JAC
Heyue SC
This
is the JAC Heyue SC coupe, design-wise based on the TJ Innova S11 concept car
that debuted at the 2009 Shanghai Auto Show.
The
Heyue SC is no concept, it is for real. The price starts from 200.000 yuan.
Power comes from a 2.4-litre with 121 kw and 217 nm, mated to be 5-speed manual, good
for a 205 km/h top speed. Best thing: it is rear-wheel drive. This JAC Heyue is
the biggest surprise for the Beijing Auto Show up until now, and a fine one it
is.
‘Heyue’
is best translated as ‘Harmony & Happiness’ and that indeed is a very
interesting name for a sports car. The Heyue’s design is still sharp after
three years, it seems JAC didn’t change much at all. The Heyue SC will compete
only with the Brilliance BS6 Coupe and the BYD S8, but it is a much wilder
looking thing than those two combined.
