London, 24 July 2025 – In a landmark moment for OMODA UK, the flagship OMODA 9 SHS has been awarded the coveted five-star safety rating by Euro NCAP, tested under the rigorous new 2025 protocols. This result underscores the premium self-charging hybrid SUV’s impressive combination of intelligent safety, cutting-edge performance and luxury refinement, reinforcing its status as one of the most complete and reassuring vehicles in its segment.

The Euro NCAP results reflect strong scores across all major safety categories, with 90% in Adult Occupant protection and 85% in Child Occupant protection. The OMODA 9 SHS earned maximum points in key crash test scenarios, including the frontal offset and side barrier tests for child protection. Adult occupant safety also saw commendations for structural integrity and highly effective airbag deployment in both front and side impact situations.

Safety, sophistication and sustainability – with the OMODA 9, none of it is optional,” said Gary Lan, CEO of OMODA UK. “This rating is more than just a number – it reflects our uncompromising approach to design, our investment in active and passive safety systems, and our belief that advanced protection should be standard, not premium.”

Standard Safety Technology with No Compromises

The five-star rating is underpinned by a comprehensive range of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) fitted as standard across the OMODA 9 SHS range. These include:

  • Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB)
  • Emergency Lane Keeping (ELK)
  • Front Collision Warning
  • Integrated Cruise Assist
  • 540-degree transparent-view camera system

Together, these systems offer a safety net that extends far beyond reactive protection, supporting drivers with predictive hazard identification and proactive crash avoidance.

Luxury Meets Long-Distance Capability

Beyond its safety credentials, the OMODA 9 SHS is engineered to deliver a compelling combination of performance and practicality. Featuring a 1.5-litre TGDI petrol engine, dual electric motors, and a 34.46 kWh MP3 battery, the vehicle produces 449 PS and 700 Nm of torque. It sprints from 0–62 mph in just 4.9 seconds, while maintaining emissions of only 38 g/km CO₂.

With an EV-only range of 93 miles and a total WLTP-certified range of over 700 miles, the SUV recently completed a 730-mile journey across nine countries on a single charge and tank – a testament to the real-world capabilities of its hybrid powertrain.

Ownership with Confidence

Starting at £44,990 OTR, the OMODA 9 SHS is backed by a robust 7-year/100,000-mile warranty and 8-year battery cover, further enhanced by RAC Home Start included as standard. The model is now available across more than 75 OMODA&JAECOO retailers in the UK, offering customers nationwide access to OMODA’s growing brand ecosystem.

This achievement follows in the footsteps of the OMODA 5 and JAECOO 7 SHS, both of which also received five-star Euro NCAP ratings, signaling the brand’s firm commitment to setting new benchmarks for safety, efficiency and everyday usability in the UK automotive landscape.

As the premium SUV segment continues to evolve, the OMODA 9 SHS arrives as a formidable, future-facing choice—one that doesn’t ask drivers to choose between performance, luxury, range or reassurance.
