Review
I was attracted by its design, and that prompted me to understand more about this car.
The design looks stylish and appealing from both exterior and interior.

It packed with all the essential safety feature and drive wise has been smooth.
Battery is good enough to last for a week of travelling within Singapore.

What I like
1. Safety features
2. Car design
3. 540 degree camera
4. 10 year battery, 10 year free service & 7 year car warranty
5. Auto power off when move away
6. Auto power on when move closer to vehicle
7. Power tailgate

What I do not like
1. Rear mirror visibility is not great. Probably can overcome with rearview dashcam

Review
My first concern on Chery brand was overcame by: 1) its Fortune500 Company status, 2) sold 15 million cars worldwide 3) very good online reviews in many countries 4) 5* Euro NCAP (87-88%) & ANCAP (83-88%)

Had good experience with Vertex Automobile as they do not charge extra for No trade-in car unlike competitor Also not strict on car loan quantum. Sincere dealer!

Impressed with the interior quality and exterior looks!

What I like
Almost everything!
1. 10 year battery, 10 year free service & 7 year car warranty
2. Lush interior & Sony premium speakers
3. Gear stalk on right side of steering wheel; more space on centre console
4. Ventilated driver and co-driver seats (back and buttocks)
5. 50W wireless charging for phone with cooling vent
6. 2 large screens - responsive and intuitive; Apple/Android car play
7. ADAS 2.5 - many features; Driver facial Monitor useful (can off any safety feature you don't like)
8. Comes with frunk cover; no need to buy separately. 19L frunk
9. Smooth calibrated acceleration like ICE
10. No need start/stop button, press brake, set to D and drive off.
11. Auto power on/off when approach/leave car (useful for drivers in hurry)
12. Auto open tail gate when standing at rear (useful for hands-free op)
13. Remote aircon ON before reaching car, useful for hot days
14. Aircon vents manual control; on/off uses physical button
15. Sun-roof (manual button or voice command)
16. 540 degree camera views, including bottom of car.
17. Athletic-theme exterior design
18. In-built satellite navigation works well.
19. USB A and C in front and rear. 12V socket in front.
20. My full range about 400 km, close to 430km WLTP.

What I do not like
Not much for this price range:

Awaiting LTA approval for app
Cannot play video (safety feature?); no karaoke
Smaller boot compared to main competitor
Regen brake level 3 gives high recoil

We get many many features which are only available in high end continental models. High quality finishes both exterior and interior.

I believe this car will wow everyone looking to convert into EV.

Review
Initially I wasn't sure if I should change to an EV from ICE now. I did some reading on EV and it seemed to me that EV will be here to stay. I went to see the Atto3 and E5 as I am only considering an SUV. To me and in my own opinion, E5 impressed me in many ways, nice and classy interior with good size of the instrument and infortaiment panels, packed with features, quiet and powerful ride and a well organised bonnet (it's neat with 19L storage space too) and striking exterior. I was really impressed by the build quality of the E5! China car is now totally different from 10 over years ago, they have catched up and even exceeded the expectation of the customers in term of quality and driving experience. The sales person was really nice and knowleadgable in EV too that instilled a confident in me.

What I like
Fantastic features
Build quality
Ride comfort
Powerful ride
Comfortable interior
Ventilated front seats
Wireless Android Auto
Striking exterior

What I do not like
It will be a perfect EV for me if the software can be updated over the air! Hope Omoda will have this feature in the near future. According to the sales person, there is a SIM card slot but need to wait for approval from authority (not sure about this though)

Ormoda E5 really open my eyes on what a Chinese car can bring to the market with class quality cars pack with gadgets and touch of modern blinks.
Wify and I was certainly impressed with the sales person and the car.
Sales person explain the car well and the car perform better then continental SUV.
I'm excited to see what the Chinese car
Maker will bring in next ...

Review
It's more powerful than your typical lot, looks outright futuristic, and is all-electric to boot! What's there not to like about the E5?

What I like
201bhp means you've got quite a touch more power than the typical Cat A electric crossovers, and the car's pretty swanky from the outside as well.

What I do not like
Visibility is poor out the back. Cabin material use can feel cheap. Read up about what this car/brand in the Malaysian news.

Had it for a week and love everything Omoda E5 has to offer. Performance is great and the interior is well designed with quality finishing.
