But inside, it is like an upmarket European car, with a great luxury finish,” they said.The team also applauded the E5 for how it drives, as this SUV favours economy driving over ridiculous acceleration times. Something other EVs are guilty of.Currently starting from $40,990 with Omoda Jaecoo’s New Year cashback offer, the E5 is offered in two highly equipped variants, which feature a wide array of safety features, a 61kWh battery with 430km range, dual 12.3-inch display screens and 18-inch alloy wheels.
