#chery #omoda5 #review - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
There is no other car review channel that tells you so clearly and with such clarity and time to watch only the parts you need without wasting other people's time.❤❤❤
You should also check out ReDriven
Chasing Cars seems ok
Only I love him
in Russia here, the Chery had led the whole market when the all VAG and other European brands had leave our country. The Exeed, Chery and OMODA and also HAVAL are eveywhere!!
And generally the most customers really love these cars cause they're chepaer than European and offer much more!
So, The Omoda is a good choice if you wanna spend reasonable amount of money with good feedback!
And if you worry about safety just check in youtube EuroNCAP test of Omoda
Best regards all
i was in iran recently a country like yours with sanctions and its the same, chinese cars are everywhere, same probably in north korea
@@user-sb4ml3ww4d Lada are very cool, especially that little 2 door 4 wheel drive
@@user-sb4ml3ww4d, you are right - your country is worse than North Korea and Iran, your country started this stupid war in Ukraine and most of you believe in your Putin's stupid lies and excuses as a valid reason to continue this shit. So be happy with your Lada and UAZ for the rest of your life.
@@djizzah , I had such model, I never knew it was cool...It was really nothing but problem car, a kind of damn punishment.
Lada niva was a fun little 4wd, when it was sold here in OZ in the 90's.
I think they're all long gone , since I've never spotted one on the road since 😢
I really appreciate carexpert’s reviews because they have so many standardised tests (unlike the majority of other car reviewers) which makes comparisons between cars so much easier. Many other channels at best, provide vague statements that are usually highly opinionated and depend on the journalist reviewing the car, so I also really appreciate that CarExpert sticks to one on camera journalist.
Good work CarExpert!
Thank you!
@@CarExpertAus Paul is hands down the best car reviewer/journo. In my opinion Paul carried the caradvice team back when it was a thing before Murdoch group bought it out.
@@CarExpertAus yep your killing it Paul, gee that car was screaming ,mercy
Didn't forget the enthusiasm, sometimes hilariously funny. Where some others is right down boring to the piont you just want to skip most. Great job Paul.
Do you have this Omoda on Diesel engine
Of all the car reviewers on TH-cam, Paul's are the most informative.
Amazing Review! You guys have really perfected this craft of reviewing cars and really made it your own. I enjoy all of the segments regarding the car reviews lately and I must say I a quite a fan of the spirited driving with standard cars, really helps to get a feel of how the cars will perform in real world driving conditions.
I mean you guys are really putting it out there!, Decibel Meter, Durometer, Racing equipment. All of these things really make a difference!
Appreciate all of the effort and hope to see more reviews like this in the future.
Just test-drove this today in Cairns, and we loved it:
+ amazing value for money
+ has a bucket load of amazing tech
+ interior trim all had a premium feel
+ it handled perfectly for my use
+ super comfy... I think it has sold me.
Perhaps lacks a little in boot size, but I think I can live with that.
It was super quiet on a 100km stretch, voice-activated windows LOL! Drove the Toyota Cross Hybrid (was not at all impressed with the Toyota) and a Kia Seltos (nice, but a lot more pricy), so they are now deleted from my shortlist... well done Chery you bumped off a few bigger name brands! Oh, and it is available up here in the far north instead of a 6-12 month minimum wait.
Great car! Props to the Chinese for pushing the industry forward while the Japanese are trying to drag it back
The world is changing. China is the future.
Let's see if it can keep up in a few years ahead. Chinese cars are worth nothing after the guarantee has expired
Just bought the silver with red trim Chery myself … added in front and rear cameras and Lifetime warranty duco protection. Totally love the dash and interior lighting at night! Absolutely great features and value for money!
How's the driving experience? Does it feel bouncy on undulated roads?
@@DaveYeo it’s pretty good. 😊 Emergency lane warning can’t be turned off so that can be a bit frustrating when avoiding debris on the road. Turning circle not super tight like my previous Kia Sportage, but overall it’s comfy … only done 700km so still early days.
They should allow drivers to have that option to switch it off .....that's annoying...but as long as it's not dangerous...I can't wait to test drive it. Am driving a Kia Cerato now
@@DaveYeo hi Dave, sorry should have been more specific, you can turn it off but must remember to do that every time you start the vehicle. It’s not at all dangerous … just annoying at times because road conditions can change and the system doesn’t recognise debris; bicyclists; cars parked on side of road requiring wider berth etc … it’s definitely manageable 😊 cheers Sue
Hello there, can you please share your experience with this car so far? I am considering to get this car but some people didn’t recommend me to get a Chinese car like this one. Thanks
Love how it looks looking forward to getting a test drive done.
