By Editor_wr Last updated May 2, 2025
OMODA & JAECOO, the next-generation mobility brand redefining automotive innovation, announced bold new strategic developments for the UAE market. In a recent interview, Shawn Xu, CEO of OMODA & JAECOO Automobile International, outlined the brand's ambitious plans to position Dubai as a pivotal global hub for innovation, new media, and customer experience excellence.
'As one of the world's most dynamic and inclusive cities, Dubai offers unparalleled advantages in brand communication, market expansion, and resource integration,' said Xu. 'We are proud to establish Dubai not just as our Middle East headquarters but as a cornerstone of OMODA & JAECOO's global vision.'
Under this strategic framework, O&J will accelerate its deployment of cutting-edge models, including the highly anticipated iCar series and the all-new J5, catering to the region's growing demand for intelligent, diverse mobility solutions.
Complementing its product expansion, O&J is significantly enhancing its regional service capabilities. A state-of-the-art Middle East spare parts warehouse has already been operationalized, streamlining supply chain efficiency and dramatically reducing delivery times. Furthermore, the brand is rapidly advancing its localized service network, ensuring faster, more precise, and customer-centric experiences across every touchpoint.
Xu emphasized, 'Looking ahead, OMODA & JAECOO will continue to deepen our footprint in the UAE, building a sustainable development model that fuses brand warmth with technological strength. Our goal is to shape a mobility experience that is future-forward, emotionally resonant, and distinctly human.'
In addition to market strategy, Xu highlighted the technological edge of O&J's groundbreaking Super Hybrid System—a key differentiator in the brand's product portfolio.
'From the outset, our Super Hybrid System was engineered with real-world user needs in mind: stronger power, longer range, lower fuel consumption, and unmatched driving comfort,' Xu explained. 'It effortlessly handles city acceleration and high-speed overtaking, offers extended range to reduce refueling anxiety, enhances energy efficiency for cost-conscious users, and ensures a smooth, quiet ride for everyday enjoyment.'
Designed to meet the evolving expectations of global consumers, O&J's Super Hybrid System exemplifies the brand's commitment to empowering a smarter, greener, and more exhilarating future of mobility.
With Dubai's strategic influence as a launchpad, OMODA & JAECOO are set to redefine what modern, intelligent mobility means for the UAE—and the world.

British car showrooms may feature AI-powered robots as salesmen soon
Robots powered by AI could soon be selling cars to customers in the UK as a global car manufacturer debuts an unusual new member of staff. Omoda and Jaecoo owner Chery has showed off robotic sales assistant 'Mornine' at the Shangai Motor Show on 23 April. It can greet customers, show them around a car, and even make them a tea or coffee. The AI robot uses machine learning to improve its performance, learning from interactions with customers. It has been trialled in showrooms in Malaysia and could soon be rolled out worldwide, a spokesperson for Chery said. The car maker added that Mornine has capabilities including perception, cognition, decision making and task execution and explained the 'ideal use case' was for 'dealer-level admin and service.' The car brand's robotics experts said Mornine uses speech and vision inputs that allow it to 'accurately interpret commands including physical gestures'. Ian Wallace, spokesperson for Chery's Omoda and Jaecoo brands in the UK, said Mornine could even be offered for use in people's homes in the future if showroom trials go well. He said: 'Mornine is an intelligent showroom aid. She can show customers around a vehicle, she can answer questions and she can make teas and coffees, so in a busy showroom environment, if staff are tied up, she's there to be a helpful face of the brand. 'She has learning capabilities so she can react to commands and learn your voice so if you were to use her in a household environment she would start to learn what you like and don't like.' Chery said the robot uses 'automotive-grade hardware' to allow it to walk upright and it has 'dexterous hands' to allow it to grip items. It can also distinguish between voices to identify different customers. The car maker also showcased a robotic dog called 'Argos' at the Shanghai show. They say the AI-powered animal is designed to offer companionship to those who are unable to keep real pets at home. The Independent

Jordan's ICT sector revenues grew tenfold since 2000 — Int@j
AMMAN — Chairman of the Information and Communication Technology Association of Jordan (Int@j) Eid Sweis on Saturday said that the Kingdom's ICT sector has witnessed a "qualitative" shift over the past decades, during which its revenues have increased nearly tenfold since the beginning of the millennium. Sweis noted that this growth has made the ICT sector a 'pillar' of the national economy and reflects Jordan's "success" story in independence and development, coinciding with the Kingdom's celebrations of its 79th Independence Day. He said that this progress would not have been achieved without the Royal directives and continuous support of His Majesty King Abdullah, who has directed, in various forums, to boost Jordan's position as a "regional centre" in the ICT field, develop digital infrastructure and stimulate entrepreneurship and innovation. Sweis added that His Majesty pays special attention to youth and digital entrepreneurship as the "true" gateway to the economy of the future. He said that these visions have been translated into "clear" executive policies and integrated cooperation between the public and private sectors. Sweis pointed to the "diligent" follow-up and high-level efforts exerted by HRH Crown Prince Hussein in supporting the digital and technology sector. He referred to the Crown Prince's continuous monitoring of digital transformation projects, and his directives on the necessity of empowering youth in the digital economy and innovation, which have enhanced Jordan's "attractiveness" for technology investment and provided an incubator environment for startups. Sweis noted that the number of employees in the sector has reached over 46,000, compared with only about 10,000 in 2000, marking a growth of more than 4.5 times, including about 10,000 employees working in the "outsourcing" sector for local, regional and international companies that base their operations in Jordan. He said that the sector's revenues have jumped from about $320 million in the early 2000s to over $3.6 billion today, recording a more than tenfold increase, reflecting the sector's "vitality and its ability" to directly contribute to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). In the education field, he said the number of graduates in ICT and engineering majors from Jordanian universities has increased from less than 1,000 per year at the beginning of the millennium to some 7,000 per year currently, 40 per cent of whom are female. Sweis announced that over 39 universities, both public and private, offer specialisations in the sector, enhancing qualified human capital. He noted that the Kingdom currently has three telecom companies providing 4G services in all regions and 5G in major cities, with a plan to reach 50 per cent 5G coverage by 2028 as part of enhancing the digital infrastructure. Regarding startups, he indicated that a total of over 450 startups are operating in various sectors, mainly financial technology, e-learning, e-commerce, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, block chain, electronic games and tourism, with support from specialised business accelerators and investment funds. The sector's exports of IT services and products have increased from less than $50 million two decades ago to over $300 million today, constituting a nearly six-fold increase, he pointed out. Sweis said that the telecom sector's total revenues amounted to JD1.2 billion, while investment in the sector in 2023 amounted to around JD347 million. He said that 45 telecom service companies are licensed, and the percentage of fixed internet subscriptions has reached 7 per cent, around 800,000 subscribers, while the internet coverage rate of cellular networks has reached 67 per cent. © Copyright The Jordan Times.
