2025 Geely EX5 price and specs: Sharp pricing for Model Y rival

Perth Now6 days ago

The returning Geely brand's debut product in Australia is even cheaper than expected.
The mid-sized Geely EX5 electric SUV is priced from $40,990 before on-road costs in Complete trim, with the Inspire priced at $44,990 before on-roads. That's $2500 less than pricing previously published on industry price guide Redbook.
That makes it $1000 more than the smaller BYD Atto 3 Essential, and thousands less than other mid-sized electric SUVs like the top-selling Tesla Model Y.

2026 JAC T9 PHEV Australian Edition dual-cab ute unveiled

What may be the Australian-spec 2026 JAC T9 PHEV dual-cab ute has made its public debut at the 2025 Greater Bay Area motor show in Shenzen, China as one of six new JAC vehicles planned for local showrooms. The JAC Hunter PHEV shown in these images from Car News China will be badged T9 in Australia, joining the current diesel-powered ute on sale here since January 2025. It will give JAC a direct competitor to the BYD Shark 6, GWM Cannon Alpha and Ford Ranger PHEV dual-cab utes when it launches here in early 2026. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. The T9/Hunter PHEV was already revealed earlier this year, though the vehicle showed off at the Melbourne motor show had quite a different look with all-terrain tyres, black wheels and a black sports bar. This Australian Edition revealed in China, in contrast, features 18-inch 'aerodynamic' alloy wheels running all-season tyres, like the battery-electric version of the T9. There's also blue badging, while the front tow hooks appear to have been removed and the sports bar appears to have a chrome finish. It's unclear whether local-spec T9 PHEVs will look more like the Chinese show car or the Melbourne show car, or if we'll get the option of both looks. The T9 PHEV is powered by a 160kW 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with a 130kW front axle and 150kW rear axle motor providing all-wheel drive. Combined output is a 385kW and a hefty 1000Nm with a 715kg payload – against the diesel T9's 1045kg – and braked towing rating of 3500kg to outmuscle the diesel versions' 3200kg rating. The 31.2kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery provides a claimed 100km of electric driving – more than the Ford Ranger PHEV 's 49km and identical to the BYD Shark 6 's range. The ute also has vehicle-to-load (V2L) charging capability so it can power electrical appliances. The interior sees a new four-spoke steering wheel design in place of the two-spoke wheel seen diesel versions in local showrooms, with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and 10.4-inch centre screen. A long-wheelbase version sold overseas increases the standard 5330mm length by 290mm but won't be offered here. Pricing and full specs have yet to be announced for the T9 PHEV, with this information likely to be announced closer to its early 2026 launch. The T9 EV also shown in Melbourne in April has not yet been locked in for an Australian on-sale.