Great job Paul, love your knowledge, production quality and endless enthusiasm in all your reports. Keep up the good work, cheers!
Chery Omoda 5 also received a positive response here in Indonesia, great value for money.
You are from oil country,10.1L is too high for a car of this size.
I first saw this car parked today, remembered the model, came here for the review and am going to the dealership tommorrow.
Thank you Paul 💕💕💕💕💕💕
I've never seen a reverse speed test before. Nice one.
love how fast it goes in reverse
Thanks! This was very helpful and real with no bullshit. Really appreciate this video. It’s helping me really decide which car to choose.
I am so getting this SUV for myself... im at Chery tomorrow! Hell yes this is my type of ride
Just bought mine! Black colour EX! Drives like a dream! Absolutely amazing value for money!!! Exterior, interior, performance ...everything is fantastic!!
How's your car FC?
Thanks for fair review Paul. We have purchased a midnight blue EX without all the red bling and were sold on price, features and warranty. All the issues others seem to have with this vehicle can be sorted with a quick software update. Also handling and brakes could no doubt be improved over time easily with shocks and pads, normal cheap service items. For me it's reliability of mechanicals and ongoing service costs which are fixed to under $300 a year and seven year warranty.
It's certainly a car of interest with the price , are U happy with it 😊
@Brett M ... how have you found the vehicles performance 2 months on from your review comment? Did you change / upgrade suspension and brake pads? Any other comments in review now after further driving? Who performed the software update and was it costly? What did the software update rectify exactly and was there a noticeable beneficial improvement? Thanks
Hey mate, 2 months on what do you feel. I want to buy this as a 2nd car/grocery car. What would you say?
@@com1629 Well have money but am not throwing it away. We need a safe second car that's all.
how much was the approx onroad cost please all together ?
Love your work Paul! Great review as always! I'm wondering if you'd consider testing how well cars utilise their adaptive/radar cruise control? Just before doing the autonomous steering test, you can follow another car and test that your car speeds up, slows down and stops with the leading car and maintains a consistent/reasonable gap
Such a detailed review. Appreciate it so much!
A proper attempt at systematic and scientific car reviewing leaves most of the other qualitative opinionated motoring journalism from long-established publications looking like juvenile clickbait.
Full credit to putting lane keep assist to the test on 4 lanes, its this type of proper repeatable and standardized testing that people are looking for. The real roeld driving test data and proper presentation of noise level data is especially to be commended.
As for the Chery omoda5 itself, with a $10K price differential from most other Japanese and Korean competitors, (and actual cars available in stock without multi-year waiting lists) the only thing to consider is longevity and availability of parts.
just bought 1, All black edition. Thanks for the review.
Really great video! Objective and honest review. I'm convinced
Great endeavour Paul, just like all time 👍 Appreciation from Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Thanks Paul
You are the best, I enjoy your job. All the best for you my friend
rev part was hilarious !! jst seen this car in parkmore today was looking great , bt not sure abt electronics or part issues ! would love to wait anyone had this for a while without much dramas
This just made the MG HS expensive in comparison and that's a very hard thing to do. Wow. As long as you don't want a car for spirited driving and just want a sort of family car or even a long distance cruiser, this is unbelievable value. Are you sure this is 30k+ on roads (so around 33) for this top spec model? What on Earth? 360 cam, front and rear sensors, heated seats and wheel, the full active safety tech, SUNROOF, electric seats for both driver and passenger, electric tailgate, 8 speaker stereo, digital cockpit, wireless charging, wireless carplay - it seems to go on forever. This is OUTSTANDING value and I wish them the best. Imagine if they fix the little niggles too in future and make the suspension better, it will be like the no brainer of the century.
I am curious to see what AWD and more powerful models they bring later on. Well done Cherry!
It’s more of a ZS competitor than HS
@@MRDARKTURKEY Nope, it's a q3/HS competitor in interior size and overall length. Sorry. And if against the ZS that makes the ZS look REALY bad as the ZS barely gets any of those features. It even has the same 115kw as the FWD HS and almost the same torque.
