JAC’s futuristic concept DE-FINE will make its debut at the Melbourne Motor Show on April 5 and 6.
The DE-FINE concept showcases JAC Motors’ Guiding Intelligence with Intelligence framework for the future.
It is JAC Motors’ vision for continuous innovation, sustainability, and advanced automotive design, and was recognised for this when it won the prestigious 2024 Red Dot Award for Outstanding Design Concept.
DE-FINE’s streamlined styling is inspired by interstellar exploration, its architecture sets new benchmarks in performance and efficiency, and its driver-focused interior pushes boundaries for comfort and immersion.
JAC Motors Australia’s Managing Director Ahmed Mahmoud said, “We are thrilled to bring our visionary and award-winning concept for future mobility to Australia for the first time.
“The JAC DE-FINE is a bold vision of the future of sustainable transportation that highlights JAC Motors’ pioneering spirit and passion for innovation. These two qualities are integral to every JAC Motors vehicle, from this futuristic showstopper to the hard-working and value-packed JAC T9 Dual-Cab 4X4 Ute.”
Mr Mahmoud said that JAC Motors’ Melbourne Motor Show will provide Australians with the unique opportunity to see and experience vehicles for today, tomorrow and beyond.
“The JAC motor-show stand is not just about the future. It will also showcase our stars of today. In addition to the JAC DE-FINE concept, we’re bringing Australia’s Safest Ute*, the JAC T9 Dual-Cab 4X4, which not only offers fantastic value, it is fast becoming the smart choice for Australians who work and play hard.”
DE-FINE is built on JAC Motors’ High-Performance Intelligent Architecture core technology base, powered by a smart integrated brain and nervous system.
The 800-volt electrical system includes a 460kW silicon-carbide motor that enables the concept to accelerate to 100km/h in around three seconds in all-wheel-drive mode.
Underneath, DE-FINE rides on JAC Motors’ future-proofed Cross-Domain Integration Intelligent Chassis which provides six-way active control, the capability for electric and hybrid power options, as well as rechargeable and exchangeable energy sources.
The design is flexible and expandable, providing both two- and all-wheel drive capabilities alongside fifteen advanced driver assistance safety technologies.
Inside, the Skyline Intelligent Cockpit boasts a panoramic 50-inch forward-mounted curved screen and a 15.6-inch central screen for vibrant and interactive multimedia display.
The cockpit delivers a sophisticated human-vehicle interaction experience, integrating ambient lighting, sound, and voice interaction to empower scenarios such as immersive movie watching and interactive gaming when not driving.
Safety is also a paramount JAC Motors pillar for future mobility, and the DE-FINE incorporates the latest ADAS plus the new generation ADS 3.0 Advanced Driving Systems.
This system promotes safe and reliable self-driving while integrating anthropomorphic decision-making techniques and a collaborative vehicle-road-cloud infrastructure.
It ensures user-friendly interfaces and elevated safety standards, not just for autonomous operations but also for human drivers.
