Atto 3 wins on Blade Battery LFP safety (more thermally stable than Omoda E5's NMC in tropical climate), Sime Darby Auto Selection service network (30+ outlets), CKD at Sime Darby Plant Klang since Nov 2025, and proven 2-year Malaysian ownership track record (Atto 3 has been sold since 2023).

Q: How well does the Chery Omoda 5 hold its value?

Omoda 5 3-year retention is 45-50% of OTR , sitting in the typical Chinese-brand depreciation band. A 2023 Omoda 5 H originally at RM 118,800 transacts at RM 60,000-70,000 on Carlist mid-2026 (3 years, ~55-60% retention, slightly better than projected due to model popularity). 5-year retention sits at 30-38%. The 7-year warranty supports residual value, but service network thinness (30+ outlets nationwide) remains a risk factor for 2nd-owner buyers. CKD localisation from late 2024 should improve resale in the 2026+ cohort as parts availability matures.

Q: Has the Chery Omoda 5 sold well in Malaysia?

Yes, the Omoda 5 is Chery Malaysia's volume bestseller since the brand's 2023 relaunch. By end-2024, Chery Malaysia had sold 7,466 Omoda 5 units in Malaysia, representing approximately 59% of Chery's total Malaysian sales . This success positioned Chery as one of the top-selling Chinese auto brands in Malaysia, surpassing BYD on annual unit volume in 2024 (though BYD remained ahead on revenue due to higher average transaction price). The Omoda 5's success drove Chery's decision to CKD-localise it at Inokom Kulim from late 2024.

In short

Chery Omoda 5 2026 is sold in 3 variants from RM 99,800 OTR (1.5T) to RM 146,800 (E5 EV). The Omoda 5 is Chery Malaysia's volume B-SUV and the brand's CKD model at Inokom Kulim since late 2024. Variants: Omoda 5 1.5T (RM 99,800) base, Omoda 5 H 1.5T (RM 118,800) top petrol, and Omoda E5 EV (RM 146,800) full electric. Petrol variants use 1.5L turbocharged engine (156 hp / 230 Nm) with CVT. E5 EV uses 61.1 kWh NMC battery with 201 hp single-motor FWD delivering 430 km WLTP range. ASEAN NCAP 5-star, dual 10.25-inch curved displays, Sony 8-speaker audio, panoramic sunroof, ADAS Level 2 (AEB, ACC, LDW, BSD), 64-colour ambient lighting. 7-year/150,000 km warranty + 8-year battery warranty on E5 EV.

Should you buy?

Yes, if

Tech-and-design first B-SUV buyer wanting dual displays and 7-year warranty under RM 120k
Omoda 5 H 1.5T (RM 118,800) delivers dual 10.25-inch curved displays (segment-leading at this price), Sony 8-speaker audio, panoramic sunroof, full ADAS Level 2 (AEB, ACC, LDW, BSD), 64-colour ambient lighting, and 7-year warranty. Cross-shop with Honda HR-V S (RM 115,900) and Proton X50 Flagship X (RM 117,800). For buyers who prioritize technology inclusion over established brand resale, Omoda 5 H delivers the most feature-per-ringgit at this bracket
EV B-SUV buyer wanting alternative to BYD Atto 3 with dynamic chassis
Omoda E5 (RM 146,800) sits between BYD Atto 3 Standard (RM 123,800) and Extended Range (RM 149,800). Omoda E5 wins on driving feel and chassis dynamics, with 430 km WLTP range. For buyers who want EV B-SUV experience with more engaging driving character than the BYD Atto 3 and are willing to accept Chery's slightly thinner service network, E5 is the rational choice

Not if

Resale-conscious 3-year cycle buyer
Omoda 5 3-year resale at 45-50% trails Honda HR-V (~65-70%) and Toyota Corolla Cross (~62-67%) by 15-20 percentage points. On a RM 118,800 Omoda 5 H traded at year 3, the resale gap costs roughly RM 18,000-25,000 versus comparable Japanese rivals. For 3-year cycles, Japanese brands remain the rational pick despite higher entry pricing
Buyer wanting hybrid option or proven 5+ year track record
The Omoda 5 is petrol-only (no hybrid) or pure EV. For hybrid B-SUV, Honda HR-V e:HEV (RM 144,900) or upcoming MG ZS HEV (Q3 2026 launch) offer hybrid efficiency. The Omoda 5 has only 2+ years of Malaysian ownership data; buyers prioritizing long-term reliability evidence over feature-per-ringgit should consider Honda or Toyota with their established Malaysian track records

