The seats will also have a cooling or heating feature in addition to electronic adjustability for the utmost ease and comfort.

Omoda 5 Powertrain
About the Omoda 5’s powertrain, anticipate the launch of a 1.5-liter turbo engine in this design. In compared to the rest of its competitors, the Omoda 5 appears to be a highly promising performer with 144 horsepower available and a maximum torque number of 230 Nm. The T1X chassis, on which the vehicle is mounted, offers room, lengthy drive capability, generous ground clearance, and usable approach and departure angles.
The 5 will reportedly also be made in a battery-electric vehicle form, according to sources. It is currently unclear whether or not that model will be introduced later in 2023. But given how slowly the Philippines is developing its electric infrastructure, it is not improbable that the company is thinking about the possibility of allowing electric vehicles to populate its range at some point in the near future.
