battery warranty | 8 years |
| Vehicle-to-Load (V2L) | 3.3 kW – can power home appliances |
| Camera | 540-degree camera for tight parking |

Vehicle-to-Load: Useful During Load-Shedding
One feature that stands out is the 3.3 kW vehicle-to-load option. In simple words, the car’s battery can be used to run appliances or small equipment. In a country where load-shedding is still common, this can be very handy during power cuts or on a picnic.
Range and Charging
The company says the claimed range is enough for daily city driving and many intercity trips on one charge. With fast DC charging for long trips and home charging at night, owners can plan their travel easily. You can read more about the charging network growth in our report on EV charging stations in Pakistan.
Who Is Behind the JAECOO J5 EV?
OMODA & JAECOO entered Pakistan on 1 August 2025 with a USD 100 million investment. The brands delivered more than 10,000 cars in their first year. Behind them stands Nishat Group, one of the country’s biggest business groups with interests in textiles, cement, banking, insurance, power and agriculture. NexGen Auto has used this strength to build dealerships, a local assembly line and a service network.
For first-time EV buyers, this kind of strong backing is a big comfort. It also shows that Pakistan’s electric vehicle push is now moving from bikes and rickshaws to family cars as well.
What Buyers Should Do Before 6th November
- Decide your budget and compare the electric SUV Pakistan options already on sale.
- Check if your home has a safe space and wiring for a home charger.
- Talk to your bank about EV financing plans.
- Follow official dealership channels for the EV price reveal and booking details.
- If a car is out of budget, look at subsidised two-wheelers through the PAVE registration portal and use the PAVE subsidy calculator to see your savings.
Electric cars still cost more upfront than petrol cars, but running costs are much lower. Many families may first move to an electric scooter or bike — see our guide to electric scooter and scooty prices.
