The Russian-Chinese “Moskvich” on electric traction will see the light before the end of 2022, despite the skeptics. The fully electric version will be equipped with a 50 kW motor and has a range of 410 km. Gasoline versions will be equipped with a 1.6-liter atmospheric engine or a 1.5-liter turbo engine with a capacity of 147 “horses”. Which option do you choose?
It is clear that developing a new model from scratch was a financially overwhelming task for the new owner of a grandiose property. And to get it going, a powerful and financially stable partner was needed. In addition, he understands the specifics of working in the Russian market. And that partner turned out to be the Chinese company JAC, which has been active in the field of electric mobility since 2016.
As a result, the vehicle type approval for the first front-wheel drive Moskvich compact crossover was registered in the Rosreestr database, which in fact turned out to be the JAC JS4. In addition, the SUV is certified in both electric and petrol versions. And now the Moskvich plant has real prospects of returning to the car market.

Perhaps that is why modern factory workers did not deviate from tradition and called the crossover with an internal combustion engine Moskvich 3, and its electric counterpart – Moskvich 3e? The company plans to produce 200 electric and 400 petrol cars by the end of the year. But a real JAC JS4 is also for sale at official dealers of the brand. Collision however…
