Omoda and its sister brand Jaecoo are going great guns in the UK, with buyers lapping up the combination of style, quality and value. However, the Omoda 9 goes into uncharted territory at well over £40,000 – even being hit by the government’s luxury car levy that will make it pricey on road fund license each year.
But, like other Omodas and Jaecoos, it looks very attractive in the showroom. It’s a sizeable, great-looking five seater with lots of space in the back and a decent-size boot. The kit count looks good, the quality is impressive, and the efficiency of the plug-in hybrid powertrain is really appealing. With all that taken into account, that price tag doesn’t seem too bad.
