Chery Debuts the Restyled Omoda 5 and New Omoda 4 at the Paris Motor Show
Chery Group debuted the updated Omoda 5 and the new Omoda 4 crossover in October 2024 at the Paris Motor Show, expanding its European lineup. The Omoda 5 originally launched on the Italian market earlier in 2024, as alVolante reported. The updated crossover features a newly styled front end with a more sloping nose, revised lightning-bolt headlamps and tail lamps, and a robotic rear design that echoes its sporty, coupe-like profile.
Interior Upgrades and Advanced Cabin Technology
Inside the cabin, the Omoda 5 focuses on passenger comfort with seats that combine ventilation, heating, and massage functions. Cabin insulation relies on 65 sound-absorbing elements and acoustic glass to reduce road noise. An 8-speaker Sony audio system with a subwoofer pairs with ambient lighting throughout the interior. A 15.6-inch 2K central multimedia touchscreen handles vehicle controls and voice commands. Additional cabin features include a fragrance diffuser, a Bluetooth speaker, and an integrated karaoke system. A 540-degree panoramic camera system provides exterior views around the vehicle, including the area directly underneath.
Full Hybrid Powertrain and Structural Safety
Under the hood, the Omoda 5 carries over the fifth-generation SHS-H full hybrid system, which pairs a 1.5-liter gasoline engine with an electric motor to deliver a combined 224 horsepower and 285 Nm of torque. For safety, the crossover features more than 20 advanced driver-assistance systems, seven standard airbags, and a body shell built with 78 percent high-strength steel.
Expanding the Lineup With the Omoda 4
Alongside the updated Omoda 5, the brand introduced the Omoda 4, a compact B-segment SUV previewed earlier at the Turin Auto Show. It shares the same 224-horsepower full hybrid powertrain as the Omoda 5 while offering a boot capacity that ranges from 346 to 1,126 liters with the rear seats folded.
