How close is Jaecoo's Omoda C9 (Exceed RX) to a premium SUV? (Indepth Walkaround Review)

[@lamchuanzheng]

Good job girl, good cinematographic skills. Keep up the good work =)

[@llama8496]

It's nice seeing your daughter is helping with your car review. Hope to see both of you in front of the camera in the future, like Richard Hammond and her daughter.

[@aynstyn065]

I like your way of presenting a car review versus others. They always mention 0 to hundred, how much power, etc... What matters to a daily driver most, are found here.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Glad you like it, it's more important to review cars in a way that's helpful to the average user.

[@reefgalaxy986]

I did a test drive last week, I liked it. It would never be like Lexus RX SUV. But I really can't complain much at this price point.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Yes, totally agree. For that price (starts at cheaper than Mazda 3) what can one complain?

[@reefgalaxy986]

@@BobbyAngmalaysia I am currently looking for a decent SUV that is cost effective. I didn't like the interior and exterior of jaecoo 7. I thought Omoha c9 was way nicer, but i agreed with you there was not enough room at the trunk. Omoha c9 is an urban car. I did enjoy driving it around though. Maybe you have better recommendation for me before I really pull the trigger on this Omoha c9.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

@reefgalaxy986 i totally think for the price of the car, this is an absolute bargain for the kind of refinement and interior appointment. it feels like a rm400k car

[@reefgalaxy986]

@@BobbyAngmalaysia I called the sales rep and placed my order on a white Omoda c9 lol

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Congrats

[@Aeronronn]

You got me at the ending..yes im a potential buyer of this car hahaha brilliant review as always.

[@lokekaryew8408]

Bobby, I love your summary in the last minute of the video! Indeed, your comprehensive review is a must watch for the potential buyers

[@sandisongwenya4667]

Great review! I think the Malaysian tuning for the car may be different from the South African tuming because I have thoroughly tested the germans you mentioned (i.e X3, Q5) and the drive is very similar, especially the suspension when its set on mid. The 3 different settings for the suspension also make the car feel very different. Those Germans, yes they drive better but not R400k or R600k better. I agree with everything else you said though

[@sengthee]

@47'12" I believe this comes with Aisin 8 speed and not DCT.

[@thomaswong7233]

Yeah, u are right, how come Bobby mention DCT ya? Got 2 version?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Means it's the same as the Peugeot that still has DCT characteristics even though they're supposed to be torque converters ... Interesting

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Cos it jerks like one same goes the 408GT, torque converter but jerks like DCT, both Aisin 8 Speed ​@@thomaswong7233

Yup correct I’m booking this car when launching one Utama

[@xiper86]

kesian the little girl got to hold camera under the rain, but nonetheless very good job little girl! I own a Harrier turbo and I am very impressed with this Omoda C9, might consider one maybe later when we have more on the road to understand on their reliability.

[@esk4105]

Time will come. Jaecoo reliability is now improving though than before

[@rendezvous4577]

@xiper86 share ur experience on the harrier turbo please.

[@xiper86]

@@rendezvous4577 comfortable, reliable, good NVH and pretty powerful. Not good at cornering due to the soft suspension setup. Pretty much what one would expect from a Harrier....

[@stupidmirul]

Bobby is preparing his kids to be future Car Reviewer... I like!

[@jimmy3567]

Bobby pity your little because was raining and she was doing the job perfectly and responsibility. Must give a thumb to your little girl.👍👍

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

She wanted to follow me and said she'll hold the camera, so I let her be and didn't instruct her on anything :) thanks for your message I'll let her know to encourage her more haha

[@RayFliesAway]

18:29, wouldn't it be easier using yoke steering wheel?

[@orbscura]

there is a shortcut button on the steering which can be set to activate the camera

[@harzritz438]

Bobby give the cameraman a raise,tell her shes doing a really good job there

[@kamilzar8638]

are the high beam lights adaptive, similar to those in VW or Skoda?

[@iamqadri]

They WILL know Bobby. They have high definition imaging scanners, especially for vehicles.

[@aminulsyahmi7094]

Hi bobby, what was your avg fuel consumption on daily city drive?

[@CaptainChristianZ1818]

Im surprise when you mentioned engine noise and tire noise but not wind noise. Perhaps sound deadening can be installed on wheel wells and engine bonnet or change tires.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Sometimes when wind noise is too suppressed engine noise is more noticeable. It only comes in when accelerate. When driving smoothly it doesnt

[@CaptainChristianZ1818]

@@BobbyAngmalaysia I see, NVH must be pretty good i presume? I'll be arranging a test drive myself too when I get back to Malaysia.

