The Chery Omoda 5 (Chinese: 奇瑞欧萌达5; pinyin: Qíruì Ōuméngdá 5) is a compact crossover SUV produced by Chery since 2022. The Omoda 5 is the first product of the Omoda product series under the Chery brand. [9] In many export markets, the model is marketed as the Omoda C5 or simply Omoda 5 under the separate Omoda marque which is positioned more upmarket than the Chery brand.

According to Chery, the letter "O" from Omoda represents "brand new", while "Moda" means a fashion trend. In some Western markets, the "O" was described as derived from the word "oxygen", while "Moda" means "modern".[10]

Overview

The Omoda 5 was unveiled during the Auto Guangzhou 2021 in November. Production started in February 2022, with scheduled launch on various overseas markets.[4][11] It went on sale in China in the second quarter of 2022.[12]

During its development, the Omoda 5 was known under the codename "X-C". It is the first crossover SUV model of the "Chery 4.0" products that features Chery's newly developed "Art in Motion" design language. The front end consists of a "diamond matrix" front grille.[13] The rear section consists of a slanted rear roofline similar to fastbacks and a double-layered spoiler. Chery claimed that the vehicle is designed with "golden ratio of Pythagoras", with the height-width ratio of Omoda equal to 0.8677.[14]

As a global model, the vehicle is simultaneously developed in left- and right-hand drive formats.[15] Chery claimed that it has been tested around Australia, with major loop tests in the central, eastern and southern regions of Australia, for a total route of nearly 30,000 km (18,600 mi).[16]

The interior of the Omoda 5 is equipped with two integrated 10.25-inch high-definition digital screens that offer control of driving, climate and entertainment settings.[17] Vehicles destined for export markets are equipped with a different interior design, from the dashboard, central console, and door trims, which was styled by Chery's Lead Designer Richard Koo.[9][8]

With the rear seats in the upright position, the luggage capacity is rated at 378 litres (13.3 cu ft), and 1,075 litres (38.0 cu ft) with the rear seats folded.[13]

Powertrain

The Omoda 5 was launched in China with a SQRF4J16 1.6-litre ACTECO TGDI (turbocharged engine with direct fuel injection) engine (marketed as "Kunpeng Power" in China). The engine is rated at 147 kW (200 PS; 197 hp) and 290 N⋅m (29.6 kg⋅m; 214 lb⋅ft) of torque, which is badged as the "290T". The 290T model is mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. Another option is the SQRE4T15C 1.5-litre turbocharged engine badged as "230T", which is rated at 108–115 kW (147–156 PS; 145–154 hp), depending on the market, with 230 N⋅m (23.5 kg⋅m; 170 lb⋅ft) of torque, and mated to a continuously variable transmission (CVT).[18]

For some markets, the 1.6-litre model is available with optional all-wheel drive that uses multi-link rear suspension instead of a torsion beam suspension, which led to a decrease in ground clearance from 190 mm (7.5 in) to 180 mm (7.1 in).[19]

Electric version

A battery electric version with a power output of 150 kW (204 PS; 201 hp) and a 61 kWh battery was introduced at the Auto Shanghai in April 2023. Named the Chery Omoda E5, Omoda E5, Omoda C5 EV or Omoda 5 e-QUA depending on the market,[24][25] the variant adopts a different front end styling along with other design changes. It also lacks any Chery logo and branding.[26][27] It first went on sale in Indonesia in February 2024 as the Omoda E5.[28]
