“I think the natural competitors are the [BYD] Atto 3 and the MG 4, so we’ll obviously be looking to how do we make sure that we’re competitive to get on the shopping list with customers,” Chery Australia managing director Lucas Harris told CarExpert earlier this year.

Chery has also previously said it’s working to get vehicle-to-load (V2L) technology for the Omoda E5 in Australia, which would give it a fairly unique selling point given this capability isn’t universal among EVs.

The Omoda E5 will launch, however, with one feature that’s very rare among EVs: a full-sized spare wheel.

It can be charged from 30 to 80 per cent in under 30 minutes using a DC fast charger.

DimensionsServicing and Warranty

The Chery Omoda E5 is backed by a seven-year, unlimited-kilometre vehicle warranty, with its battery covered by an eight-year, unlimited-kilometre warranty.

Chery will also offer seven years of roadside assistance and seven years of capped-price servicing. Service pricing has yet to be detailed.

Safety

Euro NCAP and NCAP have yet to test the Omoda E5, though the petrol-powered version received a five-star rating from both safety authorities.

Chery says the Omoda E5 has “18 kinds of intelligent driving assist functions”, and has specified it will have the following:

Adaptive cruise controlAutonomous emergency brakingLane-keep assist

Using the petrol-powered Omoda 5 as a guide, it appears features like ******-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic assist will also be standard.

All Omoda E5 models will come with front, front-side, front-centre and curtain airbags.

The EX also includes a surround-view camera.

Standard Equipment

There are two Omoda E5 trim levels available.
