The latest Omoda 5 SHS-H hybrid has arrived in the UK, bringing a fresh layer of electrified performance and enhanced appeal to the brand’s already competitive SUV line-up.
Building on the success of the petrol and electric versions, the new hybrid introduces a more refined driving experience alongside improved efficiency in everyday use – helping broaden the model’s appeal to a wider audience.
While some rivals may still lead outright on efficiency, the Omoda 5 continues to stand out where it matters most to buyers: value, equipment and striking design.
Hybrid power adds everyday usability
At the heart of the new SHS-H is a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine paired with an electric motor, delivering a combined output of around 200hp and noticeably improved responsiveness over the standard petrol model.
The addition of hybrid technology allows for quiet, low-speed electric driving in urban environments, while also offering strong acceleration when needed – making it a versatile option for both city and motorway driving.
Strong value remains a key selling point
One of the Omoda 5’s biggest strengths continues to be its competitive pricing and high level of standard equipment, undercutting many established rivals in the family SUV segment.
Even at entry level, the model offers a premium feel, with features such as:
• Dual 12.25-inch digital displays
• Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Advanced driver assistance systems
• High-quality interior materials for the price point
This combination of affordability and technology is helping Omoda quickly establish itself as a serious contender in the UK market.