@@teddym2808 I’m talking about size, not power
@@MRDARKTURKEY I am literally talking about size and clearly said that.
It's 4400mm which puts it in the next size gap up from compact and INTERIOR room is as much as HS. Do you watch reviews? It's clear this is what they are aiming it at. Anyway it's 35.5 driveaway, I checked it out, and my HS AWD was 37 with a few less features and I'd still prefer my HS in this case with awd and 168KW/360nm. Against the front wheel drive lower power HS I would get this no question. I would choose this over the HS essence.
And now I also know why MG has added so much to the HS for the 2023 model that's coming. Front sensors, bose stereo and much more.. they know they have to compete now whereas before they were the cheapest.
We just brought a Black Omeda 5 BX Model, picking it up on Friday 😊 thanks for the review
Nice review Paul! Please review also the Jetour Dashing. Thanks. More power to your channel!
Awesome review Paul! Would be awesome to see the headlight performance for night driving
Bought one on Saturday in Titan Green for the wife, She adores it all up $29,500 on plate run out.
Definitely one the better reviewers out there for sure. Testing the same way for each car regardless is the only way to compare like for like. Too many (Aussie) reviews are clouded with personal opinion over facts, so thanks for not going that route. Only think I can’t get my head around is the reverse speed test…pointless other than for trying to get that last carpark at the supermarket. Your audience might appreciate it more if it ends i a J turn as a finale…then mum really will get that last supermarket carpark 😜
Thank you. Very nice car, thumbs up
Thank God you did a review on this car, Paul. I'm taking an EX variation (I prefer the look of it in white with the red accents) for a test drive here in Sydney later in the week and the only review I found here on YT was a big Russian guy who pretty much trashed talked the car mainly on account of him being too fat to fit comfortably inside it. 😂
Hohoho
Please be careful when test driving it, in Performance Drive’s video about this car, they demonstrated the dangerous active safety systems, so I’d watch their video, and be extra cautious when driving it to make sure you don’t encounter what they did. Heck, I’d honestly reconsider test driving it at all in my opinion
@@HughRussell06 what's so bad about test driving it? You are not obligated to buy,
We have Cherys everywhere in my country, and I can assure you they are absolutely amazing cars. Tons of features at a fraction the price of pretty much every competitor. And they're very reliable
😂😅
Awesome review. So informative and comprehensive. We will ve buying the silver
Not sure about the reliability BUT THEY DID A GREAT JOB WITH THE LOOKS!
Sorry, what did you say? I am currently standing in pool of my own vomit and am struggling to read. It looks like a Havel and a Hyundai Staria had a baby. That's not a good thing.
@@Rally4Life1982 lol you are a mean bastard, I like what you said.
Kudos to the producer and team.
He has viewer who still go through the video and read the comments while standing in their own pool of vomit.
All modern cars look crap
with the pricetag, by the time warranty expires, you'd trade it in for something else
thank you for the harsh test, it provided me some details whether or not to get this car. appreciated mate. if you can also include some cornering test to show its stability that would be even better. as you don't want to drive a mid range suv like riding a pajero on curves.
Good review Paul. In fact, I find your reviews the most informative as you cover 99% of the vehicle's attributes that the average new car buyer would be most interested in. Weirdly thou, this was the fourth Aussie road test I watched today, but found the other presenters, heavily critical of the lane departure warning system and in one such review, said it verged on being dangerous to drive! Did you not experience this feature?
Ahahah I saw that one too. Carsguides, I saw that one this morning, but it only wanted me to buy it for myself. I've been watching for this car for MONTHS, and now I want it even more. The idea of an intrusive lane assist sounds amazing to me. I love knowing my car is intelligent😂
the drive guy said firm ride
I have a CHERY and I glad with purchase. Very good car.
I saw one today. It really has a very good looking!
Don’t know about the Car Cherry how far it’ll travel with its owners satisfaction but the reviewer has come a long way and will not need any boosters to touch the next sky.
Great commendable performance by the presenter.
This is a really good car. They are selling super well in south east asia. They give so much for such an affordable price tag.
wow that car is something to look at
Another excellent review Paul. Thank you for the horn test. The car looks great, just need a bit more punch.
best review i ever seen so much info details,tq good job '
I agree with your concluding remarks. Thanks for making this video Matt and Jacob.
