The Omoda 9, as a plug-in hybrid (PHEV), has an official WLTP fuel consumption figure of 201.8mpg, but real-world use shows much lower figures—typically around 43.6mpg in hybrid mode[1]. Independent real-world testing has resulted in even higher numbers, such as 47.9mpg in ‘Balanced’ driving mode[4]. The Omoda 9’s electric-only range is claimed to be 93 miles, though typical real-world usage yields about two-thirds of that[1]. Its petrol tank holds 70 litres, giving a theoretical total range of around 700 miles[1].
The petrol-powered Omoda 5, meanwhile, has an official fuel consumption rating of approximately 31–31.4mpg[3][5]. Real-world usage aligns with or slightly improves these numbers, with some testers achieving up to 34mpg in mixed driving conditions[3]. The Omoda 5 is equipped with features designed to optimize fuel economy, including turbocharged engines, selectable driving modes (like Eco mode), lightweight construction, and, on hybrid/electric variants, regenerative braking to recapture energy during urban stops[2].
Overall, the Omoda 9 excels in combined efficiency when its electric range is utilized, especially for short, frequent journeys and regular home charging, while the Omoda 5’s petrol engine delivers typical fuel economy for its class but less than some competitors[1][3][5].
