2025 Chery E5 price and specs
The Chery Omoda E5 small electric SUV has become the Chery E5, with the Omoda lettering on its front and rear ends and steering wheel replaced with Chery lettering.
That's because Chery will launch the Omoda brand in its own right in Australia during the second half of 2025. While the Chery C5 (formerly the Chery Omoda 5) and E5 are sold under this brand in other markets, they won't be here.

The E5 Urban (formerly the Omoda E5 BX) is now priced from $36,990 before on-road costs, matching the promotional pricing available for its predecessor since early this year. That's a whopping $6000 less than when that model was released late last year.
The E5 Ultimate (formerly the Omoda E5 EX) is now priced at $40,990 before on-roads, which is $1000 more than the promotional pricing introduced earlier this year but $5000 less than at launch.
The spec list for the E5 is essentially unchanged from the Omoda E5, with a couple of exceptions.
'Based on a global realignment, the only amends are the removal of navigation in the EX/BX models, and puddle lamps in EX,' said a Chery Australia spokesperson.
'Both models continue to have Apple CarPlay/Android Auto for navigation requirements.'
The Chery E5 is on sale now.
Drive-away pricing differs from state to state.
The E5 features MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension. Supplied Credit: CarExpert

Capped-price servicing information isn't yet available, though the outgoing Omoda E5 requires servicing every 12 months or 20,000km, with the total price over seven years working out to $1901.34.
The Chery E5 has a five-star safety rating from ANCAP, based on testing conducted in 2022 of the Omoda 5 on which it's based. Supplied Credit: CarExpert

Honda Australia not worried about Chinese competition
Honda Australiasays it has what it takes to compete with the growing number of Chinese brands in our market, as it looks to rebuild after several tough sales years. While Honda is pitched – and priced – as a more premium brand than many Japanese rivals, it's facing increased competition from new brands from China. Chinese automakers are aiming ever higher, expanding beyond the cheap and cheerful offerings they're known for to more premium products – witness the introduction of Geely's Zeekr marque, MG offering products from the IM Motors premium brand, GWM offering pricier Tank SUVs, and BYD readying its more luxurious Denza offshoot for Australia. But while Chinese brands are aiming upmarket, Honda Australia says it will focus on its plan regardless of who enters the local scene, with managing director Rob Thorp confident the automaker is on track for growth in Australia. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. "It's a competitive landscape – so whether it is the Chinese competitors, or the Koreans or the Germans – or whatever it may be, that just becomes the competitive landscape we have to deal with," Mr Thorp told CarExpert. "It's a free market, they've got the right opportunity to compete here, it is what it is. "I think for us, we're very clear on our proposition in the markets and what our competitive strengths are. I think the challenge we have is to ensure that enough consumers know that." What are those strengths the Honda boss believes will hold the brand in good shape in Australia over the next decade? "I think of it from the quality of the product that you see, the quality of the customer care and service you receive, the longevity of the models and the relationship we have with you during the ownership period," he explained. "So we're very comfortable we've got the ingredients to be successful in this market – but they're competitors, whatever and wherever they come from – that's just the environment we have to work in." The Japanese brand is expanding its hybrid lineup, which will include the introduction of the hybrid-powered Prelude sports car here next year, and plans to launch its first electric vehicle (EV) before the end of 2026, too. It has, however, ruled out bringing its luxury brand sold overseas, Acura, to local showrooms. Honda posted its lowest sales on record in this country in 2022 and 2023, following the move to a fixed-price agency model, a reduction in the number of dealers in its network, and the discontinuation of more affordable products like the Jazz. The number of brands in Australia has continue to increase, making our market – already saturated given the number of brands competing for sales of only 1.2 million vehicles each year – even more cut-throat. It led chief operating officer of Chery-owned Omoda Jaecoo, Roy Muñoz, to recently declare more brands benefited new-car buyers and only improved showroom offerings through an ultra-competitive climate.

2026 KGM Rexton price and specs: Former SsangYong SUV gets more kit for more money
The seven-seat KGM Rexton large SUV has finally received additional safety tech in Australia, years after these features were added in its home market. The move to electrically assisted power steering means the Korean Ford Everest rival now has lane-keep assist, and it's also picked up adaptive cruise control – something revealed for Korean-market models back in 2020. The base ELX gains leatherette upholstery and new-look LED daytime running lights, as well as sequential indicators front and rear. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. The Advance (formerly Adventure) picks up rear-seat sun blinds, the Ultimate gains a wireless phone charger, and the Sport Pack gains leather/suede upholstery and some minor trim revisions. Otherwise, the Rexton is unchanged, though prices have increased by upwards of $2500. The Rexton is a cut-price alternative to the likes of the Everest, but also has to contend with other challenger-brand models like the Mahindra Scorpio and LDV D90. Pricing Drivetrains and Efficiency All Rextons feature a part-time four-wheel drive system with an automatic locking rear differential. Dimensions The Rexton has 236 litres of luggage space behind the third row, expanding to 641L with it dropped (measured to the seatbacks) and 1806L with both the second and third rows folded (measured to the roof). Servicing and Warranty The KGM Rexton is backed by a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty, with five years of roadside assistance. Servicing is required every 12 months or 15,000km, whichever comes first. KGM Australia hasn't announced new capped-price servicing details for 2026. The outgoing 2025 Rexton has seven years of capped-price servicing, with prices as follows: Safety The KGM Rexton has never been tested by ANCAP. Standard safety equipment includes: Adaptive cruise control (NEW) Autonomous emergency braking Blind-spot monitoring Lane-keep assist (NEW) Lane departure warning Rear cross-traffic alert Reversing camera Front and rear parking sensors The Ultimate adds a surround-view camera.
