I am in the market for an EV here in Western Australia and found this review one of the best I have seen, as you all drove each car. I would probably go for the Omoda, just wish it had heads up display and VTL. Thanks Gentlemen.
Why Omoda E5 suddenly booms sold 3800units in 3 months in Indonesia? - It uses BYD LFP battery - Less price then BYD Atto 3 - Lifetime Warranty Battery - 201 HP, 340 nm(instant peak, 61kwh, 430km(WLTP)/ 505km(Dynamic) - Exterior & Interior minimalist and luxury
@@patrickpetra-MI6 Also Omoda E5 has way better audio quality than Atto 3. Omoda's Sony has crisp low and highs, and the double glass + smaller windows helps the sound quality. Suspension wise, Omoda e5 feels more expensive. When I test drive Ioniq 5 (my first Ev drive), I was blown away. After that I tested atto 3 and i was dissapointed. Then tried Omoda E5 and blown away again.
Thanks for the review! You really nailed on the top 3 Affordable EV and I can't really find any good comparison between the three except for your channel. Kudos to you!
Omoda use byd blade battery and comes with lifetime warranty. Even byd didnt give lifetime warranty for their own car. For me its definetely why omoda still mile ahead against their competitors. Good job omoda
Great video. Comparisons of the Atto and MG4 are hard to come by due to being different builds and (previously) price points. Have driven the Atto and MG4 and found they felt very different. I looking forward to the Omoda E5 being available in Australia.
The MG 4 is simply my pick. Omoda E5 is worth considering as long as I choose the model that have multi-link rear, yes you gotta watch out on tech specs. I'd go for E5 EX. It's hard to ignore MG 4's lower ride position as it have lower centre of gravity.
Omoda looks hard to beat. Anyone got feedback on the company's reputation for spare parts availability, and dealing with warranty claims etc? Some car companies are terrible and some are helpful.
I have a MG4 SE, it's a fantastic car to drive. The battery in this model is fine to charge to 100% so it's a great car to have around town, to and from work. I previously owned a MG ZST Turbo. It was a bucket of crap, you wouldn't think This car was made by the same company.
Thanks for the comments, always like to hear from owners. Totally agree about the difference between the HS and MG4. Plus we really liked the rear wheel bias. Cheers again.
MG 4 SE (Excite 51) is the one to go for if you're quite tight on budget but it's still a very good car as you can have the same rear multi-link suspension as in.... Essence 64 (Trophy), Long Range 64 and X-Power. I don't even wanna think about MG ZST as I've already got myself a ZS EV. Even I'm happy to go for the MG 4 SE.
@@TarmacLife starts under $40k in Aus and certainly a hatchback. Other 2 are 10k more, so really an unfair comparison. Base model 4 has best battery and bang for buck is best there is out there currently. Not sure how NZ qualifies it as an SUV? But elevated height is what does it everywhere else in the world.
@@paulb1951 Thanks for following up. SUVs are a big thing here in NZ (probably the same in Aus) so manufacturers seem to like to throw whatever they can into that segment (IGNIS). As for price, the Atto3 starts at $51,990. MG4 $51,990 and Omoda E5 $47,990.
Several Aussie TH-cam channel hosts have been invited to visit the factories of Geely and Zeekr, traveling in business class and staying in 5-star luxury hotels. Keep up the good work, and your turn will come.
You are comparing MG of old and MG of the present as being similar, when in fact they are like chalk and cheese. Please refrain, as any classic car enthusiast knows that MG as an iconic British marque is long dead.
Thanks for your comment. Dave is old and British and as such holds on to the names of his youth. Despite MG being revived by the Chinese, don't you think it's good that these old iconic names continue? Maybe further generations may take the time to look up images of the old MG's on the roadside with their bonnets up - love nostalgia and love these names to continue - regardless of whom takes them on.
@@hadisoewoyo8739 poor range, slow to charge, only about ten years life, spontaneously combust, expensive to maintain and repair, expensive insurance. Soon won't be allowed in parking buildings These are the most obvious ones
@@rorge007 Why did you say they have poor range when you only need to do city commutes with EVs? My daily commute to work even through motorways is less than 30Km, 150km weekly to work. Also you need to consider traffic lights or frequent intersection stops in town which can lead to dollars worths of petrol at red traffic lights or possibly face premature wear of starter motor of ICEs. If you can't charge at home, then you can go for a hybrid but I only pay $1.35 to charge my EV or at the most $3.70. Servicing is also a lot cheaper due to few moving parts compared to Internal Combustion Engines. I still prefer ICE but I have to pay $180 to fill my tank! My majority of driving is local commutes so my ICE will be driven on a long drive weekend. 10 year of life? Majority will replace their cars in around 5 years. For your "interest" there are "old" Nissan Leaf around and still doing well and so too Mitsubishi iMIEV.
@@rorge007i think not everyone experienced that. Ice car also has limited range but only because gas station infra years ahead of charging station make those ice can travel more. Fire? Ice car in percentage much higher to catch fire on its own compared to ev. Ev is less To maintain thus less expensive also. battery can be replaced for each module, no need to replace whole.

