After recording this review, we spoke to Jaecoo and discovered there is a function to disable the parking brake without having the driver's seatbelt fastened. You do not require to re-apply this setting each time you begin the automobile, either.

… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … …… This is the brand new Jaecoo 5! It's fair to

state the UK has had a little an

influx of Chinese SUVs striking our streets in 2025, however on looks alone, we believe the Jaecoo 5 might be among the very best new entrants we have actually seen all year! It's available as either an ICE or EV

, however is it just style over substance? Or should you settle for a more established brand for your next SUV? Let's take a closer look … Starting with the outside design, the

Jaecoo is offering us severe Variety Rover vibes. We have actually got our hands on the range-topping edition, which suggests it's an EV without a grille at the front. It looks seriously streamlined and wise, particularly in this green paint job! Stroll along the side, and you 'd be forgiven for misinterpreting the Jaecoo 5 for a Variety Rover Evoque! It's a comparable story around the back, with one function as soon as again borrowed from Range Rover- the rear windshield wiper being hidden at the top of the back window. Step within, and the Jaecoo 5 has a really premium-feeling interior.

There are soft-touch materials throughout the dash and high up on the doors, and being in the centre of the dash is a big vertical screen. The infotainment system features loads of customisation, while likewise having the alternative to wirelessly link to Apple CarPlay and Android Automobile. There's a little, customisable digital driver screen, and the range-topping variation we have here also features leatherette on the seats! The entry-level Jaecoo 5 is powered by a 1.6-litre turbo gas that delivers 147hp. The range-topping edition we have here is

an EV, which is equipped with a 61kWh battery that benefits a range of up to 248 miles. It's likewise equipped with a single electrical motor, which produces 204hp. The Jaecoo 5 has a starting rate of only ₤ 24,505, while the range-topping vehicle we have here is just ₤ 30,505! So what do you

believe- is the Jaecoo 5 among the best-value cars and trucks available today? You'll need to stick with Mat to see for yourself! Mat's Jaecoo 5 Option: Kia EV3 review: Renault Beautiful review: Chapters 00:00 Introduction 00:48 Rate 01:16 Design 02:40 Interior 05:49 Usefulness 06:31 Back

    I have a conspiracy theory that all these Chinese EVs are the same car underneath the slightly different body style and interior. I have driven a few and the bones of the cars feel the same.

      We announce the glad tidings to Muslims, to the peaceful Christians who are closest in affection to Muslims, and to those who are peaceful with Muslims from the Jews. We announce to all of them the glad tidings of the true Messiah, Jesus (Esa) son of Mary (Mariam), in order to beware the followers of the false Messiah; lucifer the accursed satan, who wants to impersonate the Messiah, Esa son of Mariam, and say that he is Allah, ratifying the false doctrine that was planned for the deception of the false Messiah by the extremist Christians (the enemies of the Messiah, Esa son of Mariam, and his mother, before the revelation of the grand Quran). It was not for the Messiah, Esa son of Mariam, to say what he did not have the right to say. Therefore, the wisdom of keeping Allah’s true Messiah Esa son of Mariam, and his mother is decreed. Verily, we announce the glad tidings of the approach of raising the sleeping honored servants of Allah; (Allah’s messenger the Messiah Esa son of Mariam, and his holy mother Mariam daughter of Emran), for they are sleeping in the Ark of tranquility, as they are present on planet Earth with the worlds, and Allah has not yet caused them to die, only Allah has taken their souls as He takes the souls of those who sleep. Indeed, we are truthful..

      “We announce the glad tidings to Muslims, to the peaceful Christians who are closest in affection to Muslims about raising the sleeping honored servants of Allah; (Allah’s messenger the Messiah Esa son of Mariam, and his holy mother Mariam daughter of Emran), Allah’s prayer of forgiveness be upon them and I salute fully, surely they are sleeping in the Ark of tranquility. When those of the Jews – upon whom wrath is brought down – wanted to kill him, verily Allah aided him with Jibreel the Holy Spirit and the angels, so that night just before the arrival of those upon whom wrath is brought down, to him, the Holy Spirit (Jibreel) and the angels preceded them and brought the Ark of tranquility and placed Allah’s messenger the Messiah Esa son of Mariam, on the upper floor of the Ark, and placed his holy mother, Mariam daughter of Emran, on the floor below it. He stopped the plot of the Jews upon whom wrath is brought down, and they placed a body without a soul, made it appear to them as (Esa), so they killed that body by stabbing it with swords and then crucified the head of that body; a plot from Allah so that those upon whom wrath is brought down, would think that they had killed Allah’s messenger the Messiah Esa, son of Mariam. But they neither kill him nor crucify him, but it appeared to them as if they had. Indeed, Allah reminds His servant and messenger, Esa son of Mariam, of His blessing upon him and his mother on the day of raising him from his sleep and gathering them with their neighbors, the messengers (companions of the Cave). Confirming with the word of Allah the Most High: [Al-Mã´edah] 5:109-110
      {۞ يَوْمَ يَجْمَعُ ٱللَّهُ ٱلرُّسُلَ فَيَقُولُ مَاذَآ أُجِبْتُمْ ۖ قَالُوا۟ لَا عِلْمَ لَنَآ ۖ إِنَّكَ أَنتَ عَلَّٰمُ ٱلْغُيُوبِ ‎﴿١٠٩﴾‏ إِذْ قَالَ ٱللَّهُ يَٰعِيسَى ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ ٱذْكُرْ نِعْمَتِى عَلَيْكَ وَعَلَىٰ وَٰلِدَتِكَ إِذْ أَيَّدتُّكَ بِرُوحِ ٱلْقُدُسِ تُكَلِّمُ ٱلنَّاسَ فِى ٱلْمَهْدِ وَكَهْلًا ۖ وَإِذْ عَلَّمْتُكَ ٱلْكِتَٰبَ وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلتَّوْرَىٰةَ وَٱلْإِنجِيلَ ۖ وَإِذْ تَخْلُقُ مِنَ ٱلطِّينِ كَهَيْـَٔةِ ٱلطَّيْرِ بِإِذْنِى فَتَنفُخُ فِيهَا فَتَكُونُ طَيْرَۢا بِإِذْنِى ۖ وَتُبْرِئُ ٱلْأَكْمَهَ وَٱلْأَبْرَصَ بِإِذْنِى ۖ وَإِذْ تُخْرِجُ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ بِإِذْنِى ۖ وَإِذْ كَفَفْتُ بَنِىٓ إِسْرَٰٓءِيلَ عَنكَ إِذْ جِئْتَهُم بِٱلْبَيِّنَٰتِ فَقَالَ ٱلَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا۟ مِنْهُمْ إِنْ هَٰذَآ إِلَّا سِحْرٌ مُّبِينٌ ‎﴿١١٠﴾‏} [سُورَةُ المَائـِدَةِ].

