Chinese automaker Chery stood as one of the biggest winners of late after snagging several awards around the globe.

Amongst the most recent is title of‘ Best Mid-sized Crossover Vehicle’ by Autoshow TV of Mexico, as well as the 2022 Auto Award. Besides that, the OMODA 5 also bagged the Qatar Automobile Association’s ‘Best Science and Technology SUV Award’.

These successes charted by the OMODA 5 in both Mexico and Qatar comes shortly after the model’s other recent accomplishment of achieving a full five-star rating in the Euro NCAP crash testing scheme.



According to Chery, future tech and trendy design are at the OMODA 5’s very core, thus allowing it to hold a rather strong appeal amongst young global trendsetters and their desire to be ahead of the curve.

Evidently, these recent accolades from overseas garnered by the OMODA 5 might just be the fuel needed by the brand in its bid to re-enter the Malaysian market this year. Following an extensive SUV-laden preview held late last year, Chery is set to locally assemble (CKD) the bulk of which when it eventually re-launches in the local market sometime this year.
