2025 Omoda 9: Chery group's priciest model yet in Australia is a 395kW PHEV SUV
The Omoda 9 may have a familiar name, but it's dramatically different from the last model to wear the Omoda badge here – and considerably more expensive. Indeed, the Omoda 9 – a new flagship for the fledgling Omoda Jaecoo brand – is the most expensive vehicle from parent company Chery ever offered in Australia. Available in a single, fully loaded Virtue trim, the Omoda 9 large SUV – due in Omoda Jaecoo showrooms from early August – is priced from $61,990 before on-road costs. That makes it pricier than the current flagship from Chery's namesake brand, the Tiggo 8 Super Hybrid Ultimate priced at $49,990 drive-away, and the previous Omoda Jaecoo flagship, the Jaecoo J8 Ridge AWD at $54,990 drive-away. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new car. Click here to get a great deal. The Omoda Jaecoo brand is a step up from Chery and consists of more traditionally SUV-styled vehicles bearing the Jaecoo name and sleeker vehicles bearing the Omoda name, with the Omoda 9 being the first such model in Australia. 'Omoda' was previously used on the Chery C5 and E5 small crossover SUVs, before they were renamed – ostensibly to reduce confusion. But the Omoda 9 is a much larger vehicle than the Chery Omoda 5, measuring 4775mm long, 1920mm wide and 1671mm tall on a 2800mm wheelbase – 35mm longer, 30mm wider and 4mm taller than a Mazda CX-60, which also offers a PHEV powertrain, if on a 70mm shorter wheelbase. It also uses a dramatically different powertrain, as while there's a turbocharged 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine under the bonnet, producing 105kW of power and 215Nm of torque, it's mated with a three-speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission It's also linked with two front electric motors and one rear electric motor, the latter giving the Omoda 9 all-wehel drive. These each produce 75kW/170Nm, 90kW/220Nm and 175kW/310Nm respectively, with the company claiming a combined output of 395kW and a 0-100km/h time of just 4.9 seconds – making it the Chery group's quickest model yet in Australia then, too. These electric motors are powered by a 34kWh nickel manganese cobalt battery, which gives the Omoda 9 an electric-only range under the NEDC cycle of 169km and total combined range of up to 1100km. Standard equipment includes: Don't expect a range of exterior paint colours, though – there are only white, grey, silver and black exterior finishes available, plus a mandatory black interior. The Omoda 9 is backed by an eight-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty for both the vehicle and its high-voltage battery. Omoda Jaecoo also offers eight years of roadside assistance and capped-price servicing. Stay tuned for our full price and specs article on the Omoda 9.

Malaysia needs more homegrown technology, innovation, says Tengku Zafrul
Investment, trade and industry minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz said the launch of the new Jaecoo SUV represents a key milestone in the growing partnership between Malaysia and Chinese automotive brand Chery. (Facebook pic) KUALA LUMPUR : Malaysia needs more locally developed technology and innovation, says investment, trade and industry minister Tengku Zafrul Aziz. He said the government's focus on localisation and high-technology transfer is aimed at creating quality jobs, strengthening technical expertise, and helping small and medium enterprises (SMEs) become global suppliers. 'What we want is a ripple effect, where it spurs local innovation, nurtures engineers and technicians, supports training institutions, and drives broader economic growth. 'This is how true partnerships should work, where the benefits are not just mutual but transformative for the host country's economy,' he said. Tengku Zafrul was speaking at the launch of a new sports utility vehicle by Jaecoo, which he described as a key milestone in the growing partnership between Malaysia and Chinese automotive brand Chery. He noted that as consumers demand higher quality and more innovation, launches like this send a strong message that Malaysia is becoming a strategic hub for global automotive brands seeking to innovate, expand, and compete. 'We welcome Chery's efforts to strengthen its local presence, whether through higher local content, vendor development, or skills transfer. 'This is a critical step in turning Malaysia into a high-value manufacturing and research and development hub for next-generation mobility,' he said. For long-term growth, Malaysia is encouraging automotive players, particularly original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), to position the country as a regional hub with a strong focus on export-driven production. Tengku Zafrul said the automotive sector remains a major pillar of the economy, supporting over 700,000 jobs and contributing more than 4% of Malaysia's GDP. 'As outlined in the National Automotive Policy 2020, our goal is for the industry to contribute RM104.2 billion to the GDP by 2030. 'To reach that target, we must move up the value chain, mainly by investing in R&D and building capabilities in software, electronics, and sustainable materials. We should not just be focusing on assembly or trading,' he said.
