Omoda Rebrands Compact SUV as Omoda 4 at Global Preview in China

Co-creation drove the rename, with only high‑level details shared as full specifications and launch dates remain unconfirmed.

Overview

  • The model first shown in April as Omoda 3 was publicly presented in Wuhu as Omoda 4 following customer feedback highlighted by company executives.
  • Positioned below the Omoda 5, the five-seat SUV is about 4.4 metres long and rides on Chery’s T1X platform shared with other Omoda and Jaecoo models.
  • Omoda signals market-dependent powertrains spanning petrol, hybrid, plug‑in hybrid and full electric, with a sport‑oriented Ultra variant planned.
  • Designers describe a youth-focused ‘Cyber Mecha’ look with angular lighting and a cabin featuring a portrait touchscreen and a flip‑up starter switch.
  • Launch timing remains inconsistent across reports, with UK and South African outlets pointing to 2026—including early 2026 for South Africa—while others cite a late‑2026 on‑sale window.
