The 2026 Jaecoo J5 Summit is a five-seat compact SUV running a 1.5-litre turbo petrol four making 108kW and 210Nm through a CVT, and it is one of the cheaper ways into a new SUV here. Jaecoo Australia quotes 7.5L/100km combined and 172g/km on the ADR 81/02 cycle, with 384 litres of boot space to the top of the seat back and 480 litres loaded to the roof. Worth knowing before you commit: the braked towing limit is only 750kg, the same as the unbraked figure, so this is not the car for a trailer of any weight, and ANCAP has not published a rating for it.
