I'm in NZ. Looked at the car, it's too small, I can't even get my shoulders in the door.

[@mighty_bunny]

I'm seeing more and more of the Omoda 5 on the road lately! Pretty eager to start seeing some Australian coverage of the electric E5 once it's _finally_ available for us.

[@slowcoy]

I have the Omoda E5 (EV) for 2 months and it's a very good car especially for EV at this price point. The ride is better, the interior is better and ofcourse the power is way better than the GT one.

[@phonesecurity2878]

an underrated channel which deserves millions of view

[@josee.i.3078]

Love your reviews team, so much fun. Arw Chinese cars fine tunning with the safety systems or they are not quite there yet?

[@CarSauce]

They get better and better, but still need some more work… the good news is, they are VERY fast at responding, and typically fix things quickly

[@MageTheoArtemis]

Seriously again, I was just looking at the car to see if it is good or not. You are an angel of cars to me. Delivering the message when I need it

[@CarSauce]

👼

[@THEANIMALGUY]

The same car exists in Iran and they seem to break often

[@marveljeff]

​@@THEANIMALGUYfake review. You literally just haters bruv. If you ask how can I say this? Bc I owned the car bruv.

[@MageTheoArtemis]

@@marveljeff that makes 0 sense

[@MageTheoArtemis]

@@marveljeff and he is right, Chery ain't that reliable

[@Sam-ch3fk]

Hey Daddy Matt, great review! 👍👍👍

[@Sam-ch3fk]

This car is much better than a Rav 4, for instance.

[@SlavStojnic]

BOYSSS! It’s time for a live again lol 😂 Honestly I’m so so proud of you both how awesome Carsauce has become! I’m the OG of fans ( Friend ) of the channel.. and I will always support you boys and Carsauce cause I believe in you guys! Do I need to bring you both free dare ice coffees when you film these amazing reviews lol 😂 Mr Matthew Brand,I’m super proud of you especially thank you for everything you do for us! ( And you Jacob ) I’ll always be loyal 😇

[@letsseeif]

I've got a relative who loves German cars and is prepared to wear Japanese brands as marketed. However, he sees buying Chinese brands as non patriotic. We've had two World War with Germany and one with Japan and none with China although it's known for 'sabre rattling'. Which we reciprocate. I see Chinese brands like so many other products we consume. So Chery is okay with me.

[@CharonTFM]

The irony is Australia was allies with China in the WW’s.

[@barron204]

If you enjoy watching Married at First Sight you will like the Cheery Omoda.

[@CarSauce]

That sounds like one happy Omoda 👉👈

[@lluow]

😂 they hit the right market in Aus then.

[@carlosmartinez399]

I’m from Mexico 🇲🇽 and Chery is starting to operate in the country under the name Chirey because somehow the name Chery is already registered here… anyway, it’s a great car and all, I went to the a dealer to see this suv along with other cars they brought like the Tiggo 7 pro, I test drove them and they feel quite good, BUT, they are having some quality issues like the infotainment system, gearbox and some suspension components, even though they are offering them whit a 10 year, 1 million miles warranty which only covers some of the internal engine parts like pistons, crankshafts and so on. It’s shame because they actually look alright, I hope they fix the troubles they been having

[@zembryoz]

Are you sure it's not wireless Carplay? My 2023 230T has it.

[@petercrawford3370]

I'm seriously considering the AWD GT 1.6T, it's a lot of car.

[@bcychung]

I like the look, quite futuristic, not the 90's look again

[@DEATHSTARER]

I’m surprised that no one has mentioned the narrow 215 spec tyres when looking from both the front and back of the car that IMHO cheapens the Omoda’s looks.A set of 235’s or 245’s would give the Omoda a much more aggressive and planted stance that would match the rest of the car.

[@lueqmanmasduki6028]

Sameee, I thought the design is good, but something is off about it. Seems like it didn't do any leg day

[@brannonwinchester7054]

Owened the FWD two months. Great car

[@MrCybercat5]

Thanks for the video . Looking at getting a new car next year and these look neat!! Son in Law said that parts would near impossible to get in New Zealand does anyone know if that's true?

