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. Omoda-badged vehicles will have sleeker, crossover-style styling, while Jaecoo-badged models have more traditional SUV styling. Here's an explainer. 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.

Omoda 9 SHS review — a cavernous hybrid SUV with a whopping range
Alan Partridge, you may recall, referred to his blue Lexus IS300 as 'the Japanese Mercedes'. In the Omoda 9 SHS we have the Chinese Mercedes. Who or what is Omoda? So saturated have we become with new Chinese car brands washing upon Britannia's shores, it's difficult to keep up. There's MG, BYD, GWM and its sub-brand Ora, Aiways, Maxus, Xpeng, Leapmotor, Skywell and now Jaecoo and its fancier sister Omoda. Both brands are owned by Chery, China's fourth largest car builder, which is also launching its eponymous mothership brand in the UK later this year. So will Nio, HiPhi, Avatr, Zeekr and Geely, all before the Christmas lights go up. Hongqi is set to follow in 2026. The Chinese build cheap, reliable, efficient cars with impressive technology. The new world order of cars has seen these guys sweep in and undercut the competition thanks to cheap labour and their direct access to the raw materials that make batteries. China sells 60 per cent of the world's EVs and 80 per cent of the batteries that power them. Here in Britain there are 73 dealers for the Chery brands Jaecoo and Omoda alone, and that figure is expected to rise to 130 before the end of this year. This is startling growth. The appeal of the Omoda 9 SHS (which stands for Super Hybrid System) is clear: a cavernous hybrid SUV that is well appointed and has legroom that'll embarrass a Mercedes GLE. And just savour the price. The Alabama-built Mercedes GLE 400 e 4MATIC Urban Edition, offering a combined 408bhp, costs £80,490. The Wuhu-built Omoda 9 is more powerful, with a combined 443bhp. It's faster to 62mph: 4.9 seconds versus the Merc's 6.1. And it costs just £44,990. To cap it all, the Omoda 9 offers only one extra: paint. White is free, black or grey is £750 and satin grey is £1,000. There are no other extras because everything is included as standard. All the safety tech, self-parking function, 20in alloy wheels, 14-speaker Sony audio, a huge panoramic powered sunroof — you name it, it's got it. As for styling, it's no uglier than anything else in its class. Squint your eyes and it could even pass for a modern Mercedes. The Omoda 9 boasts three headline figures that are seriously noteworthy. First, the price means you're paying just £100 per horsepower, a figure no other SUV gets near. The second is the Omoda's stated 700-mile overall range. On a lengthy drive I actually managed to extract 760 miles before I had to pull into a petrol station. If you set off from John O'Groats, you wouldn't quite get to Land's End on a single tank, but you'd get to Plymouth. The third headline figure is its 34.48kWh battery, meaning this hybrid has more electric power than the all-electric Renault Zoe. With a claimed pure electric range of 93 miles, it's the longest-range PHEV on sale. You could easily do most daily commutes with this car and never have to pay for petrol — a huge plus point. The battery feeds a pair of electric motors, while the other half of the powertrain is made up of a 1.5-litre four-cylinder engine that's good for 154bhp and 159lb ft on its own. • Read more expert reviews, news and insights on cars and motoring Dynamically it's less involving than the Mercedes GLE and Range Rover Velar, but its handling is sharp and the power delivery is unruffled. Put it in sport mode and it tugs at the leash. It won't reward like a Porsche up the Stelvio Pass, but no one's going to buy it with that in mind. This is a car for getting from A to B cheaply, comfortably and reliably, and on that score it delivers better, probably, than any car under £60,000. It's arguably better value than a Range Rover or Mercedes, even if it lacks their heritage and verve. On the other hand, if you can spend more and wish to support the workers in Solihull or Tuscaloosa, please do so. Chinese imports provide more bang for your buck, but potentially at the expense of western car industries.

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.

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.
