Compare the Jaecoo 5 vs Jaecoo E5
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between these two models comes down largely to how they deliver their power. The electric Jaecoo E5 is more powerful than the petrol Jaecoo 5, and its electric motors feel smooth in town. In the Jaecoo 5, the petrol engine and automatic gearbox frustrate at low speeds because they do not respond quickly to your inputs, making it difficult to drive smoothly. Beyond their power delivery, they feel very similar on the road. Around town, both suffer from fidgety suspension that never really settles on rough surfaces. On twisty roads, both lean too much in corners and have vague steering, though each settles down nicely once you reach motorway speeds. Practicality is closely matched as well, right down to the unlined underfloor boot storage where items will rattle around on bare metal in both cars.