Thanks forbthe support, really appreciate it. They're all good but the Omoda was our pick too

- Lifetime Warranty Battery
- 201 HP, 340 nm(instant peak, 61kwh, 430km(WLTP)/ 505km(Dynamic)

@@ralesmana9684 True but not very accurate, the sales in August are accumulation from previous months
@@aquaboy1650 Now, you agree with me 😉
Thanks for the review! You really nailed on the top 3 Affordable EV and I can't really find any good comparison between the three except for your channel. Kudos to you!
Thanks, really appreciate the comments and support - It's something we are looking to do more of.
Guys the cruise control on the MG is the steering wheel button right above the left star. One press. Easy.
Thanks for watching and comments. Yep we get it now, we're just pointing out that the steering wheel icon is not as obvious as the others.
I trust byd's battery,if you old enough to know Nokia, byd already was the battery supplier at the time Nokia dominate the mobile phone industry
Yeah, the blade battery is clever tech.
Good thing the E5 uses blade battery technology.
Yeah I heard the OMODA also uses the same Blade battery
Omoda uses BYD LFP battery and Lifetime Warranty here in Indonesia
Omoda use byd blade battery and comes with lifetime warranty. Even byd didnt give lifetime warranty for their own car. For me its definetely why omoda still mile ahead against their competitors. Good job omoda
We just bought the Chery E5, pick it up this Fri. Thanks for the review
Good choice, let us know how it goes
Omoda E5 looks far far more luxurious than the other two. Also its exterior actually looks sleek and beautiful!
Yeah it does look a cut above
Great video. Comparisons of the Atto and MG4 are hard to come by due to being different builds and (previously) price points. Have driven the Atto and MG4 and found they felt very different. I looking forward to the Omoda E5 being available in Australia.
Thanks for watching and great feedback. We enjoyed making the test. You should definitely check out the Omoda. I think it's Chery in Aus.
Thanks Gents.
❤ all 3 ( not u guys! 😂) but the Omoda is my pick, too!
Thanks Gents, great reviews!
Thanks, appreciate the support. The Omoda was the best of the trio
Here in Indonesia, Omoda E5 is selling well.
Cheaper, better performance, better electric consumption, better equips and better interior than a Atto3.
The MG 4 is simply my pick. Omoda E5 is worth considering as long as I choose the model that have multi-link rear, yes you gotta watch out on tech specs. I'd go for E5 EX. It's hard to ignore MG 4's lower ride position as it have lower centre of gravity.
We actually really enjoyed them all and the MG4 was more of a driver's car. But day to day living, the Omoda was great.
omoda E5 👍
It's very good
Glad i waited. I am looking forward to test drive Neta X ~
We don't have the Neta brand here yet - but looks interesting
Neta is comfort but motor is not as powerfull as those
Omoda looks hard to beat. Anyone got feedback on the company's reputation for spare parts availability, and dealing with warranty claims etc? Some car companies are terrible and some are helpful.
They seem to have good support here with 7 year warranty, but don't know the follow through
I do love the MG4 Luxury version wish to own it what the driver car of the year 2024 🥰💯👍🏻
What about another comparison to XPeng G6?
It's not here in NZ right now
What was the average efficiency you achieved with the Omoda?
it averaged around the 16kWh mark
@@TarmacLife that's really impressive!
Waiting for facelift byd atto 3 hindustan south. That will be my choice. It must bet white exterior paint . Nice.
Cool, let us know when you get it
can you confirm these are all 2024 models? I watched the video twice and didn't hear you mention the MY.
They are (were) all current models, however, the Atto3 and MG4 were released earlier
I choose omoda e5 although the rear compartment is just average enough, but interior design much better than atto 3 and other.
Omoda ev😍😍😍
We agree
which is best Byd atto3 or Omoda ?
Watching the video will explain all
What was the range on the omoda
Thanks for watching and comments. They all achieved between 350-370km. Omoda around 356km, Atto3 around 362km and MG4 around 370km.

I own omoda e5..good ev
Agree with you, it's very upmarket
I also own one, i love the auto lock feature, design, lightning (especially night time), the price is also acceptable. Top notch!
@@hendrytany9856it's not available here hindustan south, got byd atto 3, I guess I will choose that !
When is the omoda coming to the uk 🇬🇧
Why’s the MG4 in there? Is a hatchback not an SUV and a lot cheaper.
They call it an SUV here in NZ and it's not the cheapest of the 3

Indeed. MG4 is a hatch. MG ZS esp. ZS EV is an SUV.
Surely the MG4 is a normal hatchback, certainly not an SUV
Kinda agree, bu marketed in NZ as an SUV

We can only hope. Thanks for watching and comments
I choose only LFP / Steel Blade Battery, which is safe and can not explode : BYD👍
Can't argue with that
Omoda e5 use byd battery and battery from other battery giant catl also safe .
amongst the chinese brands, Chery seems to have most issues related to build quality
Overall, all build quality has improved dramatically from China
i own a BYD atto 3
It's a great EV
My answer to this is ZEEKR X RWD !
Not here yet
what about the Geely Galaxy E5?
We don't have it in NZ
I am driving omoda e5
Nice, good to hear from an owner
neta X?
Not here yet
Every 'feature' like hands-free trunk opening is something that will cost you down the the line when it fails. Give me minimal 'features'.

2 reviewers were good and provided helpful feedback . The other dead pan monotonous Adams family reviewer needs to be replaced . Like a.s.a.p
None of them are affordable.
They are in comparison to other EVs
Price should come down. Hindustan south.
Ok.... so what about.... a Toyota Camry V6? or a Highlander V6? As you can see EVs' price tags are now similar to everyday ICEs.