35k................ This Interior just killed Toyota Corolla.
It's chinese though, don't know if I would ever trust chinese brands for my safety on the road
@@marshallmarthesVolvo is also kinda Chinese lol. Ntm this Omoda 5 actually has Euro NCAP 5 stars rating in safety. If that isn't a credible credential, what else could be?
@@marshallmarthes it has 5 star safety rating
@@sound4life805 wasn’t there issues with safety on this car? I saw an article on CarSales but don’t remember the exact details
But we still don't know what material the seats are .
Great review
Nice test
Idk what it is with me, but I insta rly fall in love with any car that is made in China. I adore Haval, MG, Chery, and LDV. No matter the car, I just love it. And I meant what ever. I used to want a Haval Jolion. Then I wanted an LDV Deliver 9. Then Tank 300. It doesn't matter to me. China has just come so far so quickly in the automotive industry that it's just blown my mind, to the point that no other country can produce a car I just fall in love with, except Fiats 500. I love that car and it's circular headrests
I think that you need an asprin and a good liedown
I agree with you and the price doesn't make it any better! It's becoming really hard to look away from the Chinese products especially considering the high quality, looks and feel of these cars.
i will say, i own 4 Deliver 9s and they’ve all been shit
@@jackcalow2430 That's actually surprising because my grandfather traded in his transit and bought the deliver 9 and he's had no trouble. It's been amazing. What went wrong for you?
@@jackcalow2430then why you buy them? because you can not afford a Ford Transit?
So in my experience if your car radio is on and you plug in your phone the radio does stop as it goes to apple car play automatically. Just press the cars audio/radio button and select your station then press the apple car play icon and you can listen to the radio and use apple car play
Yeah my car does that, I thought that was normal
Walked past the dealer the other day. Didn’t know what it was till I took a closer look. Didn’t half mind it. If it’s Hal’s as good our Haval I’ll take it.
I like the design
Great review. For the price I think it's pretty good
Hey Paul I am a huge fan of your comprehensive test but please add turning circle.
Great review! When you use voice commander, I am thinking of Knight Rider.
This is a first for someone from Canada. Never seen this before.
When we spend 35k aud to buy a toyota yaris.
But Chinese can spend 160k rmb(35k aud) to get a AUDI A3 or even merce A180.
I probably won't buy MIC cars, but I definitely supports them, as all japanese and german car brand are way toooo overpriced after covid. Australian car market needs a challenger to bring the prices down.
Thank God you did a review on this car, Paul. I'm taking an EX variation (I prefer the look of it in white with the red accents) for a test drive here in Sydney later in the week and the only review I found here on YT was a big Russian guy who pretty much trashed talked the car mainly on account of him being too fat to fit comfortably inside it.
Hi Paul, was loving everything until you went over bumpy road. I wondered if you have car in sports mode does that change the suspension so you won’t bounce up and down like you did? Car seems to have a hell of a lot of features for the price! PS; love all your honest reviews. I love my music and notice nobody seems to turn on any music so we can hear how it sounds. Do you think you could add that to your reviews?
Once the car is in sports mode, the suspension will stiffen right up That’s why he was bouncing. Put it back into normal mode and big difference
Interior and exterior look great ....very stylish
just been to Chery today and had a try, definitely getting one soon, the interior, waiting times and pricing just kill japanese cars. Even the BYD are great as well😊
i know you guys do lots of various tests, was wondering if an avoidance test e.g. a "moose test" (as they say overseas) could be added in the future?
We don’t have moose in Australia mate! We’d need a roo test and we’d hit it
Wombat test maybe , because they're solid as a full keg of beer.
So Mr Carexpert you have never reviewed MB G63? So sad your reviews are the best
Love from Sweden
The Tiggo Pro range has been making waves in SA and not without reason, but I think the Eclipise Cross may still… ehh… be eclipsing the Omoda
Omoda is a company operating 33 stores here in The Netherlands selling shoes and clothing 🙂
Hello clog man
You cracked me up 😂
May be an acquired taste for some, i think its gorgeously different
In South Africa and China, OMODA is Chery's "premium'' brand. All Chery's come with a 10 yr warranty or 1 000 000 km when bought new.
The one 10 years Warranty applied only for the first buyer
@@mmathetimphex7235 can you please go read my comment once again.
Chery is not “premium” stop lying. Chinese bots are all over these comments.
