The Jaecoo 6 is an electric SUV made in China, sold in two versions. One is rear-wheel drive with a smaller motor. The other is all-wheel drive with much more power. Those two choices lead to quite different road tax bills. This guide walks through the costs.
The insurance figures are examples for one stated driver, as of 1 November 2026. They are a reference point, not a quote for you.
RWD or AWD
The new-car list, read on 2026-10-10, shows two versions, both listed as SUVs:
- Jaecoo 6 Electric RWD 65.69 kWh: 133bhp
- Jaecoo 6 Electric AWD 69.77 kWh: 275bhp
Our quote form has the same pair. The insurance prices are for the AWD 69.77 kWh, the version most of our insurers quote.
What each was listed at
As listed on 2026-10-10, with COE included that day:
- RWD 65.69 kWh: S$184,999
- AWD 69.77 kWh: S$219,999
Dealers update prices after each COE round. Ask for a current figure, and check that offers include the same items.
COE for an electric car
The price page says a fully electric Jaecoo 6 needs a Category A COE if its motor is 110kW (147bhp) or less. A more powerful motor needs Category B.
In the October 2026 2nd round, Category A closed at S$132,004 and Category B at S$131,901. The COE page has later results.
Road tax by motor
LTA's formula sets electric road tax by motor power. Before any age surcharge:
- RWD, 133bhp (99kW): S$1,495.68 a year
- AWD, 275bhp (205kW): S$2,117.38 a year
So the AWD costs more each year in road tax as well as more to buy. The RWD's motor is the smaller of the two, and its road tax is the lower figure. If you are torn between the two, set the yearly road tax beside the list price gap. Over a ten-year COE, the road tax difference recurs every year. The surcharge for age starts above 10 years, at +10%, and climbs to +50% above 14 years. The road tax page shows the formula.
Insurance: one insurer so far
The Jaecoo 6 price page prices this profile:
- Car: Jaecoo 6 AWD 69.77 kWh, 3 years old, private use, comprehensive cover
- Driver: aged 40, married, office job, 10 years' driving
- Record: 50% NCD, no claims
- Repairs: authorised workshop, no add-ons
Only one insurer prices it online, with two plans. The lower is S$1,030.52 a year. That plan covers collision only. The fuller plan is S$1,353.40. Both carry a S$1,500 excess and both are estimates. Prices include 9% GST.
Eighteen insurers on our panel have no online price for the Jaecoo 6. Two do not quote electric cars online at all. With one insurer, there is no market spread to compare yet.
Two plans, one excess
The two plans share the same S$1,500 excess. What differs is the cover. A collision-only plan may leave out items a full comprehensive plan includes. Read the plan wording before you compare the prices.
How the price changes
The page shows the lowest price when one detail changes:
- No NCD (0%): S$2,169.54, S$1,139.02 more
- 20% NCD: S$1,735.62, S$705.10 more
- Driver aged 27, 3 years' driving, 30% NCD: S$2,261.10, S$1,230.58 more
- Driver aged 65, 20 years' driving: S$1,263.43, S$232.91 more
- New car, registered this year: no online price
- Car 8 years old: S$1,011.90, S$18.62 less
The young driver costs most: the lowest price rises by 119%. Losing NCD is not far behind. For a car registered this year, no insurer gives an online price at all.
If you are buying new
That gap on new cars matters. A buyer of a new Jaecoo 6 cannot see an online figure on our page today. You would need to ask insurers for quotes directly. Check the price page again closer to the time, as more insurers may add the model.
Against other electric cars
The price page compares six electric cars, same driver and car age:
- BYD Sealion 7: S$1,390.72
- BYD Atto 3: S$913.63
- BYD M6: S$861.41
- BMW iX1: S$1,907.27
- Tesla Model 3: S$913.62
- Tesla Model Y: S$939.71
Their average lowest price is S$1,154.39. The Jaecoo 6 costs 11% less. Even so, 4 of the six are cheaper to insure on these details. And the Jaecoo 6 figure is a collision-only plan, which may not match like for like. Other Jaecoo models are on the Jaecoo car insurance page.
What only you can work out
- Charging: home, workplace and public charging differ in cost.
- Parking: season parking where you live and elsewhere.
- ERP: depends on routes and timing.
- Servicing: follow the maker's schedule. Ask what the battery warranty covers.
- Depreciation: what you pay now against what the car fetches later.
