London, 6 June 2025 – With customer deliveries already underway and order books officially open, OMODA UK has launched its all-new flagship SUV – the OMODA 9 SHS – in what marks a bold new chapter for the fast-growing brand. Combining the performance and silence of an EV with the practicality of a plug-in hybrid, this large luxury SUV delivers on both innovation and value, priced from £44,990 OTR*.

Available through over 74 nationwide dealers, the OMODA 9 SHS enters the premium plug-in hybrid market with a unique proposition: everything as standard. And with figures like a WLTP range of over 700 miles, 93 miles of electric-only driving, and CO₂ emissions as low as 38 g/km, the numbers speak volumes.


Hybrid Power with EV Performance

At the heart of the OMODA 9 SHS is a state-of-the-art Self-Charging Hybrid System (SHS), capable of both plug-in and regenerative charging. Delivering a combined 449 PS and 700 Nm of torque, this SUV is no slouch – it sprints from 0 to 62 mph in just 4.9 seconds.

A dedicated three-speed hybrid transmission and intelligent all-wheel drive make for a seamless, refined driving experience, while electromagnetic suspension ensures impressive ride comfort across varied road conditions.


Luxury Inside and Out

Every detail of the OMODA 9 SHS is engineered for serenity. Cabin noise is kept to a whisper, measured at just 45.8 dB at urban speeds – thanks to acoustic tyres and dual-layer soundproof glass.

Inside, the focus is on quiet luxury. A curved 24.6-inch HD display anchors the tech-forward dashboard, while a 14-speaker SONY surround sound system, heated and ventilated seats for four, and a 540-degree panoramic camera system come as standard.

Other standout features include:

  • 1.3-metre panoramic sunroof
  • Ambient cabin lighting
  • Electronically reclining rear seats
  • Cabin air purification system
  • App-based remote control functions

Aesthetics Rooted in Harmony

Design is far from an afterthought. Built around the golden ratio, the OMODA 9 SHS has been sculpted to offer visual balance and assertive presence. A wide-body stance, sleek surfaces, and a dramatic LED front lighting signature that activates upon approach all contribute to its unmistakable personality.


Accessible Innovation

Speaking at the launch, Victor Zhang, UK Country Director of OMODA, remarked:

“Seeing the first OMODA 9 SHS vehicles reach customers is a significant milestone. This model represents everything we stand for – intelligent engineering, elegant design and hybrid technology that fits seamlessly into daily life – without the premium price tag.”

He added:

“Our SHS system, which also powers the best-selling JAECOO 7 SHS, proves that hybrid technology has evolved. The OMODA 9 SHS delivers electric-like performance, exceptional comfort and true ease of use. It’s the kind of car that offers more than just efficiency – it brings power, calm, and a real sense of quality to every journey.”


Comprehensive Peace of Mind

In keeping with its value-focused ethos, OMODA offers a 7-year/100,000-mile warranty (with unlimited mileage in the first three years), 8-year battery coverage, and RAC home start cover – all included in the purchase price.


A New Benchmark in the Hybrid SUV Segment

With its bold design, luxury specification, and groundbreaking hybrid performance, the OMODA 9 SHS positions itself as an uncompromising contender in the premium SUV space. It’s not just a car that adapts to the demands of modern mobility – it redefines what’s expected of a plug-in hybrid.

The OMODA 9 SHS is available to order now, with first deliveries already in motion.
