JAC

JAC is an automotive brand associated with China. Its commonly cited modern founding or brand-launch year is 1964, and its headquarters or principal operating base is in Hefei, Anhui. Understanding that background is important because some names began as independent companies, while others were created later as specialist marques within larger automotive groups. Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group, commonly known as JAC Motors, was founded in 1964 in Hefei. The company began with commercial vehicles and gradually expanded into buses, passenger cars, pickups and components. Its manufacturing experience and partnerships supported growth in China and export markets. JAC is recognised for covering both private and commercial transportation, from compact cars to heavy trucks. It has also invested in battery-electric platforms and intelligent manufacturing as the industry has shifted toward new-energy vehicles.
