London, 26 November 2025 – OMODA&JAECOO UK has announced a major new initiative to support electric vehicle buyers, launching its own EV Tax Rebate that effectively offsets the first years of the forthcoming national pay-per-mile EV tax. The rebate covers the equivalent cost of 20,000 miles at the UK Government’s newly introduced 3p-per-mile charge, which is due to be implemented from 2028–2029.

Available immediately, the manufacturer-funded saving applies to new OMODA E5 and JAECOO E5 models purchased via OMODA&JAECOO finance and through any of the brand’s 91 nationwide dealerships. While the EV tax is still several years away, the rebate is structured to ensure buyers benefit throughout a full 48-month finance agreement, effectively locking in a future cost saving at today’s point of purchase.

A Timely Boost for EV Affordability

This initiative arrives as electric vehicles play an increasingly pivotal role in the UK’s transport and decarbonisation strategy. With the average EV covering 8,740 miles per year, the rebate effectively pre-funds between two and three years’ worth of the upcoming road-use tax.

Gary Lan, CEO of OMODA&JAECOO UK, commented:
“Today’s Budget introduces a new 3p-per-mile EV tax from 2028–2029, and we want to make the transition to electric driving as smooth as possible for our customers immediately – not three or four years from now. Our EV Tax Rebate for the OMODA E5 and JAECOO E5 effectively covers the first few years of this new tax, giving drivers the equivalent of thousands of miles of zero-cost motoring. These vehicles represent the forefront of electric mobility, and this initiative reflects our commitment to making clean, efficient, and intelligent transportation more accessible to UK drivers from day one.”

OMODA E5: More Range, More Efficiency, More Value

The MY25 OMODA E5 introduces several upgrades that enhance efficiency, comfort, and everyday usability:

  • 61 kWh battery with 267 miles WLTP range
  • Faster charging: 130 kW DC and 10.3 kW AC
  • Heat pump added to E5 Noble for improved cold-weather performance
  • New adjustable passenger seat for greater ergonomic comfort

Priced from £339 per month with 0% APR available, the E5 combines competitive running costs with a comprehensive technology offering and the security of a 7-year warranty and free RAC Home Start as standard.

  • 61.1 kWh LFP battery with 248 miles WLTP range
  • 207 PS and 288 Nm of torque
  • 0–62 mph in 7.7 seconds
  • 110 kW DC fast-charging: 30–80% in 27 minutes
  • 11 kW AC home charging capability