      They are still with you in this worldly life, and they have not left this worldly life. Certainly, they are still in this life until this counted nation among the worlds. Yet, Allah has not yet caused them to die, Allah only has taken their souls as He takes the souls of those who sleep. Indeed we are truthful, ratification of their news in the decisive grand Quran in the word of Allah the Most High: [Al-Mã´edah] 5:17
      {لَّقَدْ كَفَرَ ٱلَّذِينَ قَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّ ٱللَّهَ هُوَ ٱلْمَسِيحُ ٱبْنُ مَرْيَمَ ۚ قُلْ فَمَن يَمْلِكُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا إِنْ أَرَادَ أَن يُهْلِكَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُۥ وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا ۗ وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۚ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ ‎﴿١٧﴾‏} صدق الله العظيم [سُورَةُ المَائـِدَةِ].

      And since they are still with the worlds in the era of this nation, for that Allah the Most High said: [Al-Mã´edah] 5:17
      {فَمَن يَمْلِكُ مِنَ ٱللَّهِ شَيْـًٔا إِنْ أَرَادَ أَن يُهْلِكَ ٱلْمَسِيحَ ٱبْنَ مَرْيَمَ وَأُمَّهُۥ وَمَن فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ جَمِيعًا ۗ وَلِلَّهِ مُلْكُ ٱلسَّمَٰوَٰتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ وَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا ۚ يَخْلُقُ مَا يَشَآءُ ۚ وَٱللَّهُ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَىْءٍ قَدِيرٌ} صدق الله العظيم.

      Indeed, Allah’s messenger Elijah (Elias) and the young prophets (Idris and Elisa’a) – who are the brothers of Elias who believed in their Lord, so Allah increased their guidance and made them prophets to strengthen the support of Allah’s messenger Elias. Verily, they as well do not know what Allah (the Supporter to His messengers in the worldly life) has responded to them! So He made their people to parish when their people plotted against them after the announcement of a man who concealed his faith, then he declared his faith in front of his people in the gathering area, consequently, they killed him. It was not but a single cry, and lo! they were still, silent as ashes. As well, Allah’s messenger, the messiah Esa son of Mariam, does not know what Allah did with his people after that.

      As for Allah’s messenger (Nooh) Noah, he knew that Allah answered his prayer, so He drowned his people. As that, Allah’s messenger Salih, knew that Allah answered his prayer after three days of killing the she-camel, and then they wanted to kill him and his family, so he knew that the earthquake took them. As well, Allah’s messenger Shuaib, knew what Allah responded to him after his people expelled him and those who believed with him from their city, and the earthquake took them. Likewise, Allah’s messenger Moses (Musa), and his brother Aaron (Haroon), -Allah’s prayers of forgiveness be upon them, and I salute with best salutation- surely they knew what Allah responded to them. When Pharaoh and his soldiers schemed a plot against Musa, his brother Haroon, and their people, verily He drowned Pharaoh and his soldiers in the sea while they watched.”

      @R26VH1 No, they sent him a letter stating much the same, and he’s not in China. He also showed letters other European reviewers had sent him. They also were suing people outside China. You have to sign an agreement not to say something bad before they’ll let you review one of their cars, and if you do, they can sue you for violating that agreement.

    Isn’t Jaecoo one of the several Chinese firms Jayemm stated that threatened to sue reviewers who said anything negative about their automobiles, wanted complete control over what was said in the review, and even exhibited letters he received from them about it?

      I have another conspiracy theory, how it’s possible to spot the same car all over the Town. I have seen the same car in almost all public places a car can go. I think it’s a kind of promotion the brand is doing. Personally i don’t trust a Chinese car that has a microphone and camera which is connected to the internet.
