Overview
The Chinese‑owned Omoda brand has launched the 2026 version of its C5 EV in Thailand. Built on the same B‑segment electric SUV platform, the refreshed model focuses on upgraded equipment and a more competitive price while keeping a solid driving range of over 500 km (NEDC).
Pricing and Versions
Thai consumers can choose between two trims:
- Long Range Dynamic – ฿649,000 (about US$18,500)
- Long Range Max – ฿699,000 (about US$19,900)
The price adjustment is intended to sharpen Omoda’s edge against rivals such as BYD’s Atto 3 and MG’s ZS EV.
Dimensions and Design
The C5 EV retains its compact SUV proportions: 4,400 mm long, 1,830 mm wide, 1,588 mm tall, with a 2,630 mm wheelbase. Ground clearance sits at 165 mm and the drag coefficient is an aerodynamic 0.29 Cd. Cargo capacity starts at 380 L and expands to 1,075 L when the rear seats are folded.
Externally, the design stays true to the coupe‑SUV silhouette introduced last year – LED head‑ and tail‑lights, 18‑inch alloy wheels, electrically‑adjustable mirrors with heating, power‑folding doors, and a hands‑free powered tailgate.
Interior Technology
Inside, the highlight is a 24.6‑inch digital cockpit split into two 12.3‑inch screens. The cabin offers 50 W wireless charging, dual‑zone automatic climate control, 64‑color ambient lighting, synthetic‑leather seats with electric adjustment, and seamless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration. Depending on the trim, the audio system includes either six or eight speakers.
Performance and Range
Power comes from a front‑mounted electric motor delivering 211 hp and 288 Nm of torque to the front wheels. Acceleration from 0‑100 km/h is achieved in about 7.2 seconds, with a top speed of 172 km/h. A 61 kWh battery pack grants a maximum NEDC range of 505 km.
Charging Capabilities
The C5 EV supports both AC and DC fast charging via Type 2 and CCS Combo connectors. Going from 30 % to 80 % state‑of‑charge takes roughly 30 minutes on a DC fast‑charger. A built‑in Vehicle‑to‑Load (V2L) function can supply up to 3.3 kW of power to external appliances.
Safety Features
Safety equipment is comprehensive for the segment, including seven airbags, adaptive cruise control, emergency auto‑braking, lane‑departure warning with steering assist, blind‑spot monitoring, and a 360‑degree camera on higher trims. The advanced ADAS package bundles more than 17 driver‑assist technologies.
Conclusion
While the 2026 Omoda C5 EV does not overhaul its underlying architecture, the refined equipment list, attractive pricing, and over‑500 km driving range make it a compelling choice for urban electric SUV shoppers in Thailand.
