New OMODA C5 Style

We’re talking about the new OMODA C5 Style, now launching in South Africa, and it’s time to get real. The C5 Style is the affordable crossover you didn’t know you needed, but once you see it, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.

Priced at a cool R359 900, this beauty just made your dream car way more accessible. It’s like winning the lottery without even buying a ticket. You’re saving R88 000 compared to the C5 Tech, and trust me, that’s no chump change. You could use that extra cash to buy a whole lot of other things you don’t need, but let’s be honest, you probably will.

From the outside, this baby looks identical to the C5 Tech. It’s even rocking a new Bloodstone Red color that’s basically saying, “Yeah, I’m here, and I look damn good.” It’s not just a pretty face though – under the hood, it’s got the same turbocharged 1.5-litre petrol engine as its more expensive siblings (except for the C5 GT, which is for those who really like to speed). We’re talking 115 kW and 230 Nm of pure front-wheel power, all managed by a CVT that even lets you pretend you’re driving a manual. Sweet, right?

Now, let’s talk features. Despite the price cut, this thing is loaded. Leather-trimmed steering wheel? Check. Front sports seats? Double check. Dual 10.25-inch displays for your instrument cluster and touchscreen system (with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, mind you)? Hell yes. A six-speaker sound system, reversing camera, automatic air conditioning, cruise control, automatic LED headlights, and 17-inch alloy wheels? It’s like Oprah handed out the features list.

Safety-wise, it’s got your back. ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, tyre-pressure monitoring, rear parking sensors, an electric parking brake, ISOfix child-seat anchors, four airbags, and seatbelt reminders for both the driver and front passenger. It’s practically a fortress on wheels.

Hans Greyling, the big cheese at OMODA & JAECOO, summed it up nicely: “We’ve always been competitively priced, but the new C5 Style? It’s a game-changer. And to sweeten the deal, we’ve teamed up with Absa for some killer finance options.” Translation: You’re running out of excuses not to get one.

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, the C5 Style comes with a 2-year/30 000 km service plan, a 5-year/150 000 km factory warranty, and Roadside Assist for 5 years. Oh, and did I mention the engine warranty? 10 years or 1 million km, whichever comes first. That’s right – this car is built to last longer than most relationships.

So, what are you waiting for? OMODA & JAECOO are killing it globally with over 20 000 units sold in May 2024 alone, and they’re just getting started in the EU. Get yourself the new OMODA C5 Style and join the revolution. Your wallet will thank you, and so will everyone else who sees you driving it.