[@darrenting]

Hi Bobby, in your opinion between Omoda C9 or BYD Sealion 7 which one would you choose?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

I haven't driven the Sealion as yet. But that's an EV right? And based on track record, BYD's suspension pliancy and handling is top notch. Styling wise I already prefer the Omodo C9 both exterior and interior.

[@lhctrekker]

at similar price point ,Sealion is what you pay , c9 is the tax you pay

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

@@darrenting i do prefer the design of the C9

[@NIRUMAL93]

Hi bobby , i currently own a 2022 Mazda Cx5 2.5 and im planning to trade in for a omoda c9……but to me the cx5 handles very well for a suv and its nice for a spirited driving …is the omoda c9 handling similar to a cx5 or better?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

@@NIRUMAL93 In terms of feel, the Omodo C9 is very similar to CX9. Hefty, heavy, planted, huge. The CX5 is more agile, just like the J7 is more agile. But in terms of interior, specs etc, it certainly feels like an upgrade from CX5. Even the J7 feels like an upgrade. But suspension, drivetrain pairing of engine and gearbox, very few cars beat Mazdas

[@lawrencelau99]

Hi Bobby Can u review Haval H6?

[@maxleong91]

the beginning, i was like what's VOOWO? 😂

[@hdbsg3.5]

2 year old XC60 T8 or this C9?

[@seanyeo4857]

The cutest cameraman ever...

[@loiyawyuen4087]

I think it’s not a dual clutch transmission, but an Aisin 8 speed automatic transmission.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Yeah man this is the second car equipped with Aisin 8 speed TC but behaviour like DCT in certain situations. I cannot assume shifting smoothness to tell what gearbox it's equipped with already. Thanks for pointing out

[@DanielsJournal85]

I love both cars to as I test drive both and I live the J7 looks more rugged and drive feel.

[@Lesterzen]

what i wanna know, is it actually off road capable like what they advertise???

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

I don't think it can deal serious off-road. But if you mod AT tyres would've been a huge improvement. Clearance wise ... If you mod ... Hahaha very few urban SUV can do serious off-road with stock cars, not even Cayenne

[@danialfpv]

She's a princess. Allowance raise 🤭😄

[@umarafridi2912]

Honest reviews.. i cancel my planing to buy c9 ....

[@yuvaneshprabakaran4593]

Suspension wise, daily driving, how does it feel Bobby?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

The whole car feels like those rm400k SUV, but driving wise cannot compete in terms of suspension, engine pairing etc. so you treat it as the money you spent is on the design, sound proofing (engine loud tho) and interior touch points etc. not for the drive, a bit like modern Mercedes Benz where engine pairing with transmission and suspension tuning is weak compared to BMW Audi

[@leonon777]

@@BobbyAngmalaysia My exact sentiment when I test drove it. I surprisingly enjoyed driving the J7 more, the engine sound somehow not so loud/rough, not sure if the C9 test car I drove had issues but even the J7 engine had less vibration when idle.

[@piotrklups5625]

Is the car quiet inside as you drive 100 / 120 kph?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

@@piotrklups5625 very quiet, but when you step on the throttle the engine sound is louder than the overa feel of the car suggests

[@tonghk1]

Would you recommend the AWD or 2WD given the RM20k price difference?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

im not sure if the 20k difference is only for 2WD to AWD, if it includes the other luxurious specs and features then i think its worth it

[@jamie-u3x]

The steering that moves together with digital clusters is already adopted by Zeekr in their lineup.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

I think what I said was the LCD screen display dynamically change the layout of information based on the steering angle adjustments and seat height adjustments

[@edmundleong4558]

Hi, Bobby. How is C9 fuel consumption

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Not great, no pure ICE Chinese cars are good in this because all the best patents owned by German and Japanese car makers

Feels much much more luxurious, both had jerky transmission pairing, but the 408GT suspension and handling far far far more accomplished than this

its like comparing Rolex vs Fake Rolex aka lolex.

triggered already lol

[@companymann]

Lol true

[@ViCKyN94]

It’s like when people talk bout Seiko comparing to Omega and Rolex. Was it a fake rolex even both had a lot of similarities in their high end watches? No. They just had a different target audience. And see where is Seiko now after all the years, how many quality products is out there using seiko parts. Brand isnt everything, and it definitely doesn’t equate to value. Brands now focus too much on exclusivity than quality. Therefore jaecoo, it’s not a rip off, it’s their own take of high-end luxury feel, may share some parts from other brand but doesn’t mean they are a rip off, just because the brand came from China. It is too early to say much bout the lifespan on this specific model, but build quality wise is definitely mind blowing.

I beg U can't even one c9 .... 😢😢😢😢
