Uber and JAC Motors Formalized a Strategic Partnership to Promote the Adoption of Electric Vehicles and Stimulate Sustainable Mobility in the Country. The Agreement Focuses on Offering the E-JS1 at Special Prices for Uber Partner Drivers.

JAC Motors and Uber are establishing an innovative partnership in Brazil, offering the electric vehicle E-JS1 at special prices for Uber drivers in various metropolitan areas. The agreement, effective from Thursday, (12/14), includes discounts, priority in after-sales services, and encourages the transition to a more sustainable fleet. With the E-JS1, drivers can save significantly on daily fuel costs, contributing to electric mobility and energy efficiency in Brazilian urban transport.

Sustainable Transformation in Urban Mobility: JAC Motors and Uber Encourage the Adoption of Electric Vehicles

The main objective of the partnership is to encourage the transition to a more eco-friendly fleet on the Uber platform while providing financial advantages to the professionals.

As established, Uber drivers will have the opportunity to purchase the E-JS1 at fleet prices, in addition to receiving a wallbox and a portable charger as part of the package.

They will also enjoy significant discounts of up to 25% on all after-sales services and will have priority at authorized workshops for inspections and maintenance.

Without the special benefits of the partnership, the conventional price of the electric vehicle E-JS1 is R$ 126,900.

The initial promotion is available in the metropolitan areas of Curitiba, Recife, São Paulo, Brasília, Rio de Janeiro, Porto Alegre, and Florianópolis.

App Drivers Can Save Up to R$ 10 Daily with the Partnership for Acquiring the E-JS1

JAC Motors emphasizes that the collaboration was designed especially for drivers who travel more than 200 km daily, spending an average of more than R$ 100 per day on traditional fuels.

With the transition to the E-JS1, the estimate is that these daily costs will decrease by about R$ 10 with recharges.

Sergio Habib, president of JAC Motors Brazil, highlights the significant savings provided by the E-JS1, stating: “It’s as if a liter of gasoline costs only an average of R$ 0.50! And this is if you use your home electricity, as you can recharge at various points where the energy is free.”

Mechanically, the E-JS1 is equipped with an electric motor of 45 kW (62 hp) power and 15.3 kgfm of torque, providing acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in 10.7 seconds.

The lithium-iron-phosphate battery, with a capacity of 30.2 kWh, offers a range of 161 km by the Inmetro standard or 250 km in real life.

Fast charging at charging stations (from 15% to 85%) takes only 1 hour, while the 7 kW home wallbox charger requires 3.5 hours.

Additionally, a full charge at a home outlet takes 11 hours.

With this strategic partnership, JAC Motors and Uber aim to not only transform the driving experience for drivers but also make a significant contribution to sustainability and energy efficiency in the urban transport sector in Brazil.
