Sharing the spotlight at the OMODA | JAECOO Carnival is the Omoda C9 PHEV, a plug-in hybrid luxury SUV coupé that promises electrified performance unlike anything else in the segment.
The C9 PHEV combines a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine with three electric motors, delivering a jaw-dropping 605PS and 915Nm of torque under optimal conditions. This setup launches the SUV from 0–100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds.
Despite the massive output, efficiency is a core focus. A 34.46 kWh LFP battery gives the SUV up to 150km of pure EV range and a total range of around 1,100km. Charging is versatile, supporting 70 kW DC fast charging as well as 6.6 kW and 2.8 kW AC options. Fuel economy is an impressive 1.7 L/100km (WLTC).
The powertrain is paired with a 3-Speed Dedicated Hybrid Transmission (DHT) for smooth yet responsive performance. Ride quality is further enhanced with Continuous Damping Control (CDC) active suspension, capable of making 100 adjustments per second and offering seven drive modes tailored for on-road and off-road use.
Luxury is at the forefront with an Auxiliary Lighting System, heated and ventilated front seats, and refined detailing across the cabin, blending power with sophistication.
With its combination of electrified performance, long-range capability, and premium features, the Omoda C9 PHEV is shaping up to be the halo model for the brand in Malaysia – and possibly one of the most powerful SUVs in its price bracket when launched.