@@rogerigez21 lol 😆
It shows when it's a solid or unbroken line. That's pretty interesting.
Thanx so so much for this intro!! I test drove one today.. I found that the sunroof made ( wind whistle) noise while driving with it open & the seatbelt was digging into my hip.. drivers side. What's your thoughts? Thanks 😇🙏
A very handsome car, I must say, like those broad grills, makes it look very aggressive. The back reminds me of a Lexus or a Harrier. I would say they have done a pretty good job considering most of the drivers will be looking at a family car and with the soft ride, it sits well with families...my personal opinion. Anyway, I'm definitely gonna test drive this when it comes to Malaysia. Thx for the review, Paul, clear and packed with info.
Oh, forgot to mention that they are giving us a 10-years warranty on the engine here in Malaysia, we have yet to get a chance to test drive it as latest news is that it will be officially launched in July.
And you can switch to manual gear mode by long pressing the side button on the gear shifter, it will switch to + and - for your manual gears, so no pedal shifters needed here.
And to do a reverse at 70kmh, wow, that's fast, won't be doing that for sure.
Chery Omanda had achieved 5 star Ancap 3 weeks ago. that sounds music to ears
Seems well made
Does anyone know how to permanently turn off the driver monitoring system, it’s agony!! Need help ASAP
very interesting Design.
Great work Paul !
Chery, ditch the CVT and it becomes a good car.
Excellent review. It’s going to find many homes in Australia.
Do you have any info on what the small screen above the steering wheel on the column is? Thanks Paul 😊 great review as always.
China spying on you
Driver Fatigue Distraction Monitoring Sensors
I like it ❤
Thanks for the review.I am strongly considering purchasing one but the only thing holding me back is unknown service issues and parts availability. With Chery being new to the Australian market, how soon will they be able to fix and get it back on the road should something unforeseen happen? Keen to hear your thoughts. Also, is the suspension as bad as what the other reviewers are making it to be?
Could you also measure the paint thickness in future reviews?
I guess thats why manufacturers use piano black alot to make the interior look expensive and if they dont use piano black then people will say it looks cheap
Agreed it's either Piano Black otherwise it's considered cheap 😂
It uses a lot of fuel ⛽️ for its size and weight.
That button on the auto selector is tricky if you press it accidentally it switches to manual mode.
❤the best car in price 35k
I’m use it now very perfect drive 😊
Nice looking, and nice standard equipment, Id like to know the re sale?
The car looks pretty good I guess, initial value for your money is good as well. I'm sure you'd take a hit when it's time to sell or trade, but then it doesn't cost big biccies ... really. Some Manufactures don't realise that vehicle names can dramatically effect sales, especially in the Western market. Chery - or Cherry - for a car ...? Omoda 5 for the model, but it's still a "you know what" Nissan are the worst offenders, with their weird names for their vehicles ( remember the Cedric? among many others) The name can make a difference.
冰淇淋👍。外观不错的车。好评保罗
goodjob！Sir！
Impressive!
I will going to have one
hey paul, can you do a review of the Toyota gr86? that be awesome.
I guess Australia spec would be almost the same as we have here in Malaysia and the suspension are so scary man
Their logo could easily be mistaken for that of Infinity's. Its design is appealing but it's a mixed bag of design cues of other brands. A bit of Peugeot and HRV on the front and Lexus and Nissan on the rear. A very noisy CVT as well.
An AWD version of the Chery Omoda 5 is expected to come to Ozzyland later on. It's expected to use a 1.6-litre turbocharged engine.
In Russia, the AWD Omoda (called the Omoda C5 there) is already available, but their version produces 110kW and 270Nm. I assume the one in Ozzyland will have 147kW and 290Nm.
Nobody asked
@@staasinnovations2126 That was uncalled for bre.
More power , the better 👍
@@Adam-7_7_7 And with AWD, much better.
@@staasinnovations2126 nobody asked for your comment either.
Seems like it has a Lexus rear end. Good video as usual.
Hi, I just want to know if you will also review the other models from Chery?
Looks nice yes
Hey Paul. May you please check if the front parking sensors, AEB AND Front collision warning if they work like you did on the other Kia
Is there any info related to ANCAP? In Australia? because it can't be used for ridershare like Uber.
It looks lovely, but how's the reliability?
It was great, please test drive Lexus RX500h 2023 too
