Best-selling Chinese brand Omoda will add a fully electric version of its 4 crossover to its UK roster next year, bringing its total number of vehicles on the market to 4.

Available as a full EV and a hybrid, the Omoda 4 sits beneath the 5,7, and 9 in the firm’s model hierarchy and will serve as an entry point to the Chery-owned automaker. The electric-only version is expected to be priced from around £27,000 and come fitted with a 61kWh battery promising 248 miles of range. The 61kWh battery is also used in the Omoda 5.

Performance is yet to be confirmed, but given its shared underpinnings with the Omoda 5, the Omoda 4 is expected to have the same 106mph top speed and the same 0-62mph time of around 7.6 seconds.

Unlike other Omoda models, the 4 adopts a wedgy “aeroblade” design with sharp contours visible around the front end, shoulder line, and wheel arches. Inside, the “cyber cockpit” is a usual reasonably-priced Chinese EV fare with a few visible controls, a centrally-mounted touchscreen, and plenty of AI functionality.

Aimed at a more youthful audience, the Omoda 4’s infotainment touchscreen comes with a built-in mobile gaming system with a wireless handheld controller and over 20 games. Other unique features of the Omoda 4 include a carbon fibre-effect trim, a ‘Interstellar Blue’ paint finish, and a Lamborghini Urus-style ignition button.

When it goes on sale in 2027, the Omoda 4 will have to work hard against similarly-sized and priced rivals, including the Skoda Epiq, the Renault 4, and the Ford Puma Gen-E.

Omoda and sister brand Jaecoo arrived in the UK in August 2024, and have since proven a hit amongst UK buyers. In August this year, the dual-house brand surpassed 100,000 total vehicle sales and holds 5.7% of the UK’s automotive market. The Jaecoo 7 became the UK’s top-selling car this year.

Omoda and Jaecoo’s popularity with UK EV buyers is driven largely by their competitive pricing and generous trim levels. To read our review of the Omoda 5, click here. Meanwhile, you can read our Jaecoo 7 review by clicking these words.