[@UCMpDwp7VEfKXRH3NyAW7kuj]

good review!! but really, affordable would be more appropriate, this car is quite decent and real bargain.

[@JJ-yg1sf]

Almost All new Chinese cars today provide 7 years warranty with unlimited km, Cheaper price with more feature. What do you expect? Soon China will sell high price car same feature with benz s class

[@JaydenAndrewsTech]

Honestly. I think this is a good car for it's people and unfortunately I'm not one of them. I'd even choose the Beijing over this Omoda. It's bigger and has a better value proposition, in my opinion.

[@mighty_bunny]

Red accents have been scientifically tested to add about 5-6 kilowatts. :)

[@ayushjadhav2712]

bro try TATA HARRIER ALSO

[@theodociocozanitis5437]

Is it true as u open the door it plays the Chinese national anthem lol 😅

[@Cptmarko]

i was going to get the gt but i got the ex instead , its a MY24 demo with 300kms on the clock for 33k with tinted windows i couldn't say no!

[@kobbyagyei989]

bro i just got the GT with mats and everything for 35k.

[@Cptmarko]

@@kobbyagyei989 I didn't have that option unfortunately, the best he could do was 37

[@SishirChandra]

why does it look like a harrier from the front?

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

Why not?

[@electricdiesel1993]

4:25 So-called Omoda GT exhaust sounds like a steam engine whistle but weak as Daewoo Kalos/Holden Barinas; FWD Omoda is so boring but 4WD Omoda is for hoons for drag racing and off the road get covered in mud.

[@ETERNITY777]

🤪🤪 CLEAN YOUR CARPETS 🤪🤪🤪

[@ronhocroft9422]

Very floaty at high speed, dct gear box,,not the best and expensive if anything goes wrong 😢

[@jovanilijevski6873]

Do you like it ore not China SUV a getting better and better

[@mrtonysantos]

You should say Forty thousand Nine Ninety. Our people will think 49,900

[@bellem5]

My main concern would be availability of parts?

[@bubuneowoo6161]

Chery has been the largest exporter for 20 years!

[@CharonTFM]

Chinese manufacturing has ‘over manufacturing’ so not going to be an issue. The Japanese brands are more constrained with their parts

[@ellisrochlin2267]

grill looks like a giant CHEESE grater , its also budget car

[@theodociocozanitis5437]

Looks like a pimps car lol 😅

[@jimmyp1433]

How did you NOT see something that hideous coming ?

[@ludoweet]

Ok, so I'll say it, I don't like this car from a single point of view :)

[@reginald7214]

😂😆

[@notprogamer6462]

😂

[@anotheryoutubeaccount5259]

Of course you don't

[@5150-well]

They should've changed that hideous front grill that looks no better than a cheap flyscreen.

[@josh3221ify]

The look won't age well

[@mrtonysantos]

Wireless charging but only wired connectivity. Stupid and typical of the fake luxury tech of Chinese cars. I wanted to like these cars but there are too many compromises for forty k

[@fairgo4156]

Ugly, small boot, jerky transmission not that cheap. Wow, where do I sign?

[@joydeep23129]

Seeing the thumbnail at first glance, I thought that you might have reviewed Tata Harrier but then after having a close look on it, I realised that it's actually a smaller & pathetic looking Chinese copycat version of Harrier 😂

[@lentor-pb6yn]

I sincerely request you to search for the ‘Baojun 510’ a Chinese car born in 2016.And then, please evaluate whether the ‘Tata Harrier’ this advanced and prestigious car, is indeed a Indian pathetic copycat version of it.😊

[@breeana2879]

Would pick my Mazda cx30 over this 🇨🇳 💩 any day of the week

[@zhanhonglu903]

i think the chance of living out of stupidity for u is slim. time is not on ur side.

[@aus-reviews8462]

the look of the car will age horribly, none of these chinese cars should be over 15 grand

[@dreamernawid]

This might be one of the ugliest cars on Australian roads currently.

[@CarSauce]

It’s a 50/50 whether people like the looks I find!

[@campbellreither550]

It looks terrible 😢

[@fattyriceguy]

Heck...no!

[@twisted_panties]

Great review, hideous car.

[@CarSauce]

We’ll take the W here 🫡
