New ride old ride

Make sure if u upgrade from a 2 airbag car get at least 4 to 6 airbag for your next car

Will save your lots of pain if u accident

That cannot be measured with money

i think it is certainly a trade-off for the price that you pay for a Chery-branded vehicle vs reputable brands within the same segment and price range.

what Chery is basically doing is eating into Proton, Toyota and Honda's pie share - every unit of Omada sold equates to a loss for either of the brands. this is no easy feat for a new brand with almost-zero presence here, and knowing that Malaysian consumers are very price sensitive, the Omada does present a good-value-for-money product that will definitely distrupt the B segment market.

what remains to be seen is the durability and after-sales service like many here has brought up as well. it remains to be seen how will Chery Malaysia control and regulate the showrooms and service centres in Malaysia - until then, from an aesthetic and functionality point of view, the car does look good and the value that it offers really blows every brand out of the water.

now only for the next thing to do, test drive it

Tempted to try their 2.0T with 7 gear DCT. How it react. If for Geely Proton, their DCT kinda slower for reliability they said, need to see on Chery.

dont think mainstream brand like T or H will be affected much. most likely koreans or french brands. good not good enough. cheap not cheap enough

the cycle i think goes around the world..
japanese car seems to reach its peak and spending more money on R&D seems to be least priority than to sustain the current market situation. rumors said that Camry will no longer be sold in Japan itself?
now, chinese car makers has been very positive especially on the EV markets. in china itself, the competition is so great that numerous brands has evolved and their design are very "new" and aggressive.
they are also competing with toyota and tesla to produce the best battery with the longest distance.

After 43 years, Toyota will stop selling the Camry in Japan by the end of 2023. This is due to poor sales of the D-segment sedan in its home market, with only 6,000 units leaving dealerships last year. At present, the Camry is priced between 3.495 and 4.682 million yen (RM118,404 and RM158,618) in Japan, although most dealers have already stopped taking orders, reports Nikkei Asia.

While production of the Camry will cease for domestic customers, the model will still be made in Japan for export markets where it will continue to be sold – the sedan is also produced in the United States, China as well as Thailand.

The Camry got its name from the Japanese word “kanmuri” meaning “crown,” and since its debut in 1980, about 1.3 millions have been sold in Japan. In addition to Japan, the model sells in over 100 countries, with more than 21 million units purchased cumulatively through the end of 2022.

Despite the end of the Camry in its home market, Toyota will still sell the Corolla, Corolla Axio, Century, Mirai, Prius as well as the liftback-esque all-new Crown. These days, customers there are leaning in more on SUVs and minivans, which further reduces the demand for sedans. In 2022, Nissan discontinued the Fuga, a year after Honda stopped making the Legend.

Guys. I have try this omada car, and is so happen I accelerate and there is a car come out so I try to brake (not until emergency type) but after putting some pressure into brake pedal, the brake suddenly have another round of braking (it feel like the brake pedals gonna broke off) type , and when I mention to the sales person , he say this is adas braking take place . Is anyone can confirm ? Is all car equip with adas also having this kind is scenario when happen in emergency brake ?

yes for adas function, believe got a notification on the dashboard meter. If the system detects the car is near, it will braking for u. Example my officemate doing a zig zag cut from right-left-right lane due to lane hogger, suddently the adas pull some brake for him.

every manufacturer know D-segment is dead now, all need SUV and now EV.

Still waiting for Chery to update on their maintenance package for the Omoda 5. So far, the local dealer here has finished furnishing their shop. Not yet for their service centres maybe inline for their September delivery date.

wrv RS and O5 H is just 10k diff, any thought?

If u had experience with HM model, I believe most will jump to other brand. Somemore a just tiny NA engine with rm100k price is overpriced too much

why?
is overprice but ppl still buy

NVH poor, just slightly above P2, roof side sound like P2 Viva when rain, outside sound clearly hear. Not to mentioned the rattling sound inside the door trim and recently steering rack issues.

U try SC claim all above, they said either factory QC already accepted it or they have done, but no changes whatsoever

which SC u went to?

SC Semenyih, Global Amity Bangi and 4S Sg Long Kajang. In the end the New Era SC Jalan Semenyih is one that helps me with many warranty claims. I have claimed 3 times for my Driveshaft and 1 time driver side mirror there as well as repaired the rattling for the gear lever area. They said reopen, checking and install back.
