What a breath of fresh air! An EV without gimmicky flush door handles! I'd go with Chery for sure! The infotainment screen looks cleaner than ugly BYD stuck on rectangle in the middle as well.

[jansenwilder]

The E5 interior is nicely built..better than Atto3 ..go check it out .

[dzonikg]

E5 is already sold in Serbia, yesterday on Serbian TV (there is also on Youtube ) was test between Omoda E5 vs Omoda Gas version, on race track E5 won, also won in brake test with big margin which is kind off surprising considering is heavier

[simonmurphy]

Test driving the Omeda next week being offered on some good deals in the UK

[yulusleonard]

One thing i notice good thing about Omoda 5 is it has spare tire
negative thing? It a multi platform, has ICE/Hybrid version so it has its own drawbacks including what they did with battery, not that different than Citroen but how BYD do theirs are way superior.

[Sepolden]

@electricviking….you do a great and thorough job on EV updates…one thing though…with Canadian/US tariffs and to a lesser extent EU tariffs most of the EV’s in China will never make it to our shores.
Added to that, shrinking sales even in China mean that the majority of these companies won’t make it.
It seems lots of good info coming but relevance starting to lack more & more. Just a thought.

[thehobe]

It seems the channel has transformed itself into a China centric EV information source; I guess it makes sense for an Australian website. I really enjoy the updates on the battery technology even if they do come mostly from China.

[John-pig]

Love the EV competition in Australia. Hopefully the price curve will gradually decrease as well.

[Anyarora]

I have one! After long time consideration to convert to EV from a Merc. Loving it so far. Have compared to BYD and MG4EV. So far Omoda E5 has the best value and experience for the price.

The height also very ideal for Indonesian road. I was thinking of Seal but stuck with Omoda as I didnt want to have same worry as I had with Merc sedan.

Fast charging when you can otherwise charge at home is not that important - charge off peak over night, or limit it to what your solar can output during the day. In the 12 years of driving electric, I've only needed to charge external to my home 2 times. The fast charging is nice, but if I had the choice, I'd much rather the ability to charge at 22kw AC on 3 phase; I'd use this every day. That would be far more useful.

[MrGMawson]

Chery Omoda E5 seems to be bloody good

[zizimai]

The rear passengers have more foot space under the front seat. That makes sitting at the rear of the E5 more comfortable than Atto 3.

[RichardHilditch]

I, too, do not understand why people want larger wheels on BEVs. The manufacturers persist in putting them on cars, reducing the range and often the comfort. I think the other motoring journalists must take the blame. They always talk about large wheels looking good. I think thin tires look ugly myself.

[davidallen]

Hey Viking, love your videos. Can I ask that when you review new EVs for Australia that you detail the local support that is set up to serve owners of new models here. I ready to be impressed by increased range or faster charging, or lower prices but most buyers need to know that the importer has a solid support presence in Aus too.

[firstlast-ptpp]

@6:20 - that's why you get 8 year and unlimited km warranty for the battery

[eclecticcyclist]

Although they both use a blade cells that does not mean necesarily that it's the same battery pack which comprises cells, cooling system and bms. JLR have been working with Chery on electric Range Rovers.

Thanks for all your excellent videos, Sam. Please let us know if the reviewed EV has a glass roof. I will not buy a car with a glass roof. It is nuts to have a glass roof in Australia. I had a Landrover Discovery in the late 90's. It had a lot of small windows on the roof. I had to insulate them all to keep the vehicle cool in our summer in SA.

[fritzbraun]

Hello Sam, thank you for your reporting.
I have a question, what about rental cars? In America, the rental car companies have decided electric car rentals don’t seem to be popular, and they’re getting rid of their EV’s.
I own an EV, but would never take it on a road trip. We rent ice cars If we have to drive any distance. Is it similar in other parts of the world?

[PapaPiggie]

I wonder how many stateside viewers are not watching like they did? Sam is doing a great job but all the new best cars we can’t buy in the states. Our EVs suck wind here in the states. A few are ok but most won’t work for me

byd is super hit, omoda and deepal are hit here in nepal where market share 70%
