2025 Omoda 9 price and specs
Chery says its spinoff brand Omoda Jaecoo is a step up from its namesake brand, and at the top of the hierarchy is the Omoda 9. Priced at $61,990 before on-road costs, this medium-to-large five-seat crossover SUV is the priciest model ever offered by Chery in Australia. It's arriving in local showrooms in early August, offered exclusively with a tri-motor plug-in hybrid powertrain offering some heady stats: 169km of electric-only range, combined range of up to 1100km, total system power of 395kW, and a claimed 0-100km/h acceleration time of just 4.9 seconds.

The Mazda CX-60 P50e Pure, for context, is priced at $63,290 before on-roads. The Omoda 9 joins the Jaecoo J7 and J8 in Omoda Jaecoo showrooms.

The Omoda 9 rides on MacPherson strut front and multi-link rear suspension with Continuous Damping Control. There are selectable Eco, Normal, Sport, Snow, Sand and Off-road drive modes, and three levels of regenerative braking. The Omoda 9 is backed by an eight-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty for both the vehicle and its high-voltage battery.

Softer Mazda sales weigh on Bermaz Auto
PETALING JAYA: The softening of Mazda sales amid stiff competition from the influx of Chinese marques is likely to weigh on the earnings of Bermaz Auto Bhd (BAuto) for its financial year 2026 ending April 30 (FY26). In a report, CGSI International Research (CGSI Research) said the aggressive expansion of Chinese automotive brands in Malaysia with their competitive pricing and technologically advanced models could erode Mazda's market share, further pressuring BAuto's margins 'Additionally, if macroeconomic conditions weaken, leading to reduced consumer purchasing power, spending on vehicles could decline. This would negatively affect BAuto's sales volume across all its brands and reduce earnings visibility,' the research house noted. For its fourth quarter ended April 30, 2025, the car distributor's core net profit fell 6% year-on-year (y-o-y) and 20% quarter-on-quarter to RM21.5mil due to weaker contributions from its associates. 'FY25 core net profit slumped 55% y-o-y to RM159mil, which is below 85% of our full-year estimate and 95% of Bloomberg consensus,' CGSI Research said. CGSI Research said it is downgrading BAuto's call from 'add' to 'hold' with a lower price-to-earnings-based target price of 84 sen. It also said it cut its forecast FY26 and FY27 earnings per share by 33% and 20%, respectively, to factor in the lower Mazda sales, lower earnings before interests and taxes due to the competitive environment as well as weaker earnings from the sales of spare parts. 'We revise our valuation methodology from the Gordon Growth Model to a price-to-earnings-based approach to better reflect evolving sector dynamics and investor preferences. 'Given structural shifts in the automotive industry, including margin pressure and changing consumer preference, we believe that a price-earnings framework offers a more relevant benchmark,' the research house said. However, on a brighter note, CGSI Research said it expects the lower forecasts for BAuto's earnings to be partially cushioned by its launch lineup, which includes the Mazda CX-60, CX-80, and three Deepal electric vehicles in the third quarter of this year, alongside its XPeng's G6 and X9 models that might provide a higher margin. 'We think there is potential for XPeng's contributions to grow considering that it only formed 13% of BAuto's Malaysia sales volume in over the last year,' it said. CGSI Research noted that BAuto's net cash position was RM244.7mil as of Apr 30. The research house added that there were both positives and negatives for the car distributor. It said upside included the easing of competition in the automotive sector and improving Mazda sales in Malaysia, while downside risks consisted of greater competition from Chinese brands in Malaysia, and a decline in consumer spending power. BAuto closed at 78 sen in yesterday's trading, giving it a market capitalisation of RM902.96mil.

Testing the updated Mazda CX-60 SUV on the roads of Tayside and Fife
The CX-60 was Mazda's biggest and most expensive car until the seven-seat CX-80 came along to steal its perch. The sophisticated five-seat SUV was launched in the autumn of 2022 and was an attempt by Mazda to push its brand upmarket and steal sales from the likes of Volvo, BMW, and Audi. I was on the launch event that summer and while I was wowed by the car's good looks, cosseting ride, and luxurious cabin, I found the handling a bit wallowy. Now Mazda has given the CX-60 a mid-life refresh and they sent an updated car to Dundee for me to try out for a week. As well as some subtle styling tweaks inside and out, the suspension has been upgraded to improve ride and handling. It's available as a plug-in hybrid petrol with the ability to cover up to 39 miles on battery power. Or you can have the 3.3 litre diesel version I drove, which pairs a six-cylinder unit with mild hybrid technology. It's available with either 197 or 251bhp. Whether you should go for the PHEV or the diesel depends largely on how you drive. If you charge at home and rarely do long journeys the PHEV version makes sense. Low benefit-in-kind rates also make it a good option for company car buyers. If you can't be bothered plugging in every night or mainly do long journeys the hybrid isn't as good an option – once the battery's drained economy drops to around 35mpg. The diesel, on the other hand, offers spectacular economy. Despite being an enormous 3.3 litres and pushing a four-wheel drive car that weighs more than two tonnes it has an official fuel economy of 53.3mpg. My week saw me take trips to the far side of Edinburgh, and to Kirkcaldy, Arbroath, and St Andrews, as well as some pootling around Dundee. At the end of all that the trip computer read 52.5mpg. Drivers with a gentler right foot than mine should be able to exceed the official fuel economy figure, which is a rare thing to accomplish. The CX-60 is a handsome car outside and in. The exterior is sharp and well proportioned, with plenty of fine details. Meanwhile, the interior has leather seats, high quality switchgear that is easy to use, and a clear touchscreen. All versions are well equipped, with even entry level models having front and rear parking sensors, a rear parking camera, heated seats and heated steering wheel, a head up display, adaptive cruise control, and a power tailgate. All versions have smartphone mirroring and plenty of USB ports, while higher trim levels get a wireless phone charging pad and a 10-speaker Bose stereo. Prices for the Mazda CX-60 start at around £46,000 and the mid-spec Homura version I drove cost £52,500. There's plenty of space for driver and passengers, with even tall people able to sit comfortably in the back. The 570-litre boot is capacious as well. The Mazda CX-60 is a superb car for long journeys. I did a three-hour round trip to Gorebridge, on the other side of Edinburgh, to pick up some furniture. At 70mph on the motorway the big Mazda was whisper quiet and DC Thomson's 'the Stooshie' podcast came through crystal clear on the excellent Bose stereo. Driving along some rural Angus backroads I noticed Mazda has beefed up its anti-roll bars. Where the original CX-60 had a tendency to roll and wallow during cornering the updated car remains far more poised and flat even through tighter cornering. The big engine has plenty of grunt, hurling the big Mazda from 0-62mph in just 7.4 seconds. Overall, however, the Mazda CX-60 is a thoroughly likeable car. Its quality, particularly in its cabin, is a cut above what you'll find in an equivalent Ford, Kia, Hyundai, or Skoda. Equipment levels are excellent and the cabin is well laid out and user friendly. It's a good looking car that's practical enough for most families – anyone who needs a seven-seater should check out its big brother the CX-80. Standard four-wheel drive isn't designed for off-roading but gives the Mazda enough grip to deal with the kind of winters you get in rural Angus or Highland Perthshire. And the 3.3 litre engine is one of the most impressive diesel engines on the market, offering a terrific blend of power, refinement and fuel economy.