The Chery Omoda 5 is Chery Malaysia's volume bestseller and the brand's CKD model at Inokom Kulim, Kedah since late 2024. Launched in September 2023 as part of Chery's relaunch in Malaysia, the Omoda 5 has sold 7,466 units by end-2024, representing approximately 59% of Chery's total Malaysian sales. Sold in 3 variants from RM 99,800 OTR (1.5T base) to RM 146,800 (Omoda E5 EV). Petrol variants use 1.5L turbocharged engine (156 hp / 230 Nm) with CVT. The Omoda E5 EV uses 61.1 kWh NMC battery with 201 hp single-motor FWD delivering 430 km WLTP range. Distinguishing features: 'Art in Motion' design language, dual 10.25-inch curved displays, Sony 8-speaker audio, panoramic sunroof, 64-colour ambient lighting, ADAS Level 2. ASEAN NCAP 5-star rating. 7-year/150,000 km vehicle warranty + 8-year/160,000 km battery warranty on E5 EV.

'Art in Motion' Design Language

The Omoda 5 introduces Chery's 'Art in Motion' design language, intended to position the model as a design-forward B-SUV against more conservatively-styled rivals like Honda HR-V and Toyota Corolla Cross. Distinctive elements:

Front grille: gradient grid pattern with diamond inserts creating a 3D effect (deliberately distinct from Honda's solid grille or Proton X50's integrated bar grille)
LED Daytime Running Lights (DRL): full-width signature illumination across the front fascia
18-inch alloy wheels with two-tone diamond-cut finish
Panoramic sunroof standard on H variant
Hidden door handles (flush-mount design on H)
Coupe-SUV silhouette: sloped rear roofline distinguishes from typical squared-off B-SUV proportions

The Omoda 5's distinctive exterior was a primary driver of the 7,466-unit sales success by end-2024, buyers under 35 years old reported preferring the bold styling over the more conservative Honda HR-V or Mazda CX-30.

HR-V wins on Honda resale, brand recognition, and hybrid option (e:HEV at RM 144,900). For tech-forward sub-RM 120k B-SUV buyers, Omoda 5 H; for value and service, X50; for resale, HR-V.

Inokom Kulim CKD: The Late 2024 Localisation

The Omoda 5 petrol variants commenced CKD assembly at Inokom Corporation Kulim, Kedah in late 2024. The Inokom plant assembles multiple non-Big 3 brands under one roof:

Mazda CX-30, CX-5, CX-8, Mazda 3 (since 2011)
Kia Sportage, Kia Sorento (since 2024 under Bermaz Auto Alliance)
Chery Omoda 5 (since late 2024)
Hyundai Tucson (since 2023, Hyundai-Sime Darby Motors)

CKD status for the Omoda 5 petrol delivers several benefits:

Pricing stability: RM 99,800 entry maintained against potential CBU duty fluctuations
Parts availability: CKD-status parts can be stocked at Inokom and Chery service centres rather than air-freighted from China
EEV framework eligibility: CKD-EEV-certified Omoda 5 variants qualify for sales tax exemption
Resale support: 2nd-owner buyers gain confidence from CKD-Malaysia status versus CBU-China import vehicles

Omoda 5 Warranty and Service

Vehicle warranty: 7 years or 150,000 km
Battery warranty (E5 EV): 8 years or 160,000 km
Free service: 5 years labour included on CKD Omoda 5; 3 years on CBU E5 EV
Roadside assistance: 5 years
Service network: 30+ authorised Chery outlets across 23 Malaysian cities

The 7-year warranty matches Proton (7 years / 200,000 km) and is longer than Japanese rivals (5 years). The 5-year free labour service on CKD variants is a competitive inclusion versus most rivals which offer 3 years.

The Chery Omoda 5 2026, anchored by the volume sales success (7,466 units by end-2024) and CKD localisation at Inokom Kulim from late 2024, established Chery as one of Malaysia's top-selling Chinese auto brands.
