JAC explained the reduction of the model range in the Russian Federation with a course towards localization

JAC explained the reduction of the model range presented on the official website in Russia by the transition to localization of production. Now the Chinese brand offers Russian customers three models instead of seven. This was reported on November 13 by Rossiyskaya Gazeta with reference to the company's press service.

"The brand's official website reflects, first of all, those models whose production is fully established at the facilities of Russian partner enterprises. This decision is aimed at ensuring that the information available to customers on the central resource is consistent with the brand's current production and marketing strategy," JAC explained.

The price lists for the J7 liftback, T8 pickup truck, and JS3 and JS6 crossovers have disappeared from the brand's website. The current Russian lineup includes the T8 Pro and T9 pickups, as well as the RF8 minivan. At the same time, the company clarified that information about the current availability of other models is stored on the official dealers' websites.

JAC stressed that the change in the model range on the central website does not affect warranty and service obligations. The company also announced its intention to expand local production together with Russian partners. In the future, other JAC models may be launched in Russia.