All the new SUVs coming to Australia from Chery and Omoda Jaecoo in 2025

It can be hard keeping track of all the new vehicles coming to Australia from China, let alone those from its leading vehicle exporter Chery. After announcing the Jaecoo brand last year, Chery said in March it would introduce Omoda as another marque in Australia. The automaker considers Omoda Jaecoo to be one brand, and not every dealer that picks up an Omoda Jaecoo franchise locally will also sell Chery-badged vehicles. Hundreds of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now. Get the experts on your side and score a great deal. Browse now. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Jaecoo commenced sales of its J7 mid-size SUV last month, with the J8 large SUV following this month. But that's not it for Omoda Jaecoo this year, while Chery's namesake brand also has multiple launches left this year. The Chery brand's two mid-size SUVs in Australia are getting a refresh in July which will coincide with the introduction of the Chery Super Hybrid plug-in hybrid (PHEV) system. Supplied Credit: CarExpert The Tiggo 7 Pro and Tiggo 8 Pro Max are also expected to be renamed simply Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8. Chery Australia has thus far shared only exterior images of the updated Tiggo 8, which differs from the model currently sold here with a revised grille insert, front bumper and headlights. The PHEV models feature a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine mated with a stepless dedicated hybrid transmission and an 18.3kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery, as with the related Jaecoo J7 SHS. Supplied Credit: CarExpert While Chery hasn't confirmed outputs for the local-spec Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8 PHEVs, the J7 SHS produces total system outputs of 255kW of power and 525Nm of torque. The brand has, however, confirmed electric range of over 90km on an unspecified test cycle, with total driving range said to exceed 1200km. Unlike many PHEVs, Chery vehicles fitted with the SHS system also support DC fast-charging, with a battery recharge from 30 to 80 per cent taking a claimed 19 minutes. The first Omoda-branded vehicle to appear in Omoda Jaecoo showrooms will be the flagship C9 large SUV, due here in August as a flagship five-seat crossover SUV. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Pricing and specifications for the Omoda C9 will be announced closer to launch. However, after first being approved for sale in Australia over 12 months ago, fresh government approval documents for the C9 have been published. This time, the turbocharged 183kW 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine and eight-speed automatic combination previously seen in documents has been joined by a PHEV powertrain. The all-wheel drive SUV mates a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with a three-speed hybrid transmission, with two of the electric motors located within the transmission unit. A third electric motor is situated at the back. The petrol engine produces 105kW, the front electric motors produce 75kW and 90kW, and the rear electric motor produces 120kW. Supplied Credit: CarExpert While total system output and battery capacity aren't listed, looking to other export markets the Omoda C9 is offered with 19.43kWh or 34.46kWh batteries, and offers an electric-only range of up to 150km on the WLTP cycle. With the tri-electric motor setup, the Chinese brand claims total system outputs of 440kW of power and 915Nm of torque and a 0-100km/h time of 4.9 seconds. The Omoda C9 measures 4775mm long, 1920mm wide and 1671mm tall on a 2800mm wheelbase, which will make it one of the largest mid-size SUVs on the market. It's 35mm longer, 30mm wider and 4mm taller than a Mazda CX-60, which also offers a PHEV powertrain, though it sits on a 70mm shorter wheelbase. MORE: 2025 Omoda C9: Flagship PHEV mid-size SUV locked in for Australia The Chinese-market Chery Tiggo 9 is already reaching Omoda Jaecoo showrooms this month as the Jaecoo J8, but there's a slightly different version of this large SUV that's also exported from China. Supplied Credit: CarExpert The global Chery Tiggo 9, sold in markets like Africa, Russia and the Middle East, features unique interior styling, while externally it can be differentiated by its grille, C/D-pillar design, and other details. It's coming here during the third quarter (July to September) of 2025. Given Chery's focus on the 'family, urban buyer', the Tiggo 9 is set to miss out on some of the more decadent features in the J8 such as its fragrance dispenser. Supplied Credit: CarExpert However, given how widely available luxury features like ventilated front seats and panoramic sunroofs are in the Chery Australia lineup, we don't expect the Tiggo 9 to be barebones at all. Global Tiggo 9 models also feature a different dashboard design with a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster and 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen. Chery Australia hasn't confirmed specifications for the Tiggo 9, so we don't yet know whether it'll be offered with both petrol and plug-in hybrid power, or with both two- and three-row seating configurations. The petrol engine, shared with the J8, is a turbocharged 2.0-litre petrol mill outputting 183kW and 385Nm. Supplied Credit: CarExpert The plug-in hybrid combines a 115kW/220Nm 1.5-litre petrol engine with a three-speed transmission and a 165kW/390Nm electric motor, for total system outputs of 280kW and 610Nm. The J8 is launching here with only five seats, despite a six-seat configuration being offered overseas. While the local arm says it'll provide feedback from customers to head office, offering the Tiggo 9 with a seven-seat configuration locally and restricting the J8 to a five-seat layout could be a significant point of differentiation. Also unclear at this stage is local pricing. The five-seat J8 opens at $49,990 drive-away, while the Chery brand's current local flagship – the Tiggo 8 Pro – currently tops out at $43,990 drive-away. MORE: 2026 Chery Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8: PHEV power coming for updated SUVs Chery already offers petrol and electric vehicles in Australia, and now it's introducing the intermediate steps in electrification. Supplied Credit: CarExpert After the launch of the Tiggo 7 and Tiggo 8 PHEVs, Chery will introduce a conventional hybrid version of its entry-level Tiggo 4 small SUV. This pairs a naturally aspirated 71kW/118Nm 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with a 1.83kWh battery and an electric motor delivering 150kW and 310Nm to the front wheels. It has yet to confirm total power and torque figures. Supplied Credit: CarExpert Chery claims fuel economy of 5.4L/100km versus 7.3L/100km in the standard turbo-petrol 1.5-litre four, with the 0-100km/h time slashed from 10.6 seconds to just 9.4. While pricing for the new Tiggo 4 Hybrid has yet to be revealed, expect a sharp sticker. The petrol-powered Tiggo 4 (pictured) is Australia's cheapest SUV, opening at just $23,990 drive-away. Even the top-spec Ultimate rings up at just $26,990 drive-away. MORE: Chery Tiggo 4 Hybrid coming to Australia with 1000km range Revealed late last year, the J5 is a small crossover SUV measuring 4380mm long, 1860mm wide and 1650mm tall on a 2620mm wheelbase, making it around the size of a Hyundai Kona. Supplied Credit: CarExpert The company has yet to confirm what the local J5 lineup will look like, and even globally details remain scarce. At first glance, the J5 and larger J7 are easy to mistake with their blocky styling, strong shoulder lines, vertical bar grille, and slightly raked tailgate with a full-width light bar. The J5 differs with a more defined crease down its side, different lighting up front and conventional door handles. Inside, it features a 13.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system, while Jaecoo boasts its 1.45m2 panoramic sunroof is the largest in its class. Supplied Credit: CarExpert It's expected to be powered by a turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol engine, but an electric version was also revealed earlier this year. Featuring unique front-end styling with a closed-off grille area, the J5 features a single-motor front-wheel drive powertrain. According to Paul Tan, this produces 155kW and 288Nm. It's powered by a 60.9kWh battery providing 470km of electric-only range on the NEDC cycle. Chery has confirmed the Jaecoo J6, a rebadged 03 from electric brand iCar, 'is not slated for our market'. Supplied Credit: CarExpert There is another model confirmed for the Omoda side of Omoda Jaecoo, however, though the company hasn't confirmed launch timing. 'At this stage Omoda 7 is not confirmed when, but definitely it's on the cards to be released at some stage,' said Omoda Jaecoo Australia chief commercial officer Roy Muñoz. 'We are assessing when is the right time to bring [the Omoda 7], just to give each brand, each model its breathing space and time in market. 'We don't want to confuse the market and we just want to make sure everything is timed right.' While Chery also sells sedans under its namesake brand in China, Mr Muñoz said that 'at the moment our primary focus is in the SUV space'.
