‘We are thrilled to bring to the Philippine­s not only the Omoda cars that are bound to address the automotive needs of Filipinos, but also the culture and philosophy that serve as the foundation of the Omoda brand’

Omoda and Jaecoo showed the stylish and new Omoda 5 and Omoda 5 EV off during its Media and Influencer Fashion Night 2024 event at the Revel at the Palace in Bonifacio Global City in Taguig last 28 June.

Omoda and Jaecoo Motor Philippine­s Inc. country director Marco Chen said the latest release from the Chinese brand would attract the Filipino market with its modern look.

“In addition to establishi­ng our presence in the market, our initial showcases in the Philippine­s are a testament to Omoda and Jaecoo’s commitment to constructi­ng a comprehens­ive brand-product-service ecosystem to meet the automotive needs of Filipino consumers,” Chen said.

“We are thrilled to bring to the Philippine­s not only the Omoda cars that are bound to address the automotive needs of Filipinos, but also the culture and philosophy that serve as the foundation of the Omoda brand.”

The Omoda 5 EV, known as “The E-Future Ranger,” offers advanced technology and numerous features.

It has a battery capacity of 61kWh and 430km WLTP or 505km NEDC range.

The vehicle supports DC fast charging, going from 30 percent to 80 percent in just 28 minutes.

As an electric vehicle, it is perfect for those seeking both efficiency and innovation.

An eight-year, 200,000-km warranty will be given to motorists when they purchase the vehicle.

That includes the battery, the electric motor, and the rest of its related architectu­re, giving future owners worry-free ownership.

The Omoda 5 is a stylish vehicle built for the young pioneers, embodying advanced design, futuristic technology, and a new crossover ecosystem.

It sets new industry standards with its innovative features and forward-thinking approach, including a built-in voice command technology.

“More than a showcase of our stylish and futuristic cars, the Omoda: Media and Influencer Fashion Night 2024 is the genesis of the O-universe in the Philippine­s, with our guests representi­ng the Omoders. The event thus is a celebratio­n of the arrival of the O-universe in the country and the emergence of the first Filipino Omoders,” Chen said.

The Omoda 5 is priced at under P1.5 million and will be available in three variants soon while the Omoda 5 EV is priced under P1.9 million.

Omoda will soon have a showroom at Taguig, West Visayas, Iloilo, Central Luzon Pampanga, Clark and interested buyers can stay tuned as details for a test drive will be announced soon.
