Description

Omoda 5 2026 review: the SHS-H full hybrid in Premium trim, inside and out, to see why so many people in the UK choose this Chinese SUV. I go over it panel by panel: what the key can do, a door that sounds better than many older brands, the boot, the space in the back, the seats I love, and every menu on the screen, with the one thing I really miss.
