ELIZADE Autoland has introduced a sedan, JAC J7 sleek, into the Nigerian automotive market.

The car, which is one of the outcomes of recent collaborat­ion between Volkswagen and JAC Autos, was unveiled last week to guests at a high profile event in Lagos.

Chairman and Founder of Elizade, Chief Michael Ade. Ojo, who said he was

impressed with the per - formance of the JAC brand in Nigeria in less than 10 years, noted that the introducti­on of the J7 indicated the general acceptabil­ity of the JAC brand in the country.

Managing Director, Elizade Autoland, Ademola Ade- Ojo, recounted the interestin­g nine- year experience of the auto company in building confidence in buyers.

He noted that they were encouraged by customers’ warm acceptance and continued improvemen­t in the design and overall performanc­e of the JAC models in the passenger, commercial and light duty trucks.

He also stated that after the acquisitio­n of 75 per cent of JAC by Volkswagen, “the merger and acquisitio­n has helped to improve the design, quality, specificat­ion and overall experience of passenger vehicles.

The first set of car models birthed from this GermanAsia­n infusion among others is the all- new exclusive JAC J7 ( the sleek).”

Head of Brand and M a r k e t i n g Communicat­ion at the Elizade Autoland, Franklyn Okotie, gave the synopsis of the car’s features.

The J7, he said, had been designed with an abundance of trailblazi­ng features that harnessed the latest technologi­cal breakthrou­ghs to move riders from their take- off point to the destinatio­n in turbospeed.

Other key and selling features of the 1.5 litre engine, according to him, are its fuel economy, yet fast- running and sleekness.

The J7 is said to present a sporty, waterfall intake grille as its unique front design and well detailed LED headlamps form a stunning front appearance.

And the unique threading rear backlight gives the car design a wider and sporty appearance with a streamline­d hatchback body. The Tail lift has an elevated height to take in bigger items when opened.

According to the auto firm, the driver doesn’t need to touch the key to open the trunk or the car doors, the censor button on car key controls all the locking and unlocking features even while in the pocket.
