Aside from the Jaecoo J5, Omoda & Jaecoo Malaysia has also finally provided estimated pricing for the Omoda C9 PHEV. Previewed in October, the flagship petrol-electric SUV is set to be priced at RM220,000, which is quite a bit higher than the RM188,800 asked for the regular AWD model – although in true O&J fashion, we expect the final figure to be significantly lower.
Just as per the J5, the C9 PHEV is being offered with a “super early bird” package for those who book from now until launch, although worth quite a bit less at RM4,618. This includes a RM3,888 “angpau” rebate and a complimentary vehicle-to-load (V2L) connector cable worth RM730.
No launch window provided here unlike the J5, but given that the latter is debuting next month – and that O&J has confirmed more new models are coming in the third and fourth quarters of the year – we expect the C9 PHEV to go on sale in the second quarter. So, April to June, then?
As a refresher, the C9 PHEV features an upgraded version of the Super Hybrid System (SHS) found in the Jaecoo J7 PHEV. While the 143 PS/215 Nm 1.5 litre turbo four-cylinder engine has been retained, it is instead paired with dual electric motors at the front – a P2 integrated starter-generator making 102 PS and 170 Nm, as well as a P2.5 traction motor churning out 122 PS and 220 Nm.
The J7’s single-speed dedicated hybrid transmission (DHT) has also been ditched in favour of a three-speed unit. This allows the combustion engine to help drive the wheels at lower speeds, increasing acceleration. Finally, the rear wheels are driven by a 230 PS/310 Nm motor, providing all-wheel drive and a total system output of 537 PS and 650 Nm of torque, enabling it to sprint from zero to 100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds. Top speed is a bit low, however, at just 179 km/h.
Under the floor, meanwhile, sits a 34 kWh NMC battery that delivers a WLTP-rated pure electric range of 145 km, and with a 70 litre fuel tank, the C9 has a claimed total range of 1,100 km. We can attest to this, having achieved an effective range of 1,190 km (939 km driven, plus 251 km of range remaining) to win the Omoda & Jaecoo Long Range Safari Drive competition in South Africa last year.
Fuel consumption is rated at 1.4 litres per 100 km with a full charge; whittle the battery down to around 20% and this rises to 6.5 litres per 100 km. The C9 PHEV can support up to 70 kW of DC fast charging, enabling the battery to be topped up from 30 to 80% in 25 minutes. It can also accept up to 6.6 kW of AC charging, so charging from 30 to 100% takes 5.5 hours.
